Snowman quilt is finished!



 I finished the blocks a long time ago but didn’t sew them together because I didn’t know how I would quilt it. I was stymied. 2023 rolled around and it was 10 years old and needed to be completed. I was surprised when I pulled it out to see that I had made an extra block. I thought I would use all the extra fabric and piece the backing; but that was so cute I turned it into its own quilt and gave it to Ann. So last week I took it to Cherry’s house, threw it on her long arm machine and quilted it and I love it! I brought it home and bound it and now it is complete.

The corner behind the door. One Sunday, while listening to the talks in Sacrament Meeting, I heard this great quote from Plato regarding self-control.  The talk was about fasting.  It was a really good talk.  So, I asked, Sister Gina McQueen for a copy of the quote and cut it out in vinyl and hung it on the ceili...

Pumpkin pie

We got one pumpkin out of our garden this summer.  It was smallish.  I cut the corn stalks and tied them together and put them on the front porch with the little pumpkin next to them foe decoration for October.  November 1st I threw out the cornstalks and moved the pumpkin to the other side of the door, and I thought, "I wonder what it takes to make pumpkin pie from a real pumpkin."  So, thanks to google, I found a  Website , and, voila!  Mike and I made two of the most delicious pumpkin pies in the history of our pumpkin pies!  No time to take a photo, one is history, the other is in the freezer!
