Stretching my Scrappy Creative Muscles

12/17/2019:  https://quiltingismorefunthanhousework.blogspot.com Cynthia over at Quilting is more fun than housework "Oh Scrap" asked the question are you stretching your scrappy creative muscles?

January 30th, 2020: My creative muscles have been placed on hold,,, I started the above blog post back in December, but since then, life as I once knew it has been replaced with "Life after Chad" my Son in Law...There was a tragic accident, and my Son in Law has been taken away from my beautiful daughter, my Grandsons, and our family.  For now I am with my daughter and my Grandson's helping unpack, and paint their newly bought home.  I am also cutting up Chad's T-Shirts, Chad was a "T-Shirt with funny sayings on them kinda guy". He was a good hearted, fun loving man, and my heart is broken.. I'm going to cut the shirts up and make quilts!  What else would you do with T-Shirts?  So far I have cut 70 T-Shirts, this does not include his cotton, button down dress shirts which are hanging in the closet.

Until next time,
Happy piecing, happy sewing,

Sheila

Dear QUilting Nan - I'm reading comments left on my blog, of days, maybe weeks ago, and read your kind comment, and mention of your loss, your dear SIL. I am so very sorry - your poor daughter and all of your family. Losing someone who has lived their entire long life such as my husband is one kind of sadness, but losing a young person is a totally different experience. I am so very, very sorry for all his loved ones.
