Welcome Summer!

 Summer is here!

 

Finally :)

 

 

I absolutely love cutting flowers

from the garden and bringing

them into the house. 

 

They say, 

"Make hay while the sun shines"

 

 

And now that the rain has slowed

down, that's what the farmer

across the road is doing.

 

 

I've had time to work on the 

quilt that I started last Fall :)

 

All of my blocks are quilted

with batting and backing . . .

 

Now I'm starting to trim them all 

to a 17 inch square . . .

 

And when they are all trimmed,

I'll start putting them together

in a "Quilt As You Go"

fashion.

 

 

 This method works so well for

large quilts, if you don't have 

a long-arm machine. 

 

Last fall I purchased this old

apron at a thrift store.

 

 

I can't remember what I paid,

but I remember thinking that

it was too much because of the stain.

Now I'm happy to have an old stained apron

hanging in my kitchen.

It's the first one I pick 

for a dirty job :)

 

 

I bought it because I wanted

to use it for a pattern.

so, yesterday I made this :) 

 

Well, that's it for today.

Thank you so much for visiting.

I hope you'll take a minute

to leave a comment and say "Hi!"

 

God bless you all!
