Thankful time of year


Remember this runner?
I still need to back and quilt it

It is for me
Started years ago and time to get it done 


Did I quilt it?
Um.....nope

I had the 2.5 squares to make another 

I am thinking for my friend hosting Thanksgiving

I need borders on this one then hoping to find just plain muslin in the stash to back them both and quilt

It was for my table but I kinda like the way it dresses up my couch 

What cha think?

Trees are leafing out

Thank you Wanda of Exuberant Color for this project

I am loving it
The bright cheerful colors
The easy piecing
The forgiving style

Fun fun

Panel time


I saw this panel
And fell in love
I found it and bought the last 2
I guess it's out of print


I was so excited to see one of the coordinating prints so bought it too


The only had 2 yes but had this pumpkin one as well


One is elegant
The other more whimsical

Love them both

I am making for a dear friend
Who is going through a lot

She has her whole house in fall year round
One for her one for me

Non quilty days lately


This morning I cut up my tomatoes and made a sauce for dinner

I will  cook pasta and use this on it

Tomatoes, onion, garlic, parsley, basil and thyme 

Smells good in here
I want pasta for breakfast lol


These still face me
Tons and tons of grapes 🍇

I decided I will make the juice and can it
Then later as I have time can make more jelly

The jelly i made I gave to the 2 people who provided the grapes 

The next batch is mine

Been busy here
Ever think there is a cloud over you?

Got bjs credit card
Took 2 months to activate
Then when the lady at the desk activated it she said she was giving me 5 percent off my purchase that day for the trouble 
Sweet or so it sounded

All of a sudden I get a new card in the mail
An upgraded one with a yearly fee 
Of 156

Um nope.. not doing it
AND the paperwork with it says they can sell my info and I can't opt out 
I DON'T THINK SO

so Dawnie has a fight on her hands to straighten it out
That card can go where the sun don't shine if you know what I mean

Then getting drivers license is a nightmare
My computer died
Need appointment online
Called. Can't get anyone
So went in person 
Was lucky I had my paperwork he took me and squeezed me in
I am now legal again

Why is everything these days so darned difficult
Nobody wants to do their job or help you out. It's awful

And I got a package I ordered of coffee
First email when I ordered said 58 bucks
Cool. Said delivery between the 8th and 12th

Yesterday tge 13th I get an email saying delivery will be made but price is changed to 180 bucks!!!!
Isn't this a bait and switch 
I give up
The devil is surely working overtime these days

UGGGGGGGGHHHHHH

My Fall stuff getting out
Little by little

Are you decorating to cheer up dreary days?
The darker days already have me feeling a little off

Ugh 
Is it April yet????
Can we just skip winter?
