Quilts, Birthdays and Other October Events!!!

It's been awhile (!!!) since I last posted-

so here's what we have been doing...

or at least the more important things...

Russell finished the painting for next years

BMWRO John Day Rally T-shirt

and it's caused a bit of a stir because he has

no motorcycle on it......we'll see what happens..

Frankly, I think it's a refreshing change.

From scraps-come quilts.....

In my little sewing room,

I have made 6 baby quilts. Three are completed-

three more have to be finished with the binding.

The two above were made for the twins..

a boy and girl plus I made the little

creature in the middle for the "big" sister...

We spotted these two deer-plus another

grazing on a neighbors side lawn.

The house is vacant-so they have moved

right in....

Our good friends Bill and Ewana from

Weed CA came and spent a few days

with us- so we took them to McMenamins Edgefield

for a few beers and lunch....this shot is of an archway

made of old pipes-so clever!

Another Edgefield photo...
Bill bought a small book of Edgefield's history

It is a fascinating place....
We also went to Amnesia Brewery on N Mississippi
Besides having tasty brews and yummy food-
dogs are allowed so Tuffy could join us!
We fit in occasional trips to breweries
between lengthy and a bit competitive Trionimoe games

It was Zan's 30th Birthday October 24th
so I made 31 Chocolate Cupcakes
for her party.....

and here's one of the 6 quilts I made.
I never made a quilt for Zan when
she was a baby-so no time like now....
Happy Birthday Zan!

Zan and her #30 cupcake!

Last shot- Ewana made a "Thank you "

out of fallen rose petals on the bathroom counter.....

she's very clever-!!

Thanks BIll and Ewana for coming and visiting us!!!
