The Foxglove, sewing and cutting grass....etc.

There was no school on Wednesday in order to support teachers/

My son came by to see his family.

Just look...for Mother's Day came a Foxglove.

He had kept it in his tent...He brought it from his tent in the pouring rain,

to the train station, on the bus to our bus stop.

Just for me!!. I am more than touched.

My cup runneth over.

 Eight year old Dylan had his first grass cutting lesson

 

 Where does time go??? Eamon started cutting grass at age 9.
Now he is teaching his son.

I finally finished my "quilt in the box"  a Wednesday night challenge from a few years ago.

I always love to see how different colors change the look

Mine was done with Civil War reproductions.

A binding finish...quilted by Terri...xo

I cannot figure out why I am so exhausted.
I had my physical last week.  The blood work came back just fine.
Answers...dear friends...answers!!!

OK..guess I am not that tired...as after sleeping all day,  I made myself a new purse.
This is my old one...so loved, alas too heavy for me at this time after my surgeries/

 I made a new one tonight out of fabric, much lighter to carry.
This purse is from Mr. O'Quilt's beloved suede jacket.
I carry my man everywhere with me now.
Just showing now the details I am proud of:

 Inside pocket with Velcro and loops to hold the straps.

back loop

zippered pocket

Thick and soupy weather in Charlotte...
Nice to sew, to blog and to read a bit...
