What a great day! I was so happy to have time to read and sew. I'm practicing my quilting, and decided to piece together nine/4.5" squares. They turned out pretty darned cute, but I now know that in order to make a quilted pillow case that will fit a 14 x 14" pillow form, I'll have to cut the squares at 5.5....du-uh! (I think I need to sharpen my math skills).

Now that I've started quilting, I think I'm hooked! It was soooooo much fun! My stitches aren't too small or too even right now, but I know that with more practice, I'll get better. I hope so anyway.

I suppose I should take pictures and post them. Perhaps someone out there can give me some good pointers.

In the meantime......I'll just keep at it!
