I am writing with a very heavy heart.
I am going a head with what I had planned, BUT…
Well…I tried, but goals change…sometimes really fast. I had good intentions about going back to the gym this year. Really solid plans of course a new outfit, new shoes, half the reason to go !Free Quilt Pattern
But here’s the thing… (having a thing is like, I got a guy for that project) I’m back to swimming every day instead. Turns out after 2 weeks and 5 visits my knees, my schedule, and my general attitude all voted for I am staying with the pool. No loud music, no mirrors, no pretending I enjoy machines. My steady pace, quiet water, and a reminder that moving your body doesn’t have to make me feel “Am I doing it right?”
So, my only buy a month plan was good, my start small plan as good and the weather changed from the 50’s to the 70’s, have invited me back into the pool of possibilities of feeling better.
Quilt Tip of the Week – NEW Rule
Quilting counts as exercise.
If your smartwatch disagrees, throw it in the bobbin drawer.
If you’re in the mood for something simple and comforting, I’m sharing a favorite beginner friendly pattern this week. It’s squares and triangles, my how to for squares, and for triangles. It works beautifully with fabric you already have, or for a bit of fabric shopping therapy. Here is the PDF for you to download, NO SIGNING up, just click and get, print and it’s yours. My Cross Squares Blue Quilt Block has a finished size of 10″ x 10″.
What’s New Or At my Etsy Shop

Right now, I’m working on a project that’s still in its “trust the process” stage. The block is drawn, the colors are still deciding what they want to be, and nothing looks right…yet? I keep telling myself…that it is okay.
And it truely is, Beth Ann
