I finished cutting the light color batik strips last night. They look so pretty folded like this I hate to cut into them.
Here is the progress on my Christmas cactus: 2 blooms open and 14 (yes!) buds. The next 4 should all open at about the same time so I'll show it then. This is the most flowers I have ever had on it in the 10 or so years I have had it.
Marilyn gave me an award last week, and I don't usually participate in them. I was especially touched with the reasoning behind this one. It was to be awarded to blogs which show great attitude and/or gratitude. When I started this blog I decided it would always be upbeat and my favorite saying is "If you give away a smile you will get one back". I want you all to know that every day's post is a smile for you, the reader, and you have given me back many smiles with your comments. So, thank you Marilyn, and thank you readers.

It said if your ring finger is longer than your index finger that you tend to be good at math. My ring finger is longer and I am good at math, but it also said you would be good at sports. Unless quilting can be considered a sport, that one doesn't hold true for me. I am as clumsy as they come.
