You might be happy to hear this is the last pictures from the Pieces and Parts boxes. Or maybe you wish there was more. Isn't it great that we aren't all alike, that we have a variety of interests?
Rachel Kinsey Clark came to our guild about 14 years ago and presented a jacket class where you take a lot of left over blocks with the same flavor and then make filler pieces to work them all together on the jacket. Here are some of the pieces I was working with. I never made the jacket but have kept all of the pieces together.
These pieces were left over from a baby quilt I made for my grandson 18 years ago.
Yesterday I was walking through the living room and saw a flash of red outside the window. I saw a cardinal trying to land on the tomato cage. I ran for my camera and he waited for me to take his picture. This was taken through the micro-mini blinds and a dirty window.
Then he flew over to a bush a couple feet away and faced me. He looks like he just got up and has his hair/feathers all messed up.
We had some pretty fierce storms go through last night with a tornado warning in the northern part of our county. I live in a town that is at the corner of 3 counties so I always have to be listening for all 3. We were in a severe thunderstorm warning and there are several trees down in town, at least one downtown store had windows blown out. My son didn't have electricity south of town so he came in for gas for his generator and told me what he saw as he drove through. I am thankful that we didn't get any hail.
This morning this little bunny hopped through the backyard to eat some of the wet vegetation. I'm sure he was happy for a drink.
One more day of humidity and then we are going to be in a wonderful weather pattern for the rest of the week.
