This made me laugh way too hard! Especially since Mr. Wonderful just installed a backup camera on Oscar, the Jeep.

Finally finished another puzzle. It had three extra pieces and was missing one.

Penny likes to get up on this shelf under the table, but then she can’t figure out how to get down.

Saw this at Goodwill. My Mom had one just like it. Oh, how we loved to play office with it!

Our very first orange. 🍊

Have a great day!

We have been on vacation! We went to Colorado and met up with Mr. Wonderful’s siblings at his sister’s cabin in Colorado. Here is Pike’s Peak.

The sunrise from the backyard.

Saw these on the road up to the cabin.

Gracie loved traipsing through the woods.

We saw lots of wildlife.

Her property is so beautiful!

Winslow and I loved chilling out.

Penny did too.

They were all great little travelers.

Now I’m tired! Have a good day!

Can you tell that I love crosshatch quilting?

Using my design boards.

Now to find a binding. I don’t think this is it.

Have a great day!

I had a couple pieces of fabric on my table and decided to try them out as alternative colors for this little project.

I like the red best and I have a lot of red scraps that would work. But in the end, I decided to just cut more blues. It was suggested that I use more of the large swirly print in the layout I showed yesterday. That would have worked well, but I didn’t have any more than those few squares.

So today I’ll start sewing rows.

Have a great day!

The final step for this quilt along came out last week. I laid out all of my pieces.

I loved Lori’s version, mine? Not so much. I love the pattern, I’m just not happy with my large blue squares.

So I hope to decide where to go next with this. I could cut out more blue squares, or maybe I could choose a different color. Red? Chrome yellow? Hmmm….

Have a good day!

Where do you all store your quilts? Mr. Wonderful recently decided we needed to clean out closets in our two guest rooms. He was not wrong. We had some boxes we hadn’t opened since moving. Many of them had quilts.

So he bought some bins so we could at least store them all in the same closet. Clearly, we soon ran out and had to get more.

There are three more of the short bins under the bed in this room.

These are in the other guest room. See the cabinet in the corner? It’s full.

The loft railing is full.

The ladder is full.

This rack is full.

And this armoire is full.

I also have a number of quilts hanging on the walls.

And my little quilt vaults are full.

I have given away around a hundred and fifty quilts in the last three years. And I still have too many.

First world problems, I know. At least I have a better idea of where to find them now.

Have a great day!

Yeah, this is me….

Thankfully, this is also true.

I love to see quilts I’ve made in use!

Bahahaha!

Another fun batch of cut and tumbled stones.

Have a great day!
