Well Vacation is Over-
I hope everyone had a wonderful Vacation. I spent one weekend at Traverse City in Michigan. I had went to there before, but this time we went and seen some of the wine country. It was so beautiful.
As we stopped at the wineries you could look out over the bay, you can see all the fruit and grapes growing on the hillsides. They grow more than grapes. We saw rows and rows of cherry trees, pear, and other assorted fruit. They also grow different herbs and other flowers they put into some of their wines.
The second week I spent it with my mom. She has a broken wrist for playing Corn Hole. Yes you have to laugh, it's funny now! She was learning how to play, lost her footing and landed on her butt and hand. Since then she has had surgery and three different casts. She is feeling pretty good now. She keeps trying to do things she shouldn't but if you know her like I do you can't keep her away from her sewing.
We have been working on a Mystery Quilt by Bonnie Hunter it is called Double Delight. I am fallowing her instructions and made it the colors she lists. But my mother wanted her own colors of Purple, Green, Yellow, Polka-dot, and butterflies! Nice and bright. We still don't know what it will look like, we are only on step 4. You can find it in her free patterns on Quiltville's Quips & Snips!! I'll post pics when were done.
We also went through her stash. She has a tendency to start a project and not finish it. We found multiple quilts and a few jackets she hasn't finished. She gave me a few to finish. Wish me luck most of them don't have the patterns anymore. LOL She has a tendency to make very vibrant quilts.
It's going to take me a while, but watch for them. I will post them as I finish them.
That's all for now. Back to the Ford I go.
