Projects in progress....

 Snowman table topper for the winter season..

Fall hot mats and 'summer' themed mini wall hanging...pattern from Pearl Louise.  Got the entire season selections...winter and spring...to do...kinda cute...same cottage and tree in different seasons. Need to get the hanger put up somewhere. I found one that you can hang permanently, then change the little quilts as the seasons change...without taking the hanger itself off the wall.

Fall table runner....in progress. Need to finish binding....pinned to the "project" wall....!

Re-entry

Oy....four days' camping in Buena Vista, CO and NOW back home to laundry, cleaning up, putting away.  I wanna go BACK to Buena Vista and camp some more.  Got to see a lot of things we haven't had time or opportunity to see and the campground and fellow campers were so nice.     Just tired....

Warm weather. Sunny skies.  Fires in AZ and now NM are threatening air quality all over the place.  What a terrible situation for all involved.

Played with the darning function of the new machine. Pretty cool!  All those tears and holes are now fixed!

Hugs and love

Happy spring!

Here we are in May now.  It has snowed every day a little bit....what I call "spitting" snow...just enough to say there is snow but it never lays on the ground...which is fine with me!!!!  Graupel is a term used here for wet sloppy snow that isn't hail but isn't rain.  We get a lot of that the past few days and it is a good thing, really. We are low on precipitation, so it's all good!

Osama Bin Laden is dead. A portion of us breathe a sigh of relief, but as they all are pointing out, the terrorist organizations are not. Terrorism still flourishes.  Praises for the military and those who supported this effort. Prayers for the world  who may still be victims of further terror attacks.

Been sewing like crazy.  Making wall hangings and table toppers. Just fun things..but looking at a better sewing/embroidery machine. Won't be happening any time soon....but gotta have a goal!

Getting ready to be able to go out camping in the collapsible camper. Ready to see Colorado state parks...and some of northern New Mexico, around Angel Fire and Red River area....

Dad is soon moving to an apartment in town....He seems to be looking forward to it...hope he has more room and can relax and enjoy townsfolk and not have to travel so far ....he'll be 80 in July.   Time marches on.

Life is one day at a time and moves on.  God is in control.

Blessings
