I know, it's been a while since I've been able to give y'all an update.
I've been working like a mad woman at the Bux during the holiday season and after. I've barely gotten a start on my Florida Gator quilt, just 4 of y 10 rows have been sewed together. I did manage to make it to my hardware store last week and pick up some wood for my new project. I haven't filled my new car with planks of wood yet, so that was a challenge to do. I've only gotten as far as cutting the wood pile. Outside. In the 40 degree weather. With snow on the ground. It was very funny to watch my big German Shepherd lay down on top of a snow pile to watch me struggle with 8 foot planks, cutting them with my miter saw, on the freezing ground.
I "officially" start my last semester of nursing school on the 14th and am planning on finishing my table before that. It'll be challenging since I'm working a boatload.
Who doesn't like a challenge though?
Until next time,
Sarah

Short and sweet
It's been a while, I know. Almost 4 weeks. A lot has happened in those 4 weeks. Aside from having to study for two exams, keeping up with the pups, the house and the hubs, and a week long vacation to Florida...we have been busy!
I'm still LOVING my ladder quilt rack. In fact, I have plans in the near future to start my first quilt using the amazing Florida Gator fabric I picked up while we were in Florida. I'll be getting various orange and blue fabrics and piecing it together.
Three weeks ago, my husband and I decided to make a quick trip to see our families. Luckily, both families are within 15 minutes of each other. Here's a couple of pictures from our trip :)
We had a great time in Florida with the families!! It was a good trip away for a short time. Hopefully next year we can take a month off and see some places.
While in class today, I starting getting the itch to start some more furniture.I've been looking at plans for various things to put in my house. Hopefully one of these days I can get them started!! But for now, I'll be figuring out how to piece a quilt together.
Until next time,
Sarah
