Front and Back

This project is coming together nicely. Both pieces will be quilted together Wednesday. I have made an appointment to use the long arm quilting machine I recently had a lesson on, should be interesting. Hope the weekend treats each of you very well.
Enjoy the journey.

2000th Member Cover Contest Entry

Letter Writers Alliance (LWA) - 2000th Member Cover Contest
As most of you know, I love mail and although I don't write as many letters as I would like, I do try to send cards and the odd letter quite often.  Which is why I found the LWA interesting and joined. Above is my entry to a recent contest they held, a collage of stamps and a cut out drawing of mine with a few extras added for good measure.  It was fun putting this together.  Wishing each of you good mail days ahead.  
Enjoy the journey.

In The Works

Wildflowers

Wildflowers are blooming in our back yard after the much needed rain we have experienced this past week. As evident from the image above. Finished a little project this week, an iPad stand (see above), using the following tutorial. You might enjoy the following granola recipe, I sure did. I may like it best without yogurt, just dry, eaten out of hand as a snack. I do hope the weekend is most enjoyable. Enjoy the journey.

Olive Oil

Don't take olive oil for granted. Read the following article. We adopt a tree from Nudo (a Christmas gift to each other), it is an amazing olive oil and a wonderful company. There are a couple of local options available to us as well, which I am looking forward to trying. Enjoy the journey.

Recent Discoveries

My brother sent me some photos he recently scanned and I found a couple of me he took when I was a wee mite. I thought I would share them with you.  Another image he included was taken by my cousin this past November of me and my Auntie Evelyn who recently passed away. I have fond memories of that day; I was in Canada at the time. I surprised them both by travelling up to see them at a craft show in Bruce Mines, where Auntie Evelyn was selling her gorgeous hand knit creations. It was a good day.  I am going to miss that lady.
Enjoy the journey.
