Nice Sunday. Mom and I went to the Delmar quilt show. Walked around looking at quilts, and then we did the vendors (of course we did). I fell in love with a little quilt by Jo Diggs. Simply beautiful.

Came home via the grocery store. I made meatballs and a whole lotta sauce (known as red stuff around here) and baked not only the meatballs but a lot of that yummy chicken italian sausage I’d gotten. That was easy. Much easier than frying. Ron and I had the last of the lasagna tonight.

Then we did a quick photo session to get slides of the new quilt as well as the little Journal quilts. Didn’t take long – amazing what the right equipment will get ya besides good slides!

Yesterday I spent the whole day making and sewing on bindings. Whatta deal! I’m actually getting pretty good at sewing on bindings completely by machine.

Quilting this week took a little detour to a little quilt that wasn’t even thought of last week. Hey, that’s what happens sometimes. Stay tuned for a photo. Interesting how that happens.

Sometimes working fast (as in – oh, look how quickly the deadline for that is rushing up!) isn’t a good thing. There’s a fine line balance between getting into the zone because there’s a time limit and not having a lot of time to think things out. Sometimes everything works out great, sometimes you have second thoughts but it’s too late. But, I guess if you don’t try, you don’t try. In the long run, it pays to get the idea sooner rather than later, if only so that it’s been sitting developing in your head rather than being made up as you do it. At least that’s my experience.

So here’s my feeble attempt to increase my indexed links for blogshares. I know you’re all dying of curiousity as to my portfolio anyway.

Now we’re into the down-to-the-wire, chicken version of blogshares. May 1, all accounts are reset and you’ll only carry the cash you have forward. No stocks, except 1000 of the stock you claimed. Here’s my list of current or recently owned stocks. My total worth is around $4100. Not bad…. I’m shooting for $5K.


Update: see next post for list of past and present stocks.
