2024 Ends

My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: Loving others.
~Bob Hope

Quilting

It’s been a long year. Not the toughest one I’ve experienced but my resiliency wanes. Less energy to “move mountains” but more remembrance of loved ones who’ve passed and more visits with those still here. Quilt finishes slowed significantly. I have a mental list of ones I’d still like to make. One resolution is to work only on those… Well, mostly on those. 

Blogger frequently fights me. I have trouble adding photos, commenting, and formatting. it. I started this blog to document my quilting and to connect with people with similar interests. I’m grateful for the friends I’ve met online. Even if you can’t comment, several of you email regularly. Although Blogger is a legacy product, I’ll keep using it.

The quilts finished this year are on my 2024 page. Although my personal promise was to finish each in turn all the way through, a few were set aside. Such as that quilt from four leftover blocks. Wow; it's from 2022. Time flies.

I'm also way behind on BB2. There are ideas but not much time or energy right now. Hopefully that will change after the holiday. 

Reading

Dr. Mukherjee has written an excellent history of cancer from its earliest written records through the latest research developments. Although it’s written for laymen, you’ll need to pay attention to get the most from his book. 

Wishing all love, inclusion, and acceptance. 
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Enjoy the day, Ann
