Happy Graduation Class of 2024 and a few Sassy Stitchers

Meet Moe.  He was my youngest nephew's constant companion. He graduated Preschool with him and

 

his Mom pulled him out of hiding so Moe could graduate High School with Josiah on May 17..  This guy has been everywhere. Mmmm where will he go now. Congratulations to Josiah and best wishes in the next chapter of his life. 

Josiah's was the youngest nephew and the last one to graduate. Now to wait for the great nieces and nephews to graduate.  Thank goodness I have a few years before that starts happening. 

On Saturday May 18th David and I drove in to Katy to celebrate another graduate, Jackson Sperry. His dad used to work with David. We had to drive down The Grand Parkway and we saw the wind damage to the power line towers.  How can the wind twist those towers like that? But obviously it happened.  A lot of the Houston area was without power but The Sperry's had power in Katy so the party was on. One graduate and 3 more to go..  We had a good time visiting and the food truck had some really good tacos and the mariachi band was good too.

  

The coming home on Hwy 6 I captured the flooding from the Navasota River. It's crazy. The second picture is someone's property. That should be dry land. Sorry the pictures were taken while David was driving 75mph.

On Monday (5/20) it was time for the Sassy Stitchers Bee. Some of these ladies were overachievers I tell you.  Connie completed a pretty bargello quilt.  I want to do one, one day.  Love the colors. 

And a couple other ladies are still working on their mug rugs. It's a quilted coaster to hold a snack and a drink.

Cordelia is working on her wonky star block for a future swap. I might try to do the swap but not sure yet..   

And my fellow book clubber and now quilty friend  

Debra is working on embellishing her quilt blocks for her grandson.

Now check out this adorable pillow Nancy made but what was so amazing is that she made her seams match. You can see them. Holy cow!

This one is called a one block wonder or a stack n whack. The fabric did look like poinsettias. This belongs to Brenda. She cut a piece of fabric up into strips then cut again and then sewed them all back together to look totally different.  So pretty!  

All the while I sat at my spot and cut out two quilt tops to get sewn together in the next 3 days.... Did I do it?  mmmm Stay tuned for the next blog post....

Until Next Blog Post..Knock, knock. / Who’s there? / Yah! / Yah who? / Ride ’em, cowboy!  Anonymous
