It's a top!
99 Charms
40.5 x 49.5
I was reading about Nancy's (Grace and Peace Quilting) lovely project in memory of her husband. One of the baby quilts she is making is called 99 Charms and was inspired to make a few for places I donate baby quilts.
I have accumulated a box of charms (5 inch squares) given to me by others over the years. Maybe it is time to work on emptying the box. Since the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) "color" of the month is pastels I pulled out 99 pastel charms...
...and made a top.
The theme in my sewing space this month to move UFOs forward WAS "reproductions"; however, with hubby's health issues and surgery pending and lots of doctor appointments an hour away I decided to change this month's theme to "free range" meaning "as I wish" which means "mindless" sewing for now. Also a lot of John's family will be in town for the annual family reunion campout in the county park down the road. Also I still have a lot of gardening tasks to do.
And sew on...

I probably won't post anything tomorrow but we will celebrate our 53rd wedding anniversary! Oh gosh, how can that be?
Sunrise, sunset
swiftly fly the years,
one season following another,
laden with happiness,
and tears.
