Paul: Are your sisters going to the dark side?
Me: No, they are shining lights in the night. Think Florence Nightingale.

Paul: But their clothes are dark
Me: Yes, it hides their stains
Paul: Stains?
Me: Blood, sweat and tears.
Paul: Whose blood, sweat and tears?
Me: Whomever needs comforting. I just said "think Florence Nightingale". You are not listening.
Paul (changing the topic): How many of these do you have?
Me: Plenty to make two quilts.
Paul: And who gets those quilts?
Me: Well, one will go to the quilt show next year and the other will be a lap quilt for a friend.
Paul: When do you finish?
Me: This year, over the Christmas break.
Paul: Cool.
I so enjoyed the process of making these sister blocks that a part of me is sad that it is over.
But I am thrilled that so many of you are making the blocks, sharing them with your guild members and completing these quilts too.
In writing and sharing the tutorial I invested a drop.
But the love and recognition, I received from you is an ocean.

If I missed anyone, please add them in your comments. Linking with Angela for ScrapHappy Saturday.
I got my flu shot. You should too.
In other news, I have accepted the fact that I need readers. Of course, Paul is amused.
Speaking of Paul, we celebrated our 12th anniversary by a long overdue visit to the beach at Assateague Island. We were fortunate to see some ponies.
I have finished another quilt and now that it has reached its destination, I am ready to show it to you. That blogpost will be next.
I will be linking with all my favorite linky parties. See full list on the sidebar.
As usual I'd love to hear from you.
