Motivation Friday

Friday, May 7, 2010
Cold, windy, wet and dreary here!  Not too much to motivate me.  But late last year I pieced a QOV.   I didn't post pictures on my blog as I hadn't given it to Sgt D.   Sgt. D works where I volunteer.  This was the 4th time he has been deployed.  He has small children at home, and I know this is hard on the whole family.  But he just shrugs, and says he has to go.  When I think about America, I think about Sgt D--quietly patriotic.  


Here is Sgt. D and his quilt.  The pattern is a free one I found on the internet--but can't find the link at the moment!  

I did sew on my camper project quilt, and have about half the sashings on my disappearing 4 patch.  I should get more time to sew over the weekend.  

The weather will keep me inside, I want to work on my garden and flower beds, but 40 degrees--wind and rain--nope, I will stay inside!


Wishing you a great weekend wherever you are!

What a wonderful gift for Sgt. D! Thanks to Sgt. D for serving our country and Thanks to you for making sure he *is covered with a quilt*!
