I finished my very first nine patch block. I had to pick it out several times to get the seams to match up. I think it turned out very lovely for a first timer. My mother-in-law is teaching me to make blocks for a quilt. I have mentioned before that she has won several grand champion ribbons at our state fair for her quilts. It would be a waste not to gleam from her knowledge. I find it quite relaxing picking out colors and patterns (also picking out seam). I think I am going to enjoy it.
For every two steps forward, there usually a step backwards. My goal this year is not to take the steps backwards. Just move forward and don't look back.

Beautiful Day
It's a beautiful day. The sun is shinning and I love it. It's cold but I bundled up, went out and soaked up some sun rays. I have light deprivation, so any I chance I get to soak up rays I do. Doesn't matter if it's below zero, there I am out on the deck, face towards the sun. I sure the neighbors think I just a little off but I don't really care. I got the camera out and took pictures. I am beginner photographer. So mine are the point an shoot. I want to lean more about photography though. I have signed up for a community education class for photography that starts next month. I can't wait. I love taking pictures.
