Checkerboard quilt

 Wow, making this quilt was a challenge. 

Trying to match all the points was not easy.

I don't think I will be making another one for a while.

Bob Newhart - a biography

 

"Bob Newhart, The Life and Laughter of an American Treasure" by Michael Seth Starr is an informative book about the life of Bob Newhart.

I remember both series, The Bob Newhart Show and Newhart, were very entertaining. Starr takes it further in researching how Newhart started in show business. In 60 years Newhart was a recording artist, television celebrity and in movies. While also touring the country making appearances in nightclubs, colleges and Las Vegas. Newhart had a formative career, playing the straight man and getting laughs from his pauses in conversations.  He could hold a moment and make you laugh just from his facial expressions.

The book is a comprehensive overview of a successful life long career. The book is well worth reading. Especially if you were a fan of Newhart, who passed away in 2024 at the age of 95. Leaving a legacy of stand up comedy.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from Net Galley and the publisher. All views expressed are my honest opinion.

Antique quilts

We recently visited several antique malls and I was surprised to see so many quilts on display.

And finally this little gem.

It was fun to scout out these old quilts.

Checkerboard

 Thanks to my techy son, I am navigating the new phone. So many different options. It's hard for me to grasp a lot of the new technology.  Including downloading pictures to my computer. But..... here is my progress on the checkerboard quilt.

Landscape Quilts

I love landscape quilts. I've only made three, but they entice me to make more.

 Linda's Landscape Quilts are so interesting and helpful.

Enjoy!
