Happy Birthday, Big D!

 

Day 152 of 2026

I have so many daylilies with buds on them, 

it's not possible to get them all in one picture, 

so I decided to concentrate on the one

 that is most likely to open first.

 

Day 151 of 2026

I have acquired two new puzzles. 

I've scrambled and solved the holiday cube,

 but it's going to take some research and practice 

to get the hang of the pyramid one.

 

Day 150 of 2026

I've been cleaning in my studio to enable me to get in there and sew. 

I found this under a stack of fabrics. 

Do you remember when I did the repair on the front of this quilt? 

After that I was stumped as to how to repair the batting and backing

 in a manner that will allow me to hand quilt the areas

 that are missing their quilting due to the original damage. 

I have an idea how to approach it, 

but for now it will have to go in a queue 

while I continue to clean up and out the studio.

 

Day 149 of 2026

I made a copy of a favorite salad 

from a restaurant we sometimes go to. 

It was really good 

and definitely needs to be on the menu again soon.

 

Day 148 of 2026

Puffy Checks Socks update: 

I promised to let you know 

when I reached the straight foot section

 of these socks. 

The decrease section on both socks is done, 

and I have am halfway to the toe section on my first sock. 

It feels like real progress.
