Too Busy Too Blog

 

I've been so busy lately.

Two new quilts done and given as gifts.

Plus painting the barn red ☺

One of the quilts was done in fabric 

for my "Bee Loving Friend".

  

This is it on the design board 

before quilting or adding the binding.

I didn't take finished photos of

 

either quilt.

  

I guess that I was in too big 

of a hurry to give them away.

Anyway; the binding was done

 

in the darkest yellow. 

The second quilt was done 

for a dear friend that loves chickens.

I did it's boarder is the red

chicken wire fabric. 

Then it was time to paint

 

the barn!

This photo was when it was 

first delivered ten years ago.  

It was stained in a golden cedar.

In the past ten years it has faded 

and needed a face lift.

I decided to stain it with 

redwood stain this time. 

I stained half of it one day.

Then a sweet friend came over

and she helped me finish it

 

the next day.

All except the peak . . .

I didn't feel safe climbing the 

ladder that high, so one of

my wonderful nephews 

came after work one evening

and did the peak for me. 

I took this photo before 

the peak was stained,

but you get a good look

at how it looks now. 

Oh, my goodness, it feels 

so good to have it finished.

Now you know why 

I haven't been blogging.

Life is busy around here in the spring :)

Tomorrow is Good Friday

followed by Easter.

I pray that you will have 

a blessed weekend

filled with love  

and the fellowship of 

friends and family.

Until my next post,

God bless you all,

your blogging sister,

Connie :)
