guild quilt July 12

Another guild quilt. Had a great visit yesterday with Dave's cousin her daughter and her 2 grandkids. Newest one is 2 months old. Cute little guy is Ryder. Locklyn is still just as cute. He rode on the garden tracker and went in the boat in our pond with Dave. Got down to my sewing room late in the evening. I am at present working on my hexies. I have one 4" butterfly made and am working on a second one to back one with the other for a centre piece for the table. Happy quilting, :)Carol

guild show and tell

Two items for my guild show and tell. Nice summer day, today. Got into my sewing room for a short time this evening. Happy quilting, :)Carol

garage and recycle bin paintings

Outdoor paintings by my daughter, Jennifer. The big one is on the side of a garage. The grouch is on our recycle box. She has also been painting alot of new bird houses. They are all over the yard. Had a really nice day for Canada Day. Chris and Sara came of dinner and then Chris made a bedside table for his room after dinner. Cooked a wild meat roast. Likely deer. It was given to us and not labelled so I am not sure if it was deer or elk. It was good what ever it was. Good a little bit of sewing done. I am working on paper pieced airplanes for the quilt I am working on for my hubby. This should be the last border. I am quilting it as I go so when I get these borders done the quilt will be done. Happy quilting to all, and Happy Canada day for yesterday. :)Carol
