Touched by an idea

I was recently visiting another forum I belong to and a lady brought up the  idea about quilting a block for each pound that they've lost.  They just started some type of weight loss challenge is how that came about.  I thought it was a pretty neat thing.  Something I am sure someone here has thought of before. 


Many of us do something to commemorate our weight loss and it's a good thing to not forget how we got here, why we were successful, why we had our ups and downs, etc.

Well there's my post.  Have a good evening!

Blessings,

Nina

LOL 

that was something a lady had commented on. I thought it was funny.  I would never get warm, if I had to continue removing a block!!

I have friends that have put a charm on their charm bracelet for every 10 lbs they lost or a bead on a necklace-I don't quilt but it sounds like a good idea.  Quite a few people have bought journey lockets-where they put their starting weight inside as a constant reminder of where they came from-that number never changes unlike the "number of pounds lost".

Good idea.  If I had to do do a block for each pound I've lost, I'd have a good size quilt, that's for sure!! LOL

Give my best to Sue!!
