Grandma O'Quilts Gets a Vacation

The finished vintage feedsack on my wonderful bed.
Vacation for me is five days off with no one here..
Peace and quiet...doing anything I want..
Yesterday, I had lunch with pool friends.
Today I went to a guild Sit and Sew...All day....laughing with friends...sewing of course
I snipped the threads on this  quilt...all done..will snuggle with it tonight.
Top bought from Ellen Guerrant xo
Here is our Linda making her sister a birthday apron.
Such a surprise this morning to find a present from Linda
A package of hand made dishcloths with ginger cookies inside..xo
A snippet of batik with Salmon running...Alaska

Today I made yellow pinwheels for the next baby quilt...
from Marie...a British cookie tin...I love tins..
 My favorite vacation is a stay-cation with no one at home but me..
Children with their mother and her husband's family for Easter,  my son off with friends, no extended family drama,
Sewing and lunches with friends...reading and napping...
No cooking or cleaning.

Since I have been exercising in the pool, my new hip is no longer painful.
Another miracle in the O'Quilt's household.

Easter is about hope.
Today, Life is good.
May you have peace and hope at Easter and Passover..
