But until July 20th… let me share what has been going on here this week 🙂
I am happy first and foremost to share that black and batik quilt I hand quilted after my bestie Connie built the quilt top??? Well it is done and found it’s way to it’s forever home and is now being loved…. with our good friend Janet 🙂
We saw a doe the other day as we were heading out to run errands…
And a young buck the next time we were out too 🙂
Rick tuned up both my sewing machines…
But my main week has been focused on making a quilt top… I am over halfway done now!!!!
Leaving my progress on hand quilting low….
I also did a bit of stitching on the rolling pin enough to call it done and started on the chain stitch surrounding the bowl and pin.
Linking this hand stitching to Kathy’s Slow Sunday Stitching HERE <<<<
My honey has finished the cedar tongue and groove on the ceiling….
and we love it!!!!
Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead! Thanks for reading and looking 🙂

Looks like a busy week for both of you! I adore the boho looking heart quilt. The new woodwork looks beautiful. Will you now paint the walls? I can just imagine how pretty sage green or a creamy gray blue would look next to that wood! Tell your honey Happy Birthday, mine is three days behind his. We are all July babies!

Happy early birthday to Rick. The batik quilt is gorgeous and I’m sure the new owner is thrilled. I like the scrappy low volume prints in the quilt top. The new wood looks like it has always been there. Have a bless week! Jill
