What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. We have one more day of time traveling to do, and then we'll be caught up. It seems a good way to start a Monday, doesn't it? So, let's start with what happened here at home yesterday, and then I'll tell you about the final day of our camping trip.

It was time to fill the birdfeeders, and it was time to water the flowers. Of course, my mornings lately have all start with me checking in on the green beans. They're doing a pretty good job of climbing their poles ...

Good morning, my friends. There's a lot of ground to cover this morning, so let's just get to it, shall we? First, I'll tell you about what happened here at home, and then I'll tell you about our Thursday sight-seeing excursion with Erik and Mae. Sound good? I hope so because that's how this is gonna go. I have a lot of pictures. Feel free to top off your coffee before we start.

The garden needed hoeing after being neglected for nearly a week, and the flowers wowed me. Since I hadn't seen them ...

Good morning, my friends! I’m back a day early. If you were hoping to have another day of peace and quiet without my blabbing on and on and on about nothing at all, then I’m sorry. But you know how it is…I get word overload, and then things just don’t go well at all. And don’t even get me started on all the pictures I have to show you. After giving it some thought, I decided to tell you about the trip in three installments. There’ll be this post. Then, I’ll write a ...

Good morning, my friends. We're heading out on our camping trip today. It's a short trip. You can expect to hear from me again by Sunday, if not sooner. I won't be blogging while I'm away, but I should have plenty to tell you when I get back.

There was still a lot to do in preparation, but I took some time to stitch up Tiny Treasure #67. This one has stem stitch, running stitch, lazy daisies, and French knots.

Good morning, my friends. Mike and I were up and at 'em this morning. It was warm yesterday. We ran our A/C for the first time this year. We turned it off last night, and it was cool enough, but neither of us slept very well. I don't know about you, but I like cocooning under the weight of the covers. If I can't have the covers over me, I don't sleep as well. In any case, we enjoyed this morning's pretty sunrise.

Good afternoon, my friends. I'm slow on the switch this morning, but I have a good excuse. A whole lot of water has passed under the bridge in the last 24 hours. Mike had his second cataract surgery yesterday afternoon. We got lunch afterward. Then this morning we were up at the butt crack of dawn to see the doctor for his post-op appointment. We got breakfast afterward. I started a load of clothes before we left home this morning, and the last load is washing as I'm writing. There are a couple of easy housekeeping chores on ...

Good morning, my friends. Don't let that title scare you. We're back to what passes for normal around here if, by normal, you're talking about controlled chaos. But that's beside the point. I just want to say straight out that there's nothing to worry about. The worst is all in the past. I have a lot to tell you this morning, and a lot of pictures to show you. If you're planning to read to the end, now would be a good time to refill your coffee cup. And if you're not planning ...

I'm exhausted this morning! I seemed exhausted all day until it was time to sleep! I just woke up - the blog is going to be late!!!

Travel days are long, and even though yesterday was a short travel day, we lost three hours due to the time change. It was easy - we got up, caught the hotel shuttle back to the airport. We hung out at the lounge for a bit, and then I suggested we go down to the gate to try something new.

Good morning, my friends. It was a busy day yesterday. There's still a little bit more to do before we can take off on our camping trip, but most of it is finished. The kitties are staying home this trip. They're too short to look through the telescopes that will be on site, and so they decided not to come. They've been given strict orders: No wild purrties and no loud mewsic.

My day started with hoeing the garden. It was the thing I least wanted to do, and so I did that first. Everything is looking ...

Good morning, my friends. It's a red letter day, for sure. "The Story of My Day" is finished. It ends up at 62 x 62 inches. I started this quilt on January 13, 2023, so nearly 3-1/2 years in the making.

While I was taking those pictures, Mike came inside and told me the family of violet-green swallows living in one of our nest boxes had fledged. Of course, I had to go see that for myself.

We think this might be one of the parent birds coaxing one of the ...
