Not the day I planned.

Today I had all these huge plans to get one of my 2 dragon fly quilts finished or at least most of the way done. The plan was today show off the quilt or maybe have it or something finished.  At around 2 I got a call telling me that my dad had a stroke and was taken by ambulance to the hospital.  Long story short and 5 hours at the hospital later, he only has a infection and is being shipped back to his nursing home.  So instead of a quilt to show off you get to see my dad.  He is better and home I came.






What do I find when I get home but a package from the "Fat Quarter Shop". The other day I won a Jelly Roll from Such a Sew and Sew on the January Finishes Linky party.  I had a great month with 7 finishes.  And of course the win.  Now I need suggestions on what to make with my new Jelly Roll.  I plan to make a quilt using the idea found on a quilt from  http://www.redpepperquilts.com/ called Quilter's Palette (that link will take you to the quilt) It has a 5x5 block in diffident color ways it will take me forever to get enough to do a full quilt but going to use some on that.  I am looking for any suggestions on what to use the rest of the Jelly Role on. Now that I am home, I think I am going to make a stab at my Dragonfly quilt. Oh and one last thank you to Such a Sew and Sew.  I have won 3 other items this week also will link back and show them off when I get them too.  But this is my 2nd win ever, but the first to show up so YEA!!  At some point in the future I plan to have some type of give away if you have thought or ideas to make it fun let me know.  Think small though, I am new and don't yet have a lot to give.
