We aren't doing anything special today except having DS#1 over for dinner. He has a flight to catch this afternoon, so we're eating early.
I decided to do a post and let you know about the problems I'm having with Blogger. I have been reading blogs and commenting, but the comments don't seem to go through. I usually see a "sign in" notice at the top of any blog I am visiting, including my own, and when I click on it, it takes me directly to the page we go to when we want to start a new post or change something on our blog page, etc. Even when I'm on someone else's blog! And I don't have to sign in, I am already signed in.
But, when I want to comment on someone else's blog, and I type something in the comment field, it doesn't recognize me with my name in the bottom of the field - and that's when I don't think my comments are working. Last week, there was one time when my name did appear in the comment field, but now I can't remember which blog it was, so if you did get a comment from me, please let me know.
I'm sorry that you haven't been receiving my comments and I don't know how to fix it. Any advice will be appreciated. I did leave some feedback to google, but I don't know if it will get to anyone,
Well, enough of that! On so a few pictures.
This is a wall hanging that DH liked a lot. I like it too. I had made one to sell and decided to make another one for us.
A long time ago I shows pictures of some blocks that my Mom gave me. The blocks were made by my Grandma sometime in the 30's, 40's or 50's. I had planned to make them into a bed quilt, but I got to thinking about it and in talking to my sister, I decided to make a wall hanging or 2 out of them and offer to give the blocks, either as they are, or made into wall hangings, to any of my cousins who might want them. I just finished one wall hanging using 2 of the blocks. I plan to keep this one for myself. It measures 22" x 40". The next one I make will be a blue tulip and I'll put blue fabric on the corners to make a smaller wall hanging.
I recently realized that I don't have a patriotic, red-white-blue table runner of my own! I have several other table runners, but I need one for the summer holidays. So I started making some 6" sawtooth stars in civil war fabrics and I will probably alternate them with blue squares. I might even make a r/w/b table topper for my dining table. This is what I have so far and I plan to make some more red stars, but haven't decided how many.
Today is a day to remember the sacrifices made by so many so that we can have the life we have. I am very thankful for our wonderful country and the many men and women who keep our country free (including my son and DIL).
