This is a trellis outside the garage door which has produced nothing the past few years...this year, one little lonely vine is managing a valiant effort...am thinking the soil here needs some major reworking. It is rather pretty with just the lone flower, don't you think? I am sorta hoping it just stays that way for awhile...
READING: Quilting books for a little research on where I want to go with this quilting phase I am going through.
LISTENING TO: Bob Seger...gotta love Bob's music, don't you?
FAV NEW FIND; Quilting board (12" by 12" roughly) that has sandpaper on the front to hold the material steady while tracing a template...way easier than trying to hold the template, trace the pattern, hold the material down...way easier. You can make one or buy one...we are not a "having-sandpaper-around" type family, so I figured it would save gas and mileage, hassle, multiple purchases, etc., and just buy the one at the store. Good move, love this thing...absolutely love it.
FAV THING TODAY; Having time between the car-to-the-pooling gigs to cut all my quilt blocks for my class tonight. Very peaceful just working at the kitchen nook table and looking out the window into the backyard with all the greenery and blooming flowers, etc. Just lovely. (Photo of this in the craft post today.)
SCRAPBOOK PAGES THIS WEEK; I worked on quilting and knitting, so nothing in the scrapbook realm until this weekend when I will have some time to do such and Matt and Alex will want to work on their 4-H scrapbooks to get those organized and on the way to completion for the fair.
GOING TO: Plans changed and we have a free weekend to hang around town and do some things around the house...going to be very hot, so probably a lot of time in the pool and yard; get organized for Matt and I to be on the road next week with swimming in Louisville.
PRAYING FOR: It's Ordination week here, please join me in praying for the men currently serving as priests, for those who are embarking upon their vocational calling this weekend, and for those discerning such in the seminaries.
