| Watermelon Lime Margarita |
It's Cinco de Mayo so I'm celebrating by naming my latest quilt Watermelon Lime
Margarita. I haven't quite finished this bright, cheerful table
topper yet, but final size will be 36” square. It's been very
relaxing to take my time with this project, spending an hour or so
each day.
All I have left is
sandwiching the layers, quilting and binding. But not today, as I
plan on partaking of a few Mexican beers and/or margaritas with chips
and salsa. I wouldn't want my stitching to stray off course.
Arriba!

Happy early Mother's
Day! I'm lucky that I am close to my mama and get to spend time with
her often. I certainly don't wait until Mother's Day to let her know
how much I love her. Last week we went shopping for shoes, ate
lunch, and enjoyed driving along country roads looking at spring
flowers. At eighty-one years
young, she is still a witty and wild redhead, and I hope I'm that sassy in another twenty years.

children who disrespect and ignore their mothers will one day find
two things to be true. One, their own children learn by observation;
and two, it will be impossible to pass through the pearly gates.”
