This morning when I got home from Weight Watchers(yes, I watch my weight go up and down), Hubby was ready and we went Downtown Kansas City to the River Market and we got some fresh peaches and cream corn, bell peppers, and lots of spices.  I love getting my spices there, they are only $2Continue reading “What a wonderful Saturday”

I have finished all my unfinished projects and am wanting to start something new.  I know I have gotten into a rut and now is the time for me to jump in and try something new.  The only applique quilt I’ve done is the Sunbonnet Sue too many years ago.  I am now looking thruContinue reading “Need New Motivation”

Today as I get ready to sandwich a quilt to do the quilting on my split rail quilt the tv is going on and I realized I am tired of all the negative we are hearing.  The bickering you have on the political scene.  I have noticed the commercials for people running for office aren’tContinue reading “Sentimental Journey”

Saturday we had a great fair, until the thunder storm came thru.  We loaded things up and got home in time for the heaviest part of the rain to pass.  Alicia sold 3 of her baby dolls and is now making more. She also had a Black Panther one that went quickly.  Her girls teaseContinue reading “Wonderful Monday”

Today is hot and humid outside I decided to take advantage of down time(car packed for craft fair tomorrow) to look thru some photos I’ve taken of Independence, MO.  Hope you enjoy. Just a walk thru Bass Pro Park.    

Last night I went to my Quilt Guild meeting and enjoyed it so much.  Our guest speaker was Erla from GE Designs.  She made some of the most amazing quilts with 2.5 strips.  She calls it “Stripology”. You can find her on facebook.com/gequiltdesigns, or Facebook.com/group/gudrunsquiltcrew.  I wanted to purchase a pattern of hers and herContinue reading “Happy Tuesday”

This morning I took a walk around the yard to see what needs to be done outside.  This will be a short read and lots of photos.  These are from my yard.Enjoy your day.  Remember to take time to smell the roses.

Today brings a cool morning and sunshine.  My Hostas and Bachelor Buttons are all in bloom.  The Hummingbirds are swarming around the Honeysuckle.  Will be a beautiful day for sure. We are dog sitting for Alicia since she is camping this weekend.  It has been nice having a dog in the house again, but IContinue reading “Beautiful day”

This last week we went to Houston, Tx for a memorial for my sister.  Her 8 month battle with Leukemia is finally over.  We left here and made a few stops while we were traveling.  Got some new fabric. It is so great I don’t want to use it yet.  It is from Australia. TheContinue reading “I’m back”

Since the 4th of July is on Wednesday this year, and it is also the day payroll is due and we are not going to be at work, we are all working very hard to get it done today for tomorrow. So I decided to come into work early & sleepy. After about 3 cupsContinue reading “Monday.. are we done yet?”
