Things Here


Hi friends!

Tomorrow they will start putting down the plank looking flooring. They would have today but didn't have the right nails for the nail gun!

I left two of my machines with the repair man yesterday in Rome, when we came back from buying groceries this morning.   Looks lots better then it did yesterday!

He had left us a massage saying they were ready so we had to drive down there to get them.. He is the best person to work on them but told me today he was 89!
 

Got the order for my labels for my wheelchair quilts yesterday. 

I just got a phone call , when I looked to see who it was it said "probably fraud"!

Talk about a smart phone!!!!

Working on the House


 Hi friends!

This is number three! Number two is not quit wide enough so I plan on adding some strips to each side.

The two rooms that we are  having  to re-floor.

How we got so much stuffed into those two rooms I will never know!!!! We have just lived here for 22 Years!!!

Of course the job is much worse than we though it would be!         Hubby's parents built to close to the ground and they had never heard of "moisture barrier".

Hubby and I moved most of that heavy furniture to other parts of the house over the week end. When you take it apart it moves a lot better but our bed is now in our dining room.  And he will be 80 next month and  catch up with me.

Well we needed the exercise.!!!

Soon we will be to old to work on this house, we are already out of money!

Stay safe

RANDON fIXING

Hi friends!

Wanted a pattern for one with a pocket so ordered this from "Lovie Lap Quilt" by Carolyn DiPerri..  Just what I needed.. Pockets  that open from two sides. Her blog is "Homesewn by Carolyn"
We are doing some work on the house, Hubby and son-in-law that is. We has a crack in our cement on our big porch . The out-side end was where the  two sides of the roof poured off so it forced lots of water under the house and it has messed up our flooring that we had put down 20 years ago . Three rooms are messed up!

While moving things we found this:

A 67 year old phone book.

Needless to say no sewing has been going on!!! But today I am going to sew!!! Got hubby to help me move some things so I could get to my sewing machine.

I am having withdrawal!!!

Stay safe Buddies

HI FRIENDS!

Sis and Belle came to see us Sat.

It's very hard to get a good picture of her!  She is not a year old yet!  Still a Pup!!
 
This is the third wheelchair quilt!  Maybe for a man.

And I think this will be the forth!



I was making one of my kids a quilt and Sis found this at a yard sale in Atlanta and got me enough to make a king sized, saved me from making that block but I will some day!

I think I have enough for two for the Nursing Home and another of the animals.

My sweet Aunt came over Friday with her daughter. Then my sweet daughter brought us a new T.V. that she paid for.  For a gift to her step dad for Father's day

Two of my grandsons picking up a 20 foot pen for my daughter's new puppy. We had three pens from when we had our big dogs.

My daughter bought one puppy and it got run over so she bought another and we gave her one of our old pens so that wouldn't happen again.  She wants to raise them.

Red tick hounds!

Love all six of my Kids!

Catching Up


 Hi friends!

My Tiger lilies are really blooming this year!

Right after Memorial Day Hubby got sick and I carried him to visit the Dr, Then I got it , not as bad, But I Just now feeling better.

 We were both sick and the T.V. messed up, the computer went out so! Yesterday we gave up on the T.V. and ordered us a new one. And got my computer out of the shop.

I felt like I was living in the dark ages!

It's amazing how we depend on these things!

It's rained all week and hubby is out there getting his lawn mower ready to cut the grass.



Thinking these two fabric's will make a great men's wheel chair quilt! I have two of the animal panels so going to make those up!  I am a tad behind!!!!

Stay Safe

Third Wheel chair Quilt

Hi friends!

This is two thirds of the third one.

I think my sewing tomorrow will be on the great grands sons two quilts.
 

Got some blooms on my magnolia tree.

Tommy had to cut the top out of it one year when we had a bad freeze before Easter.  All the trees top leaves turned black and fell off.on all of our trees.

My aunt Jo and some of her grands. We went by there yesterday and took her some books, she had rounded me up some to bring home with me.
We are a family of readers! My mom was and Jo is her baby sister. She used to go to Rome years ago with me and my mom to get books.Before Mom died!

Have a great weekend

Second WheelChair Quilt

Hi friends!

I got this sandwiched and then did some wavy line quilting.


 

But then I did one and it folded up with me!

So today I hope to take that out and finish it up and get some binding on it.  May just sew the binding on both sides.

Have had a bad morning, I called the t.v. service and talked to a very hateful girl that I could just barely understand.

We pay enough for them to hire a American! 

Stay safe

Making Wheelchair Quilts


Hi friends! 

Didn't show the eclipse very well . But I tried!

Worked on this Saturday afternoon!  All it needed was binding and I had picked that out..

Didn't take long to sew it together and press it. Then sew it down on both sides.

Some little old lady that loves cats would love this so I cut it out.

I picked out a backing but haven't got to the sewing machine yet.

Stay safe friends
