Snowflakes and Reindeer one made for Brandi and Richard to donate to the church auction in December.
Snowflakes in flannel for the back.
Two borders to frame

Three borders on the second quilt. May as well make two while I am at it.

6BLOCKS

All six blocks are sewn and ready for placement. Brandi can arrange the blocks to suit her, when she is visiting. Borders will be added and then off to the longarm shop. I am thinking blowing snow longarm pattern for this.
I plan to finish up in time for vacation delivery in Oct.

theBLUES

Brandi and Richard need a quilt to donate to the church auction. Snowflakes are the theme of the sale this year. This is block 1 cut out of Fabric Group A.
There will be five more fabric patterns added to the mix for Fabric Group B.
Snowflakes and Reindeer....

Canning day at the farm
. My German Johnson tomatoes are ripe and ready for canning.
Brandi thinks she can't make tomato soup if she doesn't have home grown tomatoes.
One hour to blanch and peel with the help of my trusty side kick Mark. Three hours to pack and process.
There you have it, 15 lovely quarts of tomatoes ready for the trip to Buffalo. We still have plenty on the vines if you want to stop by.....

My summer flowers are looking good.
The German Johnson tomatoes are just starting to turn their lovely pink color.
The grape vine is loaded with grapes for the critters, we never get any.
The storm that swept through with 3 inches of rain and high wind, broke three limbs in the redwood tree. Mark had to trim out the broken limbs. It looks pretty stupid now. At least I can see out to the old dog pen now. You never know when a coon will sneak in the yard through the back fence to torture Katie Kate!

You just never know when you are going to need a kids quilt.
