Since November 2013, of course there was Christmas.

In December, I made my sister a purse for Christmas.






In January there was skiing at Meadowlark Lodge.



In March, we had a ski day with family and friends.




In February, I helped host the Ucross Sewing Retreat, in Ucross, WY.



In March I attended the National Quilt Day in Sheridan, WY.  Our project was kite blocks - paper pieced.



I made this one.



Track filled up a lot of our time this Spring.  Thank goodness the first meet was inside.



Even in April it was very cold.  She did an awesome job her first year of track - hurdles, 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 400 meter relay, she even tried shot put a few times.  



I worked on this quilt in March.  It is a baby blanket for Landon.  I do not have a finished picture.  (The pieces are left over from a project you will see later.)




I worked on this quilt in May.  It is a baby blanket for Drew.  I do not have a finished picture.  Landon and Drew are cousins and their parents are friends of our family.



In June the family went on a vacation to Las Vegas and California.





I worked on this project from way-back-when to completion in August.  It is the blue wave quilt, mermaid quilt, the fishroom quilt - It's been called a lot of things.  It went to the Johnson County Fair and has a blue ribbon.  I will post a completed picture of it soon.




Whew.  That's it in a nutshell - the past several months.  It's August and we can now say the word "school" in our house.  I can't believe this summer (this year) has flown by and school starts in just a few weeks.  We still have more planned for the end of summer.  A trip to Denver is coming up.  Pictures of that to follow soon.

I hope to make an appearance here more often in the future.
