...sssssorrryyyy for the sssshivering.... but it got down to 40 something last night.
Total craziness.
But since I used to a girlscout a hundred or so years ago I was prepared.
I finished my ZippyStrippy bedspread just in the nick of time.
In fact, yesterday, I made four trips back and forth to the laundromat to do the wash, dry, wash, dry cycle on this California king-sized quilt!
And it is fabulous. And warm. And cozy. And lovely. I think I might get a rag-quilt making badge for this one. Or at least a snipping fabric badge cuz that was a big ol' clippin' good time getting this one ready.
And in other, totally non-related news DID YOU KNOW THE POST OFFICE HAS THANKSGIVING PARADE STAMPS? Why did my mind jump there from the rag quilt. I fear I may be loosing my mind even further.
Oh wait! Yea, I can make this whole stamp thing into a very natural segue because GIRL SCOUTS HAVE STAMP COLLECTING BADGES!
Yea, I feel better now. That makes sense.
Right?
Sigh.
Merry Christmas 2024!

Jenny - you made me laugh! Thanks! And it's cold here in Kansas City today, too - they're talking SNOW! I'm a Girl Scout leader, though, so I'm prepared, too. (NOT!)
Thanks for stopping by my blog! The "15 for 15" so far is in reference to National Blog Posting Month - I've managed to post every day for 15 straight days so far - hoping I can do the "30 for 30" by the end of the month.
Why? I have no idea. Just because I can, I guess!
Stay Warm!
Beautiful quilt! Hurrah! for a job well done!
Oh! That quilt is gorgeous and so cozy looking! :) You know what I love about your blog? You always have so much happy energy and it brightens my day!
Hi Jenny!
Love your cozy quilt! I can't believe it is colder in AZ than NYC! I actually went out today without a coat --it's in the high 60's here which is so warm for mid November :-)
I also love the Thanksgiving parade stamps! I want to go to the parade this year, as for the first time in many years I don't have to cook the meal for 25+ people, but I found out today I definitely have a stress fracture in my foot..boo hoo...so I'm not supposed to walk much.
I was never one to follow rules, however, so maybe I'll still go!
:-)
Totally love the quilt. Just in time is absolutely right. It is cold here, too!
I used to be a girl scout myself...
Love, love, love the giant Zippy!! Perhaps one day I will work up to that size..... In the meantime, I'll just drool over yours! :)
Wow, cool! No, no make that Wow, warm!
