The Sunflowers Have Bloomed

Sunflower2 - 1

I now have all the blocks done for the farm animal quilt. 

It's a pretty laid back Labor Day around here. Nothing doing. For some reason, this has never been a big holiday for my family, even though we are a labor-loving family. My daddy was a member of the International Brick Layers' Union, part of the AFL-CIO. 

"They" say you can't wear white after today, but I never have paid much attention to that either. I don't wear much white anyway.

I missed acknowledging September 2, on which day Vann has been gone 14 years. Unbelievable. I still know exactly what his hugs feel like. And I can sometimes close my eyes and feel him sitting next to me.

Enough of that. I didn't mean to get maudlin.

I just realized I need to update my books read list in the left sidebar. I think I've read quite a few good books since I've added any to the list.

Love your lovely sunflower blocks and look forward to seeing your farm quilt in due time!

Big hugs as you remember dear Vann. This time of year I remember my mother and AMIL. Sweet memories, indeed.

Hugs!
