Well, even with all the yard work, I somehow managed to get twelve blocks finished for my ugly fabric quilt challenge.  Hopefully very soon I'll find some time to escape into my studio and create the quilt top.  I have never done this before, a challenge that is, so I am making sure that I use even the smallest pieces of fabric.
I'm not sure what the finished product will look like but I think it will be okay.
I am also still quilting, by hand, everyday on my queen sized scrappy log cabin quilt I made over the winter.  Its almost half quilted!  I want to have it done in time for the Crawford County Fair in August!  I keep stitching away.  Quilting is such a stress reliever for me.  Just love it.
I really want to get it all finished so I can start a new art quilt project that I have in mind.  I swear I'll die with a thousand creative ideas in my head.  There are so many things I want to quilt or create.  Its unreal!
We finally got our pond up and running today.  Somehow I managed to smack my toe.  If I had any good luck, I sure can't find it.  This week I backed my car into a dumpster and caused about $1100.00 worth of damage.
I really have gotten to the point where I don't let these unlucky things stress me out.  I just take it all with a grain of sand, pick myself up, dust myself off and go merrily about finding my next disaster!  Don't sweat the small stuff.  Its all small stuff!
