Do I remember how to make quilts?  Found these blocks in a stack where I left them before going to Germany.  I’m trying to ease my way back into my fabric world.  There is something so therapeutic about putting pieces together to create a new whole.

Here’s another fun quilt I put together this week from a stack of blocks sewn before we left.  these fabrics are called “low volume” because they are mostly background fabrics.  They are really fun to look at and play with.

John’s therapy is making cookies.  Today it was Puds for this evening’s Cookie Walk (the Sunday evening tradition continues!).  We learned about these ugly little treats years ago at a Cub Scout event.  They’ve been a family favorite ever since.  At our house, we call them “Puds.”
