Labor Day weekend...




A few weekend quilting projects - art apron "in progress" / Laurel Birch fabric for my sweet daughter-in-law Stefanie from Charlotte who teaches 5th grade - she was here for her 10th year class reunion so I got to "size" it in person - will finish it up and take w/me when I visit in October (hopefully)...


The other photo is "blue serendipity" aka Yellow Brick Road pattern - in honor of my mother-in-law Dorothy Warner Watson who recently celebrated her 90th birthday a few weeks ago! Just need to finish the borders/binding and quilt!


Beautiful weekend, the best part visiting w/my son Nick & wife Stef for a few hours at a picnic he and Stef hosted for family at her parents house... time to now do a bit of "picking up" - why do I get every tool I own out when I do art? Also painted a stool raspberry & white for the front porch (am either fashionably late for this summer or very early for next lol) - will decal and letter it over the winter when the spirit moves me...

Gratitudes for autumn - my favorite season, right around the corner!!!
