It's March!!

March is coming in fierce here in Boston where I am visiting the youngest daughter.  they are calling Nor'easter.  There is nothing I dislike more than a cold wind and rain.

And with a new month that also means a new UFO project!!






So according to my list, my March Quilting UFO is  the Swedish Postcard quilt:


I finally found a quilt for this pattern when I was in Ft. Collins last summer.  I will have to find another project for this month as I am saving it for my April Quilt Retreat.


The knitting UFO for March is the 15th Street Wrap:


I have some wonderful yarn that I have had in my stash for quilt awhile and it will be perfect for this pattern.


My progress of the February UFOs have been a little slow.  I wanted to use my Cricut Maker to cut out all of the petals, leaves and center for my Sunflower Wall quilt.  Getting it upload to Design Space was just about as far as I got.  

The same goes for my knitting UFO.  I have started Madden's sweater but it became something totally different:


I am doing this in purple with a grey accent color. I am going have a lot of knitting to do to get this done by the end of March as well as the March UFO!!

Here we are again...

As I started my blog adventures again, I decided to spend a few posts reflecting on life during the hieght of the pandemic.  But now, after a few months of various vaccines being available, and a few months of mask mandates being lifted and the hope of life returning to normal.... mask mandates are now coming into effect again.  There is a surge in variants of COVID, especially the "Delta variant".  There are increases in those testing postive and increases in those being hospitalized.  At this time only 45% of Kansans and 50% of the US population are vaccinated.  We are a long ways from herd immunity people!! On Friday K-State issued the mask mandate again just as employees are heading back to campus today. USD383 issued a mask mandate for everyone and as far as I can tell when kids return in the fall: I just feel like we are going backwards instead of forwards. Most of those that are being hospitalized are those who are not vaccinated and many of them ar...

Let's start again....

 WOW...Where do you start? You would of thought that I would of wanted to do this blog during the pandemic...but I didn't.  I always wonder why I start and stop...why I can't keep up.  Maybe I run out of things to say or maybe there is just too much going on to share my thoughts on a blog post.  Who knows? What did get me starting to think about blogging again was a question that was asked from someone I follow...."how do you record your projects, do you use Instagram, Facebook, blog, paper..?"  Which led to a bigger question... what do you want to record... your life, your projects, your travels??  That is alot to put out to the world.. But I think what I do want to record are my projects...the hows, they whys and especially the "whats".   What yarn did I use to make that teddy bear, what size needle did I use to knit that blanket, what was the free pattern for that quilt? So here I am again attempting to document yet again.   I am real...

July Happenings...

Since these are catch up posts for the month of July, here are the other happenings.... What do you do with all of those flowers left over from a wedding?  You decorate your house with them! Hubby had a birthday...  And a visit was made to see great-grandpa in Lawrence.  Someone loved moving the bed up and down.  Three generations of the Pacumbaba clan These mug rugs were made for hard working colleagues who had dealt with the fire recovery and are still dealing with the fire recovery.  The inspiration for the mug rugs came from here . Mimi got a new house cleaner... And as a reward she got to spend lots of time at the pool... eating snacks of course! And Mimi and Papa did some baby sitting...  We did not know we weren't supposed to play with Mama's makeup... And another visit was made to celebrate dad's birthday... And since it is July, it is peach jam time! We got our bikes out for the first t...
