I'm back!!

But really haven't been any place. Just busy with my garden. Lots of tomatoes- I canned and froze them AND gave them away. Also lots of cukes. My family loves refrigerator pickles so made some of those. Not much time for quilting but I did get a little handquilting done. Think I am having sewing machine withdrawal pains ; ) so hope to get in my sewing room next week. We are planning on spending the weekend relaxing at our son's house on the lake. Hope you all are getting lots done. Have a good weekend.

Hail stone


Just thought I would show you the hail stone that fell in SD. It is the largest on record and weighed almost 2 lbs-measured 18.5 inches around and over 8 inches across.

And The Winner Is---

Congratulations to QuiltDoodles who is the winner of my giveaway. If you will send me your address I will get the FQs in the mail. Thanks to everyone who entered-I wish I could give you each a prize.
Had a really busy week-end so won't get to sewing today. Celebrated 3 birthdays- our DS, a nephew and my good friend- all born August 1.

More Quilts




Have a few more quilts to show you. It is such a beautiful morning here that I am going to be lazy and sit out with my coffee and enjoy. Just mixed some dough for some caramel rolls and then when it gets too warm am going to hand-quilt on my quilt. We have been having lots of storms in our area. A few miles west of here they had a hail stone that measured 18.5 inches around. It is thought to be a record. If you click on these pictures they will enlarge and you see the detail. The blue candlewicking quilt was a raffle quilt.
