I am happy to report no one got hurt--- and later spotted hubby checking out OTTlights online... hummm, maybe not such a bad thing after all! :)
And so at 11 o'clock tonight I am posting, squeezing in my Clam-shell report for September: showing my 2 added rows of clams! Yeay!
( he thinks I am crazy, but he loves me... and took this picture!)
:)
and here they are: and I must say: I really like how it's coming along!
:)
...and maybe it will not be put away this month until I panic and need to report at a quarter to midnight on Oct. 31st! That would just be creepy! LOL
kisses,
your fellow clammer,
V.

Just lovely clams.We are lucky our men still love us in our mad quilting world, the things we do!
ReplyDeleteYou make me laugh Cinderella :p lol
ReplyDeleteLove your clams and the beiges / browns are so wonderful!!
Oh Valentina
ReplyDeleteI fully appreciate the sentiments in this post. Love the 4yr olds but and the feeling of best laid plans being being interupted.
Do not dispair we all have the same feeling and since you always seem to rise above it all will be o.k. After all there are no quilting police.
Your clamshells are very warm looking like late afternoon sun.
i think posting on Haloween would be cool. Might need some orange though.
Happy First of the month "Pinch and a punch for first of the month" respone "Hit and a kick for being so quick"

Your clamshells are beautiful and inspiring - I might even start some too. Thanks for sharing

ReplyDeleteOh I just love autumn colours and it is very autumnal here in England today! I am working on elongated hexies with a centre square, my sanity saver in the caravan!
ReplyDeleteOh aren't these fabrics lovely! Ohhh V, they are exquisite.
ReplyDeleteHi Valentine, what a beautifull warm autum colors you used. It's great that you find the time to do any patchwork at all with your young ones, smashing things around. Just try to keep on doing your great job.
