One of many gorgeous sunsets. |
We're back from a vacation in Cozumel, Mexico.
We snorkeled, walked and enjoyed many meals at our favorite restaurant, del Museo or the Museum where we had delicious food and a breezy view.
This is my favorite breakfast, motulenos: two fried eggs over a crisp tortilla, topped with ham, cheese, peas, a delicious red sauce and a side of fried bananas. Absolute heaven! Is your mouth watering yet?
We snorkeled and it was fun when Jim fed the fish and I got to hang out with them.
I hung out on the beach, stitched some redwork and read a few good books.
Now it's back to reality. I've hung the spring quilts. This one is "Basket of Blooms" that I designed for the 1999 American Patchwork & Quilting Calendar. My friend, Darlene shared some of her vintage fabric with me for the project.
The center of this quilt is from a crib quilt pattern by "Little Quilts". I added the dogtooth border and the appliqued vine. I like to put it up for Valentine's Day.
My goal for 2012 was to finish one UFO a month and sadly, I'm already behind. Still quilting my Christmas quilt.
I am working on a series of Civil War Blocks by Barbara Brackman which I'm starting a year late and I'm a bit behind on that, too. Well, stay tuned...the laundry is done and I'm ready to go. I just might get something finished.
Wishing you many beautiful sunsets and lots of finished projects!
