Making Quilts
This week was just the same normal stuff. School, dance, t-ball, Young Women's...oh ya that is something I can write about; at Young Women's we started making rag quilts and my neighbor gave me an old sewing machine so last night my mom came over and showed me how to sew the squares for my quilt. I was able to get half of my squares sewed before the sewing machine jammed, now I'll have to wait for my neighbor to help me. I am so happy to be in Young Women's I'm learning so many skills that I never caught onto before! We have made quilts that are with two sheets and you tie them together and so now I am going to make Max and Hanna a quilt for Christmas. I'll post the pictures of all three of my quilts when I finish! Another great skill I learned was baking banana bread, I never knew it was that easy! I never thought I liked it until during my mission when my mission president's wife made it for all the missionaries and so I tried it and loved it! Maybe I loved it so much compared to the other choices I had to eat in Taiwan! To sum it all up, I love my calling!

You had a hard time with the food in Taiwan? Hee hee. Do you remember the impromptu lunch that a member gave us and I ended up eating most of your food as well as mine? Oh, what fabulous times those were!! Love ya!
Rag quilts are my sewing specialty. Well, considering my limited sewing experience calling them a specialty is exaggerating it a bit :) They're so cute though, you'll be glad you made them!!
