Rosemary, my DBIL introduced us to our first Mac computer and it looked about like that! It was so much easier to use than the PC back then. Now I have to use both because of the programs that I need.

I'm not getting a lot of sewing time in this year, but I did finally finish my Alphabet Sampler quilt. I paid someone to quilt it the first part of the year then after a few months of looking at it I decided the green thread she used on the sashing wasn't quite what I wanted so spent the month of May taking it out and redid it on my Janome with a lighter thread in June. The first try still didn't show up that well on the front but looked good on the back, so I did double work on the sewing and added another lighter thread. The design is not as pretty as the original but I am happy with it.

I found out today that my miniature quilt made from the Ruffled Roses pattern will be going to the Houston Quilt Festival. So that means I'm going to try to go too. This will be my first time to have a quilt in the show.

Rosemary, loved your hidden treasure. Getting organized is an unending project for me. I understand about the DH wanting you to have a slinging out session. My DH told me the other day it is finally dry enough in the back yard to pull a trailer in and clean out the basement. Most of the stuff there is my stuff, all my sewing stuff and lots of other stuff too. I do have a few things to clean, dispose of, or just get organized. Well, maybe more then a few

. Of course, if he glued the legs of the 5 dining room chairs that are down there waiting, it would give me more room to work on the other stuff.

One of my DGDs offered to come help me. She wouldn't understand. Her mom just throws everything away. I am not a hoarder yet, just disorganized. I will surprise them someday!!
