The sound of hovering wings?



Complete at last

all of the patterns for the bird quilt -- including the 2 totally new ones that we decided yesterday needed to be added!

Nice that we're now at the stitching point




this is the colorway for the first bird that I will be working on

we've decided to start at the top right and work downward -- just something a little different from other pieces

today I will be ironing all of the fabrics and hopefully starting the first block

Oh yes, and a countdown for all 591 pieces will be added to the side bar soon


Here is the first harvest from our little garden

one crookneck squash and 4 peppers

the DH cooked the squash in a little oil and garlic powder for dinner last night, and it was wonderful --

he also used the little peppers in a "salsa sauce" that he created to cook over the pork chops

yum!!

its really nice to know that with these veggies there will be no questions of getting sick because they have some nasty bacteria!

so today there will be ironing and and beading and stitching and quilting (only 3 more rows to do on the lambs!) and knitting and tweeking of patterns for bears -- the usual stuff in the studio!

up an at 'em!
