Excuses from a non-posting blogger

A month!  Yes, a month, since I last posted. Pitiful, isn't it?

Although, the reasons for my 'non-posting' is quite sad.  My mother-in-law died unexpectedly shortly after starting this blog.  So, me and my husband hopped on a plane for the ~20 hour plane trip back to Texas.  Her funeral was September 21st, which happened to be my 8th wedding anniversary. 

We stayed in Texas for about 4 weeks.  I did manage to stop by some quilt shops (oh how I miss these) and buy about 50 pounds worth of fabric and sewing accesories. I know the weight because we don't want the dreaded "overweight"  baggage fee.  So we hook our bags on a fish scale to weigh them.

We are now back in Oman, thankfully.  I have actually started cutting the fabric for a baby quilt. I'll show work in progress pictures soon.

Take care!
