For Mom

So this post is for my mom. Who I am sitting on the phone with at this moment. I just love cell phones. My mom and I can sit on the phone for hours, not even talking and it doesnt cost any more than my regular monthly bill! Thank goodness for cell phones, goodbye long distance fees! Well anyway, I have started a new quilt. It is a nine patch. I did it once with her when I was at home, well actually I can't remember I think we may have done it at my house on one of her many trips out here. Anyway I have started a quilt with that pattern and I'm posting up some pictures of the first square I did and the first row. I tried calling my mom a few times and after being frustrated that I couldnt get a hold of her I went and acutally figured it out on my own! So here they are:

As you can kind of tell by the picture, the row, on the left side is slightly larger than it ends up on the right side. Oh well, no ones perfect. And neither are any of the quilts I've ever made! Well there is the beginning of one of my current projects. I also just recently finished a scarf I'd been working on here is a picture of it hanging from my door.

Since the beginning of this new year I have decided to be more productive. I think I'm doing a pretty good job at it. I even have a journal that I write in everyday to help myself see what I have accomplished during that day and other things that I want to get done in the future. Some short term and some long term that will happen over time! It has been going great for the last two weeks so for me that is a good sign! And you all get to reap the benefits of that becuase then I post up a new blog and show you my progress! Yay for progress! Well I hope to get this quilt finished soon becuase I have quite a few I want to do this year! I think I have figured there is always something that can be done and that is why I have multiple projects going at one time. Yes I have my new quilt project but I have also started a new scarf. That will be number three when it is finished. Well anyway I think I have started blabbering on about non-important things! Enjoy the pictures!
