We are working on and trying to finish putting in concrete pavers along both side our driveway after pulling out trees last summer whose roots were lifting up the sidewalks and taking over the yard. Wow, has this DIY project taking awhile, but the pavers look pretty after all prep work and digging we have done.

I am finishing a project that I cut out pieces about three or so years ago for my mom who passed away before I finished it. I am happy that I feel like finishing it now, without the sadness I felt when my mom first was gone.  She never really sewed as a hobby as an adult, but was very encouraging and liked to see the quilts I would finish.

It is blues and white and is a pattern called "Ruby Slippers" in Kansas City Scrapbook by Atkinson Designs. I think I will call mine "Sapphire slippers" since I am using blues instead of reds, how original is that.

Maybe by next Sunday I will get something finished for my stashbuster report!
