Lazing on a Sunday

 It is dark and dreary here in West Central Indiana...I thought while I am not tired I will try to do a little post...

Last weekend we were at our daughter's house...had to be there Friday to be there while a guy was working on her kitchen...I will try to think and download get some pics from that in my next post.

One evening she and I made a run to JoAnn Fabrics...they were having a sale on Christmas fabrics.


The above is something Daughter is making with some of hers.  It is going to be either a small throw or something to use as a table topper or to just hang on the wall.


She is also in the mood to start another quilt using 2 1/2 inch squares of fabric...using all neutrals.  these above are not sewn together.  If they were, it would would only measure 10 1/2 inches x 20 1/2.  It will take a lot to squares make even a twin sized quilt.  

So towards that end, I brought home a bunch of her neutrals and cut a bunch of strips 2 1/2 inch yesterday.  She will do the next step an cut them into squares.

She only wanted one strip from each fabric, or what is equal to a strip. Some were just small pieces that I totally cut up.  I tried to count the different fabrics and to the best of my ability I got 49, but I am thinking I probably missed at least one or two.

On the fun side, how about a little synchronized chewing?


It is funny, Copper does the same thing of acting like she just has to go out and gets Delta to thinking she has to go out too....then when Delta goes out, she runs and gets her bone or whatever chew toy she had that Copper wants.


That is about it from my little corner of the world.  I hope you are having a great day.

a bit of this and that...


 First a couple new pieces of art from Lorelei.  How do you like the above...the assigned subject was pirates.  She did this ship in a 'jug with a cork!'  I would never have thought to do that.  

Then night before last she told me she had finally finished her Halloween assignment:

It was 58°F here yesterday, and may have gotten a bit warmer...that was the last time I looked at the temp.  And today I am sure it was at least 60, and probably higher than that.  We went for a drive, taking our rods and reels...and we did NOT wear jackets.  I had on long sleeves, but did not need them the last place we stopped.  Roger had on a sleeveless t-shirt and was fine the entire time.

Have I shared the following?   

 She is just so cute...


That is it for this post...I hope your week is going good.

More Copper....


 You would almost think that Delta is his real mom...

She puts up with a lot from him.

And this one made me laugh out loud when my daughter showed it to me...
