Yesterday was a struggle.  I just could not fall asleep Sunday night so the lack of sleep showed it's ugly head yesterday.  It was hard to keep my eyes open yesterday.  Despite being tired, I did manage to get some quilting done on the DWR quilt.  I needed something easy to do so I continued on stitching a line of quilting at the binding edge.  Yes, I know it is weird that I already have the binding on this quilt.  I sewed it on once I got the melons at the outside edge quilted.  I am half way around the quilt with this line of stitching.  When I sewed this  block back together the floral fabric was just a bit small so I added a piece of solid to make it bigger.  I just happened to stop quilting here yesterday at this spot.  
I did struggle with getting a few things done around the house - washing sheets, cooking - so I didn't quilt either.  I didn't go out and water the plants; I was just too tired.  I will have to water them tonight being that we have another 90 degree day and no rain in the forecast until Friday.
Here is a picture of the two baby quilts and the Gee's Bend quilt that I pin basted this past weekend.  I made the baby quilt tops earlier this year out of scraps.  That didn't make a dent in my scraps.
Question - on the new blogger format when I go to approve a comment that comment is not being copied to my gmail.  It did on the old blogger format.  Does anyone out there know what I need to do to make that happen?  I like the private side conversations that I have with the ladies that comment when I reply that are not posted for all to see.  I would appreciate any help I could get!
Here are pictures of the kids on the quilts.  They were a big hit and much appreciated by the entire family.  The little boy said he like all the details.

I found those comments in my Junk folder. Not sure why they go there but I redirected them so hopefully some will come up properly next time.
It's fun to gift the toddler with a quilt when the new baby gets ones, isn't it? And they get so excited.
I hope you get some rest and feel better soon.
It's so great to know that quilts are loved! I need to get busy on a baby quilt soon.
