Kids can make a difference

This quilt was made for a friend of mine :) Her daughters class did all the artwork & I did the sewing & quilting. It will be a part of her schools spring auction. I hope it raises lots of $$ for her school.

This years Orion Quilt

Here's a picute of the quilt I just finished for the Orion spring auction. The pattern is called shoofly done in Americana fabrics. I think it turned out great!

Oh, some days are just so fun!

This morning my newspaper the "Contra Costa Times" was yet again under my car, as it is 360 days a year. Only today, I couldn't reach it because it was dead center under the engine. That delivery person has great aim, I must say. So, annoyed by this perfect delivery, I got the keys to my car to move it out of the way. And in my annoyed state at 5:45AM, I moved the car in the wrong direction...... as you can see above. Fortunately, I did manage to hit the garage door dead center so as to avoid any damage to the house and just smashed the crap out of the garage door itself. Yes there is paint on my car bumper but no real other damage. Here are some lovely photos of my misshap for eveyone to enjoy :)

I sincerely hope you have all had as much fun laughing at me while reading this as I have had posting it. :)

Baseball season has begun!

It's February & that means baseball season gets under way. Sarah has a new team & practices begin mid month. Steve has already been to one umpire clinic and next weekend will be at another both Sat & Sun. . He is also umpiring his first game on the 14th, Valentine's day. I see a new purse in my future......... :) WooHoo!
I see lots of quilting time in my future too.... all that weekend time to fill. That is between shuttling Sarah to practices and games, lol! Basketball is quite finished yet either. Time flies by when your having fun!
