Next projects completed





This was started a while back as
a friendship quilt with my "Potpouri"
group and they have all finished theirs
but I seem to lag behind. Have never
been one to rush things to just get it completed
I need to take time to reflect on the next step.
I also am not able to follow the instructions to
the letter, have to forever change the quilt to
my liking.
This is a peg bag that I have now completed
for my daughter and it is in Country Threads Vol 4 No 12
and as you can see I have changed it a bit. It was fun and
easy to make and I have also started one for myself.

Completed this!!


Here is a picture of the two pillowcases I have
designed and completed. Also the heart banner
was designed and made by me last year.
My Daughter painted this love roses picture
specially for me. We also made the furniture ourselves.

Just some snippets in daily life.









This is a creeper I planted and have no idea what
it is. It is only open in the mornings.
This is our 2 monsters the black one
is Bella and the other is Zazu
We have a very hot day at 42*C here today
and this is Bella on the lawn cooling off her stomach.

Our Anniversary!!!!

Yesterday was our 36th Wedding anniversary!!!
Can't believe it has been that long.
This was a yellow phase in my life.
Well we have survived this long and
hope it will be even longer. Thank
the Lord for taking care of us.
We have 2 kids and 2 inlaw kids
and now also have 3 gorgous
healthy grandsons too.
Wow so much to be thankful for.!!!
