Sneak Peek

We got all the quilts hung for our exhibit at Maine Quilts yesterday.  We had plenty of help so got them done pretty quickly.

Here is a sneak peek

It was a very hot weekend. Sunday evening’s sunset 

Dessert

Dan mentioned that he and Erin had picked blueberries and he wasn't sure what he wanted to make with them. Vanessa suggested this recipe ~ Easy Batter Fruit Cobbler.  So, he made it the other day.

It rained on Monday, like we never get lately. It was a nice drenching rain.  It would be be nice to have known that it was coming though, but hey, it seems the weather man didn’t either. It was late in the day so I got my walk in.  

Tuesday was nice, but it was so bloody windy. Hard to enjoy the day with the wind howling like it was. 

Vanessa and her kids came on Tuesday as did Erin. They all went for a swim, Carol included.

This and That

I have been getting the Rona Quilts washed for the Maine Quilt Show next week.  I think I only have three left to wash.

Most of them have gotten the bathtub wash with Dawn dish detergent.  I have had several "bleeders", not surprising with as many different fabrics as there are in the quilts.  I use a washing method by Vicki Welsh, you can find that info here.

Tuesday evening sitting out by the fire. Beautiful sunset (as are a great many here on the pond) it almost looks like I am back in the mountains as I observe the clouds and their reflection in the pond. 

Was surprised to get a fire this evening as the forecast for earlier was for major storms. We obtained some needed rain but little else. That is ok though, I don’t like damaging storms.

On Thursday, Erin, Evan and Parker came down.  It was a beautiful day for paddle boarding, kayaking and swimming.
