Painted Quilt

 I decided to make use of some fabric paints I had been given. I took a piece of fabric to the longarm and quilted it to death. Then I sat down and colored in all the parts. 


I was surprised by the amount of time this took. It's a small piece and still took hours and hours of coloring.


Katie helped me too when she was home for a while.

Extra Firewood

 We had such an excess of firewood that we decided to sell a cord or two. Luckily, we have a log splitter that attaches to the tractor. The kids wanted to earn some summer money and they were quite successful.

New Golf!


I have entered a new realm. It's the TDI world! Now Paul and I have almost-matching diesels. Of course, he has 340,000 miles and I only have 150,000, but I'm not comparing. It's a sporty little thing that gets 52 mpg which is good for my wanderings.
