Quilting

I know I have 2 quilts partially cut out already, and one baby quilt almost finished.

But here I am staring something new. But I say this isn't so bad. Not nearly as bad as I am with knitting ;) The baby blanket only needs 1 1/3 more edges sewn shut and the center tied off. VERY simple! The other 2 quilts got put away and I can't remember where....

So! I have 5 sets of matching charm packs. Enough for a twin size quilt top I think. There are 20 fabrics in it. I want to make a 9 patch variation. I just need to decide on the center. Up close, pretty hard. From across the room I am thinking the green. I hope I am right. There are no extras. Here is a picture of them all together.

Dieting!

Urg!
It can be SUCH a pain!
But I am sticking with it this time
So far I have lost 9+ pounds and 4.5 inches

thing I can't believe is the Dr charts say I am 100lbs over weight. I just can not fathom myself at 125. I have not been that since I was a Freshman in College through the 1st year of marriage! Do they not know how LONG ago that was?! OMG.

The good thing is, since January I was a 22 pant size. The 20's are loose and the 18's are snug! This is progress :D Now If I can get into the 16's by Summer.... THAT would be AWESOME

125lbs is a size 10 btw......
