General Conference Weekend

I have been a wee bit behind on my blog posts yet again but not too far behind this time. The first weekend in October we had General Conference. For those who aren't aware, I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, aka LDS or Mormon. Every 6 months we have a General Conference where our leaders speak to us. It's a wonderful Conference lasting 2 days where we can get inspired and receive comfort. If you are curious about it you can go here.

During this time, Travis and I sit and listen/watch it on our computers- love technology, and play either games or sew. I took on the project of cutting out 2 1/2 inch squares. I don't know how many I cut, but I took quite a bit from my scrap bins.


I also was able to get a whole quilt top done too! I can't share pictures of that one just yet, but I was thrilled with how much I got done.

There were amazing talks given and I can't wait to read through them again once I get my Ensign next month.

I envy you for having such a nice and calm weekend.... my life is way too stressful at the moment... but hey: you and your hubby deserved a nice and calm weekend... I'm really looking forward to see the quilttop (the finished quilt) ;)

I usually do handwork during Conference, with a notebook close by. One keeps me awake and one keeps me focused. It looks like you did really well.
