Friday Fun Run

Image

Thanks, Sara, for the great Croatan run this morning. I couldn’t help feel a little nostalgic…we took this route the first time we ran together.  Geez, was that a lot of moons ago. We considered this 6 miler a “long run”.  You introduced me to run/walk 9-1.  I remember eagerly watching my non-GPS watch for the next walk!!  Yeah, I love Friday Fun Run through Croatan.  It is definitely hard to beat kicking off the weekend with 6 miles.

Oh, and hey!  I am planning on working on Tara’s quilt tomorrow.  I cut the shirts last night and will be able to sew it together tomorrow.  I am pretty excited… you know how I love USNA “quankets”!  Maybe we can have a knotting/wine tasting evening next week?

Talk soon – Enjoy your FRIDAY!

PS.  Don’t forget to start bringing iPhone with you on our runs next week…the sunrise is getting earlier and earlier!

New and Improved!

You won’t believe the changes we’ve made!!

First of all, it’s all about US! We’ve determined that blogging about quilts is boring. As cool as they may be, they aren’t compelling. Now, we don’t necessarily think we are either, which is why we wanted to focus on the quilts in the first place. But the more we see of other people’s blogs, the more we realize that the human story is the one worth writing and reading about.

Just in case, though, people are as uninterested in us as we think they may be, we’ve decided were going to write for ourselves and each other. We run together most days, but there is still so much to discuss! So what better place to do it than in the blog format, where people might take something from our conversation or even chime in. If you care to add to the discussion, please do.

And we’re still making the quilts/quankets/blankquilts. We’re actually going to have some pre-made soon for purchase. As well as some starter quilt ideas, in case you feel you would like one but either don’t feel you have enough t-shirts to complete a quilt or can’t think of a theme. We really started this endeavor with the idea of helping people, so let us know if we can provide de-cluttering service. Thanks everyone!
