Design Wall Monday - October 25, 2021

 Good Morning Quilters!  My quilting progress has been slow this week. 

Life has been full though, as we attended another wedding.  It was a wonderful time of celebrating our Granddaughter Alexis as she became Mrs. Blake Freed Saturday night.  They are so happy and so are we.  It was a beautiful day filled with love.  Here is a recent picture of them:

Here is a picture of me from Saturday night.  I’m wearing “my wedding guest dress”  that I talked about before the last wedding we attended.


I added a lace shawl because the wedding was outside in Michigan, and the day was sunny, but a little chilly.


So I have very little to show you today, just a little more embroidery on the very last May Day Basket square.  Block #30:



It will get finished this week, as I am taking my sister to the hospital in Muskegon tomorrow and it will be a day of driving her, and waiting for her while she is there.  She is going for a fistulagram, which is an X-ray checkup of her fistula.  A fistula is a connection made between a vein and an artery (in her arm) that is used for her dialysis treatment.  It will be an all afternoon process for her, and I am sure the embroidery will keep me from worrying more than I should about her.  I am thankful I have embroidery to do.

What is your plan for quilting this week?  I saw some nice finishes posted last week.  Good work!  

Please join in the linky party below.  Thank you to those who link back to this post and also mention Design Wall Mondays in your post.  You are my kind of people!

Celebrating a dear granddaughter's wedding is the perfect excuse to step away from quilting. Good wishes to the Freeds. You look lovely.

You looked lovely in the photo, your dress looks very nice. A shawl? It was cold here on Saturday in northern Indiana, you would have needed a coat! Hope all goes well with your sister, glad you have embroidery to keep you distracted.

You look lovely in that dress! Congratulations to the newlyweds. I'm excited to have 2 family weddings coming up this spring - a nephew and a great-nephew. It's been awhile since we've had a wedding to celebrate.

Lovely way to spend the day--love in the air. Your outfit looks lovely. What will you stitch after the last basket block?

Congratulations on the wedding! It is so good of you to take your sister for her dialysis. We all should be more grateful for our good health.
