Finished ! ! ! !

These are the first quilts of the year to be completely finished. This one is a quilt as you go and is made out of my stash. I even sewed up a couple of pieces of batting so it didn't cost me a dime.
I did the rag quilt next because I couldn't believe how much flannel I had left. To be honest, I think I have enough to do one more and then they are off to a charity.
I finished quilting this one yesterday. It is my goal to finish up some of my quilt tops. Love this one and was so excited to be able to outside and take a picture. There was no snow or wind.
Here is a close up of the quilting.

Magic Valley Symphony

Wes and I finally made it to the Magic Valley Symphony. I was pleasantly surprised by how incredible they sounded. They had a guest conductor, Jose Luis Egiluz, from Spain. All the music they did was also from Spain. They had a local acoustic guitarist, who did an excellent job with his solos. Missing from the performance was Music Director, Conductor, Ted Hadley. He had to go the High School district championship basketball game with the Pep Band. That would be his day job, not to mention the job that has a paycheck attached to it. Going to the symphony is like being at the circus for me. I just can't decide what to watch. This was a group of about 70 musicians. Some as old as my mother, while others were as young as my daughter. The concert was followed by a reception with punch and brownies. All of this for $8. All in all, a very pleasant evening. We started going to the Symphony in Stockton. Beginning band has killing our sense of what music was, so, I decided we deserved to he...

Political Agenda

I have been reading the buzz by upset parents who are worried that the President of the United States wants to make a speech to their children about education. I have some thoughts on this issue, as I have children in school. 1. I am not a Republican, so I do not understand the brainwashing theory. I mean, I have no idea what the heck they are talking about. The reality is, it won't matter what he says, because they only listen to the first 7 words (that is what one of my child development books said and started to watch kids after reading it --- very true). So if he is going to brainwash (?????) them, he basically has 7 words to do it in. 2. I think that it is wonderful that the leader of the nation would take time out of his busy schedule to talk to children. 3. Because of No Child Left Behind, there has to be a lesson plan to go along with it and make it standard based or educators can't take the time away from preparing the children for a test to watch it. 4. I want my chil...
