HALLOWEEN TABLE RUNNER

Yesterday was a rainy day so I decided I was going to make a Halloween table runner. I finished binding it last night. I'll be early for Halloween this year. Usually I have good intentions, but don't get around to it.

I quilted spider webs in each of the cornerstones. I'm happy with the way this turned out. Happy Holiday Monday to everyone in Canada today!

FINISHED!!!

After 7 years I have finally finished my Vintage Nine Patch quilt. It is wool applique' on cotton. Lots of work stitching on this one. I had my friend hand quilt it for me and she did a gorgeous job. I love how this quilt turned out. It was definitely worth the wait.

SUNDAY DINNER

Good evening peeps. We just finished this delicious dinner tonight. Barbequed ribs and yellow beans fresh picked from the garden.
Hope everyone had a great Sunday!

MORE BLOOMS IN THE GARDENS

My Rose of Sharon has bloomed this week. I just love these big blooms. The Calendula is just about to burst open and my Brown Eyed Susans are out in full force. Love getting out early and watering every morning and seeing how all the blooms are coming.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Blessings,

COOKIES

I was baking cookies before the crack of Dawn this morning. Baked a few for home and a tin for my Co-workers. A batch of peanut butter cookies and a batch of chocolate chip/oatmeal/walnut cookies.

My husband gave me the thumbs up. Hope you are all having a great day. We got a little rain overnight which my gardens really appreciated.

Stay cool everyone during these days.

MORE BLOOMS IN THE GARDEN

Good morning my friends. I took a few pictures this morning of the recent happenings in my gardens. My perennial sunflowers are blooming and the squash is starting to form. Looks like it is going to be a good crop, more blooms are coming. The weather is a little cooler today, so much better for sleeping and working in the gardens.

Have a great day everyone.

GARDEN PICTURES

Some gorgeous pictures of my Goosenecks this morning.

MY GARDEN

My husband took this aerial photo this morning of my vegetable garden. It sure is growing. The heat sure is helping it out. We had lettuce from the garden for lunch and beets will be for dinner with pork chops. Hopefully everyone is staying cool in this heat wave.

CORIANDER AND HOLLYHOCKS

Another hot steamy day here in Ontario. My hollyhocks are blooming and I took this picture this morning with Coriander in the background. My Goosenecks are also starting to bloom. 
Have a great week everyone.

SUNDAY MORNING GARDEN STILLS

Good morning everyone. I hope my friends in the USA had a great 4th of July holiday. It's pretty hot here in southern Ontario, but I have been outside before 6 am every morning tending to my gardens for 3 to 4 hours each day. I love it and it is so rewarding watching the plants start to bloom.

I took a few pictures this morning of the gardens to share with you.

Blessings

HAPPY CANADA DAY

Happy Canada day!!

ANNIVERSARY

Today my husband and I celebrated our 29th Anniversary. He usually takes me out for a nice dinner, but not this year given the coronavirus situation. I made a nice dinner for the two of us. Australian wine, steak with fried mushrooms and onions, caesar salad and lemon cake for desert. We really enjoyed it.

LILLYS

Both my orange and yellow lillys are blooming now. They are so gorgeous. Cut one of each and a stem of wild yarrow and put them into an old mason jar for my kitchen table. It is a hot one today!

Daylily

Gorgeous orange daylily garden. They are opened up today.

VEGETABLE GARDEN

We had a nice rain today and my vegetable garden is flourishing. Took a picture of my pumpkins and squash. Below is the vegetables. I am out hoeing at 6 am each morning.

QUILT LABEL

Good morning! I just finished putting the binding on my Halloween Quilt and stitching on the label I designed for it. I had good intentions to get the quilt finished for last Halloween, but that didn't happened. I will be early for this Halloween.

I love to get projects finished up.

On to the next.

PEONIES IN MY KITCHEN

Good morning! Every year I have to pick some of my peonies and put them in an old mason jar in my kitchen. I just LOVE their scent. Makes me happy to have a jar of fresh flowers in my kitchen.

Have a great Saturday everyone.

SEWING MORE MASKS

Good morning friends. I am busy back at work making more masks to donate to the cause. I have been working back at my cabin. It is so peaceful back there. I'm still staying really close to home during the Pandemic as I am at High Risk. I've been doing some graphic design too. I designed this add for an Antique show in Michigan coming up in September. Hopefully they will have a good turnout given the circumstances this year.

Wishing everyone a great day. It's going to be a hot one here.

Blessings

HALLOWEEN QUILT

Just finished up this Halloween Quilt. I didn't have time to make it for last Halloween but I am ahead of the game for this year. The binding has been sewn on and I just have to hand stitch it down. 

I love how this turned out.

Have a wonderful day. It is going to be a HOT one!
