A Day of Carolina Blue

Feeling the gratitude...of Mr. O'Quilts having everything possible for comfort on his journey.  Of, having my sister and daughter around for laughter and fabric loving and care giving. Of knowing that my grandchildren are safe and sound and so loved.  Of watching the colored leaves glimmer in these days of Carolina blue. . Of friends lifting me up out of despair into the light.  For family traveling from Ireland to encourage us on.
 A big thanks to Katie and Muggs for the wonderful gift of taking the children today....a gift worth a million dollars on this teachers' work day.

Here we have Dylan, age 4 helping Aunt Emily prime the pump for Granddaddy's tube feeding.
  Care giving is a family affair.
 The HSTs (half square triangles ) from the other night on the design wall to cheer me up.
 And, one more pillowcase:)...On Black Friday, JoAnn's fabric usually has a huge flannel sale. Two years ago, it was like $1.88 a yard.  Last year, it was $2. 29 a yard.  We usually go in the evening when the crowds are all home exhausted, shopped out, eating dinner.  There is no one in the store.  It makes shopping a pleasure:)
Opiates for my husband; Pillowcases for me; children with friends.....a lovely day.
