Caution...curve ahead!!!

Almost 14 years old

She loved the snow

Curve indeed.... You just never know what life will throw your way. Last week was not a good one in our household. We had to make the most difficult decision to put down our older dog Zoe . Her health in the last week had been getting worse. She wasn't eating much and her mobility was getting bad. The last straw was when she refused to eat a milkbone...her treats she never turned down.She needed help to get up off the floor. We spent a heartbreaking weekend with her and on Monday called the vet. Our fur babies are such a part of our lives...but we knew it was the best thing.

Luckily I was kept busy the rest of the week getting the trailer ready to go to my family reunion. It was a weekend full of laughter and catching up. So now another week has begun and I am playing catch up, trying to get all the work done so that this weekend I can relax. Why?!?! Three friends are coming...three quilting buddies and we have three days of sewing ahead of us! I think this might actually become an annual event, now wouldn't that be great!!

So I haven't been sewing but I do have lots of binding to do. This quilt has been increased from 60x80 to 82x96 and the machine quilting has been extended to cover the additional borders. I just have to attach the binding and sew it down. But with it being a flannel quilt, I am looking for a few cool days to do that.

For those regular blog readers...I will try to write more often...don't want to disappoint my followers. Stay tuned I am sure this weekend will hold lots of fun. Thanks for hanging in there!!
