I needed to turn in early last night.  Two big weddings this weekend.  I laid there wide awake listening to the sounds of the above animal scratching and clawing along the side of the house by my bedroom for what seemed like eternity.  I hope it's not inside the siding.  Oh heavens, there's never a dull moment.  Blessings!

Mother & Son

Such a busy week getting ready for the wedding.  I wanted to do something special for my friend, Debbie who's son is the groom.  I found a vintage makeup compact on Etsy. I carefully took out what remained of the pressed powder.  I borrowed a favorite picture of my friend with her son as a toddler. I printed the picture on to printable fabric and pulled some of my favorite Lecien fabric for the frame. A little batting, some card stock and glue and it was all set.  A pretty hankie to dry a happy tear and a little mirror to check her makeup~all set.  A special gift for a very special friend!

Rowing Along 3

Today I got a chance to complete row three of Lori's Row Along.  It's a cute little zig zag row.  It was fun putting it together.  I'm really liking how the quilt is coming along.  I hope you are having a good day!

Blessings,

Country Road

Slowly I am making my way through my sewing "to do" list.  Up next is the quilt "Country Road" found in the book, "Weekend" by Blackbird Designs.  This quilt is for my Sis in Love, Ellen.  It's because I love her so much that I'm willing to cut out 500 3 1/2" squares and 400 3 7/8" squares.  Yes, you read that right.  This fabric, also by Blackbird Designs, is just dreamy.  That's a good thing since I'll be cutting a lot of it!

We have an important wedding reception at the farm this weekend.  A dear friend's son is getting married.  I get to be a guest and an employee.  I can hardly wait.  It will be the last reception at the farm before shutting down the wedding business.  I made this banner yesterday for the bridal table. Have a good day, friends!

Smiles,

There's a thunderstorm going on outside, I've got the Pioneer Woman cooking on t.v. and I'm pinning on Pinterest while having coffee.  Perfect multitasking.  Now if I could just get someone to cook me breakfast!  I thought I would start something new for Saturday's on my blog.  I'm going to be sharing something I like from Pinterest.  There's so many wonderful ideas on the site.  I'm loving this variation on a Drunkard's Path quilt block.  Such an interesting name, said to be linked historically to the Women's Christian Temperance Movement.  I have not made this block yet, but I'm intrigued.  Have a wonderful, Saturday!
