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

craft guild show and tell June 2014

This is a photo from my craft guild potluck show and tell. Samples of my zentangle, a fabric bowl. cross-stitch cardinal for a chair pad done for my Mom. and a friendship centre piece. Centre piece was a gift to me. I did the same embroidered middle and made a table runner for the exchange. The one in the photo was made for me in the exchange. The cross-stitch was done using a wet and pull away canvas. Hard to believe that it is June 27 already. Where does the time go. Even when I am not going out to a job the days are passing very quickly. I had some time in my sewing room earlier this morning. Happy quilting. :)Carol
