Wisdom teeth

This morning my son had his wisdom teeth removed.   He was quite comical when coming out of anesthesia.   I spent the day making mac and cheese and fetching drink and pain meds as needed.

TV time while he rested allowed me to pick up hexies for some work.

Last diamond

I have made it a mission not to duplicate any fabrics in the diamonds.  Can you believe I didn't have just one more 2.5x2.5 square of plum? 
My grandmother had the philosophy that errors were reminders that no one is perfect.  So here is one more example of my imperfections.  
Now I just have a few half diamonds to complete to finish off the sides.
Let's hope I can keep up the momentum.  Any suggestions regarding how to quilt?

Beginning of the last

The end is in sight!.  The diamond at the bottom that is pink and maroon is in place for the last row.  OMG I believe I may get this top pieced this winter.

Take note to the "help" our pup Irma provided....grrrrr.

Almost there

Crappy lighting because my daughter took her lamps to school for her dorm room.  I spread this out on the bed and realize I am actually closer to the finish than I thought!..

I have all but one of the final flowers made and just need to attach those and finish the edges.   Wow the end of piecing the top in sight!

Back at it

I have picked up my grandmother's flower garden to work on again.  I hope to finish piecing the top in the next few months.

Hexies and me :)

I started a hexi quilt using english paper piecing more than two years ago.  I knew when I began it would be a long term project as I plan to do this completly by hand.  I work on this when I have found snipits of time.  Last evening I found a short time while waiting and watching my son practice with the praise band at our church.  What a great group of people they are, Guz is an amazing musician and they have all (myself included) learned a great deal from him.
