Page in the Garden

It has been a busy Spring with a lot of activities.  Getting to Graduation 2013 final arrived on Friday.  I have been gardening just a little since March.  Jimmy built a couple more frames and we have already eaten tomatoes and squash.  Currently we have over seven vegetables and 10 herbs growing.  The cucumbers are coming in and I have a softball size spaghetti squash hanging on the frame.

Charity Quilts

I have been busy on the weekends trying to meet my Breakfast Bunch Bee's challenge to  charity quilts for the hospital. The challenge was to use donated fabric to make two quilts by the meeting in March. I added a few pieces from my stash to make five quilts. How exciting. The first quilt is a take off of "Carpenter's Star" and uses the black skull fabric. I added purple and gray fabrics from my stash to make it pop!


The second and third quilts use mostly donation fabrics but I added the black from stash to compliment the pretty print.  I was able to make two quilts from the donation fabrics.

And lastly, I had to go with the red, white and blue to make patriotics.  I even used the scraps to make backings.
