Abi's quilt is finished...Packers division champions..."unbroken"

Just shy of a year since beginning this quilt. This was Bonnie Hunter's mystery last year, the first time I did it with her following. Enjoyed the pattern so much decided it would make a great Packer quilt for Abi. Sewing did not take long, but the hand quilting did, just with other projects I was working on. This past fall decided to concentrate on doing the quilting during Packer games. I actually finished the binding last evening and did the cutim quilt label today with the fancy stiching on my fairly new sewing machine. ( I won a football contest 2 years ago and with the winning bought my computer singer sewing machine which I love..just have not done machine quilting yet...)


Yesterday the Green Bay Packers claimed another division championship. So the season continues. So if they make the Super Bowl they will travel to Arizona and will will miss them by 2 weeks as we will travel down February 20th. We'll see how this turns out.
We saw the movie "unbroken" today. I predict that the movie will win an Oscar. Great story and well directed movie.

View from Mt Lemon I. Arizona. Getting axious to travel here. Will have to wait until next year and finishing out my remaining time at work as a Clinic Resouce Leader (RN). Uncertain what direction the organization will go. All I know is I am already being "shamed" for leaving. Un- invites to meetings has already begun. I am ready to move on.
Tomorrow will work on some "Dutch Treat" blocks and maybe sandwich a quilt I sewed using the jelly roll race using Downton Abbey fabrics. Maybe can be a hand quilting project for travel to Arizona.
