Melon time again.

Looks good and taste good too.
My husband's garden is a marvel.
He grows the best produce.
I have too busy to even take photos
of what I am doing.
Saturday I went to the Chesterton Art Center's
annual art show. It was awesome. Than
Sunday I went to Darien , Illinois to the
Midwest Collage Society to do a demo
 on Bleach dyeing fabric and clothing.
Today I blocked another art quilt and
plan to do another Tuesday and Wednesday..
While I am ready to call it a night.
See you later.

Looking forward to summer.

Remember the sweet juicy melon I showed you last summer.
Well we had melon for supper tonight and it was
like sweet wood.
How long until August?
6  1/2 months until the sweetness returns.
Sad.
Had a busy day Beverly and I cleaned the kitchen
cabinets inside and out and the frig.
Took 2 of us 3 hours.
That kitchen is too big.
Great results with FotoFiber today.
I bet Virginia Spiegel is tired.
She should sleep good tonight.
Over $7000 made for the American Cancer Society.
Great job.

Good Morning Saturday


                       Love old buildings. Rusty things, old cars
                       and anything old that would include me.
                       Age is a good thing. Another beautiful day
                       at Cedar Ridge. Spending the morning
                       cleaning out all the flower beds of the
                       old dead  flower heads. The birds quit eating
                       them and have moved back to the feeders
                       so time to clean up with the help of my
                       grand daughter Jenna.  We will share the
                       last watermelon for a snack break.

Start of The Woods Road art quilt.

Yesterday was busy.
I laid out the background and
started quilting the sky.
My new art quilt will be a road
disappearing into the woods.
Lots of trees and leaves. 
                                   I made another 6 quarts of tomato juice.
                                   This is the last of the melons from the garden.
                                   We will savor this one.
                                   Next week on to the watermelons.
 
I am glad to be back in the studio again.
The pantry will be full for the winter.
I will be happy as a clam in the studio.
Watching the snow blow past the windows.
I am probably the only person who likes winter.
Enjoy your day.

Summer Bounty

Fresh from the garden.
A great lunch of BLT's and melon.
Life is so good.

                 Another side benefit home made suet for
                 winter feeding the birds. Bacon grease and seed.
                  Pop in the freezer until needed.
