squish

 The last few days I have been machine quilting non stop

with a little water coloring in between stitches.

I'm quilty of always wanting to get to the next fun thing.

Our house is starting to look neglected.


I'm loving the squish of this quilt.

in living color

 On two tables today...one very long table would save me a lot of steps.

I need some bright colors on this cloudy day.


These are for a quilt I am starting.
I love scrappy!

And how about this tipsy stack of coffee cups?

I'm glad they didn't tip over while I was working on them.

the watchers

 We spent last week watching our teenager granddaughters.

Kids go from babysitting to supervising to just needing alittle watching.

It's when they turn 16 that they need all three...if you know what I mean.

We spent one morning at the falls in Sioux Falls, SD



I tried to work on my watercoloring everyday we were there.

I'm going to perfect these carrots yet.


Today I am back in my little sewing sweatshop.

Home is where the Heart is

 We are back home on the range. It's always a long trip.

I have been in full mode ahead the last couple days. Is it called nesting?

I had a few blueberries we didn't use up so I made muffins.

Then after a baking session I got my watercolors out.

The muffins were definitely easier 

but I have been baking a lot longer than I have been watercoloring.

I have learned that all paper is not created equal. 

P is for Practice makes Perfect.
