A Blog with Lots of Pictures

i've been busy with work and other stuff lately, so haven't blogged in days. here are the highlights:

finished quilt blocks for Bee Liberated and Pretty on Pink Bee. the recipient for each bee picked the same block - the fractured nine-patch!

here is one for Pretty in Pink Bee (miss kitty was helping):




here is one of dena's blocks for Bee Liberated:



i also finished my first quilt for kids, and i'm almost done with another top i started, so i can send in a quilt from my own fabric, too.

last night i made another spiderweb block, and this morning i made another, but with grey kites this time.

this morning, M made bacon and we had bacon sandwiches with lettuce from our garden! the only way my sandwich could have been better was if it had tomato from our garden, but we have no tomatos ready yet.

M went with me to randall's this afternoon, because i had tons of e-coupons that were expiring soon and coupons that matched well with sales this week. here's the breakdown:
