Widgetworm

I'm just havin' some fun with the latest trends.

Embroidery hoops and buntings are everywhere.

And apparently so are mice, they have been leaving

me unwanted  messages around the house. They will have

to go. But this little guy can stay and hang around
.

In case you wondered?

Widgetworm = small fidgety-wriggly child 

 That is what I am guessing was the thought when

my Dad gave me that nickname. My brothers nickname

was Pattywaxel, and I used to secretly wonder if he had

alot of wax in his ears. Pat + wax = Pattywaxel?

made sense to the 5 year old me.

And this is where Mr. Mouse sleeps when he is not

hanging out with the scissors.

Cozy Quilt

I finished my first Cozy Quilt

I joined a local Cozy Quilts group almost a year ago.

Shortly after my Dad passed away from lung cancer,

I was talking to a friend about the Chemo-Caps

project that my Dad and I had been working on

during his months of Chemotherapy and Radiation.

And how I missed that special connection we had

making and giving those caps away.

She introduced me to Cozy Quilts Ministries, where

groups of ladies get together and make Quilts

for cancer patients. I feel in some small way

that Dad is doing it with me. So if your  looking

for something to do that will warm your own heart
