Out Of Touch

-

Well Thursday our very pregnant daughter called saying she was having contractions 4 minutes apart pretty steady and her Dr. told her and her fiancé at her appt. that the baby was coming in the next 48 hours. Please come now she was afraid!

So Friday the contractions slowed down, my husband had her out running around hoping they would start again. He will probably go back home Saturday to stay with David until Zoey is born if she doesn't make an appearance soon! Me? I will be right here. Michael works 12 hour days and my daughter is alone at home without a car. Funny thing is I don't drive! But sometimes in a woman's life she just needs her Momma! The look of relief on her face last night as she flew into my arms took me back to when she was little and in need.

Well I have finished my halloween quilt for all the world to see and first thing my daughter's dog (Ollie) does is lay down on it! He knows a comfy spot when he see's it!

The front (don't have details today) the fabric info is sitting by my machine at home!

The back! I loved this panel (also by the sewing machine) I picked up at a little quilt shop in Northern, West Virginia.

I always have Peaches and Cream to keep me occupied while we wait! I am sorry that I will not be doing my blogging job for a week or so, but I will try to get to someplace with wi-fi this next week. Thank you! No baby yet! I will try to keep you posted. Pray for a healthy Momma and baby for me! Please hang with me! Lisa

    I love your Halloween quilt! The back panel is great. Prayers to your daughter and the little one who is waiting to make a grand entrance. Love that Sugar and Cream color-keeps tempting me to buy it, but I am trying to destash my yarn a bit!

    You are all ready for Halloween 2013! It looks great. That's awesome that you were able to be there for your daughter - of course she ran to your arms. Even when they are new moms (or soon-to-be), they still need their mamas. (((Hugs)))

Cartwright Seam Ripper Giveaway

Welcome my friends and those who maybe visiting for the first time! Today, I am so excited to introduce you to a true West Virginian Artesian, Greg Cartwright , of Cartwright's Creations . His items are sold in historical shops throughout West Virginia. He is a lover of reclaimed wood of historical nature and creator of works of art! Greg (Cartwright's Creations) & I A note from Greg Dear Readers I have provided two seam rippers to Lisa so she can have one and one to give away. They are both made from beautiful old growth oak which was reclaimed from the original train depot in Weston (Lewis County), West Virginia. Train service was established in Weston around 1880. This wood is representative of a great part of my passion for this venture in woodworking for me – that is finding wood with a story to it. I must admit that my main focus is pens and pencils but it really doesn’t matter what I am making as long as it is from wood (although I have recently added pens...

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don...
