Cleaning Up........

OK, I have really neglected my house lately.......the first part of the week was busy so it took me until Wednesday night to decide I better get moving..... I jumped in and started digging out..... first cleaning carpets and moving furniture..... then I saw how bad the windows looked... I hate to wash windows.... have you ever noticed that one thing leads to another.....blinds, closets, drawers.....oh well, onward......have a great weekend, maybe I will be done before next week....
When the kids were here my two grandsons were watching cartoons one afternoon.....I went to check on them and this is what I found....
They had climbed into the fold up hampers I left when doing their laundry...as you can see they are very intent on the TV...... we got a good laugh and they watched the rest of the show like this.....kids, don't you just love them....always something to put a smile on my face.....

Summer Slipping Away..........

Fall is definitely in the air.....the temperatures during the day range from 60 degrees to 90.....at night it has dipped into the 40's .....there is still hay to be cut and the potatoes are almost ready for harvest.... school started this week .....what little summer we had is quickly slipping away.....
The last two weeks have been busy... not much sewing.....did finish quilting this one....now for the binding .... not sure when ....


I did the back with two different blue fabrics......for a scrappy quilt it turned out pretty well.....now I am down to two quilts and one wall hanging to finish before 2009 is gone.....in between I will be working on the Stitcher's Angel Swap.... I have been in contact with my swap partner..... sorry.....I can not say who or where she is.... OK, just one hint.....she is from a country very close to Russia.... did that help at all?... I have been to her blog and she is a very talented lady.....so far I have not heard from my Angel....hint, hint....

Lots to do... Both daughter's and grand babes will be here tomorrow...Angels kept flying and creating....
