(Quilt made for me by my grandmother many years ago.) |
It is amazing to me how quickly life changes. Two years ago we were a family of five. My husband, myself, and our three boys: Cheetah, Panda, and Monkey. Then we adopted our sweet Bunny. We became a family of six and my quilting time drastically decreased. Blogging was pretty sporadic.
One year ago I found out I was pregnant (an extreme surprise as we didn't think we could have any more children). My quilting time decreased even more due to lack of energy. I stopped blogging to take care of my family and prepare for the baby.
Older quilts were brought in to decorate the nursery.
Half a year ago our sweet Kitty was born. Now we are a family of seven and feel truly blessed.
Three months ago we started hearing more about Covid-19.
Now, not only has our family been changing but the world has been changing. Our boys have been doing online at home schooling, and Cheetah had a virtual high school graduation.
Miss Kitty is our little sunshine and a great reminder that life goes on even with trial, tribulation, and pandemics.
So while I haven't made as many quilts in the past year, they have been getting lots of use for snuggles. Blogging will be sporadic, but I'd still like to share the quilts and other projects that I have finished.
I hope you are all safe and well through this pandemic.
XX,
Jasmine
