lazy

I have been too busy (or lazy) to post much lately. But I came across some photos that I took at the Fair in July and decided to post some of my favorites from the quilt competition.


I love the outlining on the one above

have always wanted to try to do this window effect

I love this one, the rocks, the flowers, the overall feel

classic beauty

I like the fabrics used probably more than the design

I love this effect. lots & lots of little pieces for the graduated shading, but well worth the effort.

August

There has been a lot going on but my brain has been too tired to blog. Work is finally getting to the point that I'm not on overload learning new things, now it is just a matter of organizing and prioritizing.

We had a wonderful trip a couple weeks ago. Mike and the boys went fishing in Dunsmuir; Shannon and I went on to Oregon for some thrift shopping and visiting. It was a lot of driving for a three day weekend but well worth it. The guys caught just a few fish but we are all enjoying the smoked trout! Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures on this trip.

It has been a year full of new family members. We have had two great nieces and three great nephews born this year! Two of them were born in the past week. And there are at least two more on the way. So much fun to see the family grow.
