I don't quilt, but for some reason I decided my mother needed a rag quilt. Turned out fine (and she loves it), but cutting ~200 squares drove me up the wall. Will I make another? Not anytime soon. Learned a lot, though, and my already great respect for quilters and their art has only increased.

WIP Wednesday #Quiltsky! I needed a break from the news. Finished piecing my first FPP project. Need to remove the paper, then embroider details. Hoping to mail it Saturday for my parents' door in assisted living. Then jump on February's block, to send it before the start of the month! 🙃

I don't normally post political content, but this is just too good.
If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious.
