                                               GoodDeed waiting to be finished
 
 
 Ive done so many Linus quilts and so many church quilts I thought perhaps time to spread the wealth  to new places.
 For Jan Feb  I pulled all the  red white & blue fabric I had and started sewing.. so far we have 6 tops!  These will be mailed to  Alycia in CO who participates  with Quilts of Valor.






 The red white & blue fabrics are still on the table  ,, tho the pile has shrunk !.  I'm getting spring fever to get in the garden but being Iowa, I don't expect alot of activity there till middle May. 

 Maybe Ill paint the kitchen ???... Maybe Ill switch to  springy colors..?  Maybe Ill  finish  some tops on hangers......???  Maybe Ill even update this blog more often ~~ Stay tuned ~ ~
