It's been awhile..........

I know..........It HAS been awhile since I"ve posted anything new

on this blog.

Guess I've just been busy downstairs in my studio.

I've been sorting thru fabric and pulling out candidates

to become Micro Mitts. My pile is dwindling, so as you can

see in the basket, I've put together about 50 kits to make

new ones!

I love having these to give away.

I just hope that the people who receive them like

them as much as I do! LOL!

I've been itching to piece a quilt lately.

(let's not count how many finished quilt tops I

have hanging ready to be quilted......okay?)

So when I found these orphan Bullseye blocks mixed

in with my fabric I spent a little time and pieced

them together. Now I just need to add a border

or two and quilt it up.

It'll make a perfect little picnic quilt or car quilt

or outside swing quilt.............

I love having utility quilts that I can USE!

(okay.......so I WILL need to quilt it before it is finished!)

GREAT NEWS!

Mike FINALLY bought a new tractor!

His old one has put in about 15 good years.

Years of mowing the lawn, pulling small trailors,

and being driven around by countless soccer players.

I've asked MIke to buy a new one for a couple of years now

to the response that the old one had a "few more good years in her".

(Hey! Maybe that is why he keeps me around! lol!)

At any rate............the old one finally died

and the grass just kept getting higher and higher

so he finally broke down and got a new one.

Doesn't it look sparkly and new?
