Where has the Month Gone?

It is hard to believe that it is already the end of March. I did get my informal swap packages out, along with the quilt blocks. Those seem to be taking a long time for some reason when they are really quite small. It is probably because no matter how hard I try, the blocks were either too small or too large. I had to add a border on one of them, but the funny thing is that the ones I received had the same problem. I had to chuckle. I guess I am a decent sewer, but not such a good quilter. I do better with crazy quilting where there isn't the need for being so accurate. I hope that my recipients like the things that I made and sent out. It is fun to receive packages in the mail and to be creative in making and sending out ones too. It can really make a day brighter!

Beautiful Weekend

It was a great weekend-temps in the 50's and I am over my cold-no coughing or weezing. Took Cricket for a walk, which we will start doing regularly. The kids
are all exercising it seems, so I think that we also need to get on the bandwagon
and get in shape. Especially since both pairs of pants that fit, tore big time-
like I can't fix them. Went to Walmart, which is where I had purchased them and
found that they don't have anything in my size in a tall. Went to the men's section
and found a pair that I will have to exchange for a bigger size, but I think they will work and at least they will be long enough. I will check KMart too. I do miss
going to the Eddie Bauer warehouse, which was only 5 minutes from my house. They had all the discontinued and returned merchandise and they carry talls. I may actually have to start sewing again to find clothes that fit, at least pants.
Knitting up some dishcloths and cleaning tawashi for the newest swap.
