Dreary, cold day..........

Snow ???..... there was snow out there when I got up..... Brrrrrrrrrr.  We better not be going backwards in the weather. 


This is NEST...... a new quilt pattern...... no borders. just blocks.... It was fun to make.. went together very nice.  AND I quilted it on my Babylock Coronet.  This was the first large quilt I did on my Coronet... and I have to say I LOVE that quilting machine.  It is easy to operate..... and very sleek and quilts like a dream. The Coronet does not have any computer capabilities and that is one reason I like it.... I do free motion quilting and I am learning to use rulers... I just am tired of computers. and having to learn more computer stuff.  I have enough computer stuff on my embroidery machine... so this is GREAT... AND I am going to get all those quilts finished !! ........ok.... eventually !     I hope you are all having a good weekend...... and please leave me a comment if you read my blog.....

Rainy Thursday

Rainy day........ normally I LOVE to nap on rainy days.... but I have a list of things to do today !
I am sewing and quilting and want to do a million other things............
I have lazy dogs laying here .......... they are not excited about going out in the rain either.....


Looks like Gus has the right idea...... sleep till the sun comes out.    My rhubarb is very happy it got some rain !...... I expect that I can pick it much earlier this year... maybe about 3 weeks.. and I can make a rhubarb dessert...... or just cook some rhubarb "sauce"...... So tell me....... what do you call a can of peaches.... when you open it and put it in a dish ?........... Peach SAUCE !!....... my husband and I have had that argument for years...... Peach sauce, Pear Sauce...... maybe we called it that because we put it in "sauce dishes"...... but... to me it will always be sauce.  What do you call it ????
Hope you have a good day !!!
