Time for an update

My rambling mind has been on overdrive. . and yes there are many updates, quilting and otherwise.  

With the wedding of my son Kevin to Michelle, I've hit the 25 queen size or bigger quilts in 24 years.  I know the average is a quilt a year but lately I have made 2 a year (to make up for the years I didn't have any weddings in the family). That's a lot of quilts!  Just finished 6 quilts for the middle 3 grandchildren too.  Have bed size quilts planned for the older 3 grandchildren and one for an anniversary (which I just bought the fabric for). . all this in the making while I wait to see if the last of my 5 kids will announce her engagement any time soon. . giving me a year to plan the last wedding quilt for my kids. . . and I wonder why I'm tired :)

Another challenge in my life lately is a new laptop. . . Windows 8 is a bear to learn - especially if I don't have a swipe screen on my laptop. . . it isn't intuitive. . things I've done for 25 years of computer use just don;t work like that anymore. . UGH.

keep posted. . .I'm trying to sort out this rambling mind of mine and will post tidbits as they organize . .

keep quilting!
