Mary Ellen's Quilt Party

 This is a full program of the Waltons...47 minutes. Once again John Boy saves the day!
Somewhere in my inventory of sheet music is the song at the end I'll be seeing Nelly Home. I was surprised to hear it but was aware of it for a while now.

Johnny Cash's version of that song.

A Major Challenge

There are actually people who can turn this into a quilt but certainly not me. I do have a paper pieced deer pattern almost in the same pose that could be doable for a "kind of " like w/applique Santa for winter soltice effect. They resemble stick people only deers...haha. Maybe if I finish 6 or 8 quilts first, I can think about it. My goal these days is to do some hand quilting for an hour (or section) every night before I even try to sleep. It seems to power down my brain and I actually accomplish something instead of tossing and turning so that hour has something to show for non sleep. I am working on a large one I have been avoiding after I ripped half of it out. Should have done that 2 years ago. Anyway, I love the magazine cover ..80 years old and the color is fantastic!
