I am currently working on some things to put on my Etsy site. I wish I didn't have to sell quilts to help support myself, but my disability check doesnt begin to support me.

Thanks to encouragement from a friend in California, I am working on "sugar skull" quilts and items. The "Day of the Dead" seems to have a big following on Etsy and it's really fun to make sugar skulls and skeletons. Some of my friends think it's morbid...I think it is fun.

I have a beautiful yellow and blue pineapple log cabin that I made for my daughter--but it has been crying out to be quilted for at least a year. It's queen sized and such a hassle to spread out and quilt. I keep putting it off. I really need to finish this quilt as I need the safety pins for other pieces!

Sometimes you have to take a step back and spend some time with yourself, and put all your "work" away. I need to do this soon...just sit and think and play with my fabrics and threads. Its time.
