Baby Quilt Top done!!!


How is the time to square it up. Then get it ready for batting and backing, and basting. I quilt on my Viking one plus. I think I will quilt it in wavy lines, with variegated thread. I will keep you up dated as I go along.

I took some pictures with my film camera. Most of the pictures are of the animals. I got a good picture of my favorite coon Pretty Boy. I want to show you here on the blog. I have been feeding
him most all of his life. There has been times when I will not see him for weeks, than he shows up with a family. A mother and 3 babies. He will be so proud. Isn't he pretty!!!
See you again soon, I hope.

Big Storm! No Power!

Hello! Yesterday we had a really big wind, lightning, rain storm! During that storm, the power went out! That was about 1o a. m. The power finally came back on that evening at 11 p. m. 13hrs no lights or water or A.C. no nothing!!!! It was a bad day! I was making my Nonday soup.It is 4:26 a.m. June 30 now. I am back to finishing cooking my soup, and blogging. Thank-you for stopping by! Tom was going to put a picture on the blog, of me and my Grand-daughter last night,but no power! He is sleeping like a baby now. Boy it was hot yesterday.
By for now, Fern

No sewing room today!

It rained last night about 1o nimutes. It was acid rain. So this morning I went out and hand sprayed the herbs and vegetable plants we have . It was the first rain we had had since May 29th. If you do not spray the acid off it will hurt the plants. It has been HOT and very dry!! We had ,had 7 days of over 100 degrees. With another one to come today.
Well sweet beans & animals maybe tomorrow.

I have pieced all but 3 blocks for my baby quilt top. I had done too much yesterday, and was hurting today,but I went in the sewing room and pieced some more blocks. I could only do a few before I was too much in pain to go on. I will have to not sew for a few days now. Thanks for looking in on me. Fern
