Nina - go lie down!


I am sure that Nina is shocked to the point of fainting that I am making ANOTHER blue quilt! I have tried to warn all of you that I am stuck in a very deep blue and yellow rut! At least there is no yellow in this quilt - so far! I was wanting something mindless to work on this afternoon and I already had all the blue strips and the squares already cut. So I sat down and started making ten blocks. Finished them up tonight while DD was doing her reading to me.

Thursday is DD's 7th b-day! Which also means Nina's daughters' b-days are also both coming up. Eva was born exactly 5 days after Maddie. We didn't know each other then. We didn't meet until they were about 5 months old and we both moved to Muncie, Indiana.
This is Maddie and Eva right around their first b-day. Nina made the cute dresses for them. Maddie is in the blue and Eva is in the yellow. We have been in Alabama for two and half years and I think the girls still miss each other. Maddie has been praying for "Eva and her brain" lately! Happy b-day Maddie, Bekah and Eva!

    And if I look realllll hard, I can see the hint of yellow in that striped fabric (horizontal), but I love the tones of this blue one!

  8. Well, if you're going to be in a rut, blue and yellow is a good rut to be in. Cute little girls, too.
