A few blocks for Quilt of Valor

With only an hour to sew yesterday morning, I pulled out some strip sets that were already sewn together for QOV blocks.

There are 24 of these now, including these 7 made yesterday.

Once a month, on the last Wednesday, a group of retired staff (from the school district I taught) gathers for coffee and lunch.  The group includes teachers, librarians, and office staff.  I look forward to that lunch group every month!!

Following lunch yesterday I went grocery shopping to stock up as we have 2 grandsons staying for a few days of "golf camp" with grandpa.  I even baked a pumpkin pie from scratch, using an old (WW2 era) recipe I found in a book.  Because sugar was rationed during WW2, this recipe used honey instead of sugar.  Not bad!! You can taste the honey.
