When we started homeschooling I
News flash: PTO Days are for ME. Turns out I actually "need" quiet, uninterrupted time every so often
Hurray for Grandpa and Grandma! I'm not sure if they love PTO days quite as much as the boys do, but they're very gracious about it.
And a PTO day for the boys is a Project Day for me!
This is "Luau Lulu". My neighbor recently gave up quilting and gifted me with a box of fabric. The good news is that she knows I like bright colors, and there is a lot of good stuff in there!
The bad news is, she had already cut it, without pre-washing, into ??? shapes. Some squares, some rectangles, and some bizarre remnants - apparently with little regard for the pattern printed on the fabric.
*sigh*
It's been a logistical challenge to use some of the fabrics. But I couldn't resist Luau Lulu :0) And with a friend expecting a girl any day now...
I'm making a very simple baby quilt with the red Luau Lulu and a bright, sunny yellow. Very simple. Six-inch squares, to show off the bathing beauty.

Sounds like fun. I wonder if I can convince my kids' grandparents that I need regualr PTO days?
I have an award for you on my blog.
That's so cute! Congratulations on the baby! I didn't know.
I am tagging you for a meme. My last post was for the meme, about my wild plum treet.
I'm tagging you. Go to the 6th picture on your computer album and post it and tell a story about it. Then tag 6 more people!. Get some blog fodder going!
Deborah,
Thanks for the award :0)
And good luck with the grandparents... PTO days are a major blessing.
I love my kids. I love having them around. I'm glad we're homeschooling. And I would survive without my PTO days... but it wouldn't be pretty!
Civilla,
A FRIEND is having a baby, not me :0) Though I have my moments of feeling "clucky", it doesn't look like we'll be having any more little grasshoppers.
I'll have to figure out the computer album (is that the Picasa thing?). I just load the pictures onto the blog and forget about them. Loved your plum trees, and the thought with them.
Post a picture when you're done! I totally lack that sort of talent, but love seeing what other people can do! That fabric is totally cute.
