My new grand dog, Rosie!!!!
Arrived yesterday to her home in Portland
4 months old, half Australian/German shepherd....
Just visited with her on Face time tonight
She is a rescue from northern California.
Of my favorite books ever.
1.5 inch strips all organized so nicely.
by my mountain friends in Tennessee..
Tonight was a parts department night.
Into a parts department box for future funky quilt use.
Should have been working on holiday things.
Should have been working on potholders.
But, this was way more fun.
About two years ago, I cut off the collar of an old sweat shirt.
I was thinking of black and white striped for the edging..but never
had the energy to do it...Wouldn't you know after finally the finish..I hate it!!!!
Good thing it is an old ratty shirt.

Warm and Natural batting is on bolt at Walmart online/
A big surprise to me.
So afraid that the extra import taxes in the new year will put batting way out of my budget
In my mind, this was the best price. It is already $50 more than when I bought it last time.
There is no tax and free shipping.
Our vicarious trip to London...awesome thanks to Amy from Diary of a Quilter
Look at this post of Liberty of London ..
I was there 40 years ago...did not see any
quilts hanging from the banisters,
.But, there was no Victoria Findlay Wolfe back then...
Lucky me received some of those yummies from our Cousin Ann, a few years back.
From Wanda comes Jerry's prizewinning quilt
and...Merrill's quilt
Both stunning.
Bocelli and Sheeran..such a remarkable video....I play it a lot.
Wish my mother was here..Andre Bocelli was her favorite.
It must be something for 27 year old Sheeran to be playing with the famous 60 year old Bocelli.
And...to have Bocelli singing Sheeran's song...and in Italian..
The smile on Ed's face tells it all.
Talk about relaxation...I watch this video often.
It has really been a lovely day...meeting with friends
My son helping to bring in the plants for tonight's freeze.
The low in the morning will be 27 degrees.
Relaxation for me is sitting outside under my tree reading.
Looks like Old Man Winter will not be allowing that tomorrow.
Has anyone beside Kara read Educated. I am far down on the library list. Supposed
to read it for a book club. Now I wonder if it is too traumatic for me.
Let me know...I do not need more drama in my life.
What a beautiful,adorable grandpup! Such a really cute face and they have such amazing intelligence and almost human emotions.
ReplyDeleteKudos to the Portland Humane Society for taking so many rescues in and major kudos to all of the loving families for giving them a "furever" home and loving them back into safety and security and a new life filled with love 💞

Gwen and Freddy's book is a favourite of mine too, so colourful! Must thank you for the heads up on the Bocelli and Sheeran video, simply wonderful. I have been listening to Andrea Bocelli a lot lately, one of my favourites is Nelle Tui Mane (think I have the spelling OK) from Gladiator, it is stunning!! At last I was able to send you an email, hope you received OK, pleased to be reading the news on your son.
