Cherries


As if the broken arm wasn't enough for one summer, Speed split his chin open last night at our Care and Connect picnic, a good half inch wide. I was going to take him to the hospital for stitches, but there was a nurse in our group and she fix him up. Good thing! I was not looking forward to several more hours in the ER.
Today is Shop Hop day in the Metro area. I'm going out with a new friend and keeping my eyes open for red, white, and blue fabrics. Or cherries. I can't resist cherries.

    Those cherries look awesome! I love that little bowl -- I bought my Dad those for his cereal last year -- now I wish I'd bought me some too.!

    HI Karen
    I also love red and blue and pink and purple and green and ...I think you get the picture.. I hope you had a fun shop hop-

    I don't know if you like cherry quilts but if you do - Kim at Kim's Big Quilting Adventure was making a cherry quilt ( you will have to back into her older postings May or June I think)- there also was a cherry quilt in one of the recent Fons and Porter magazines - I think the July/August issue.

    Happy Quilting.
    Regards from A Western Canadian Quilter

garden panos from 2023

 Last year, I made some effort (not thoroughly successful) to capture state-of-the-garden pictures every month, including panoramas stitched together on Photoshop, in order to get the whole view of what's happening.  So here's a little recap of the garden in 2023! early March April May June August It appears that I missed July, and either didn't take or didn't save this project in September, although we didn't have a killing frost very late into the season - we were still harvesting a few things in October.  As much as I loved the lettuce that was growing in the tunnel, and getting an early start on a few things, I'm not a fan of plastic anywhere, especially in my garden, so I am looking at options - cold boxes with old windows, etc.  I'm planning to start my 2024 garden this month - pea planting, planning, and seed starting in March!  What are you planting?

Night

Trixie (as in Speed Racer) and Stitch (as in per inch) Night My kitten walks on velvet feet And makes no sound at all; And in the doorway nightly sits To watch the darkness fall. I think he loves the lady, Night, And feels akin to her Whose footsteps are as still as his, Whose touch as soft as fur. Lois Weakley McKay ... a childhood favorite from The How and Why Library. Thank goodness my parents moved last year and sent this book my way. Otherwise, I would have just the first line running through my head forever!

Spring Means Baseball!

I've had this idea for a knitting pattern in my head and it's finally come to fruition!  I am still polishing up the pattern, but here's a quick peak:  PS:  There's more than one size and this one is too big for me but it was the only one I had "stitched up."
