I FINALLY finished it








I finally finished my Amish Roman Stripe quilt this week. I made this using the Eleanor Burns quilt in a day directions. Needless to say, I didn't get it done in a day, much less a week. But that has nothing to do with Ms. Burns directions, I just don't have enough focus to stand and cut strips all day. Me and a rotary cutter are not the best of friends.




Anyway, if any of you are in Glendale, Ky. this week for their big festival, my husband and I will be there with my homemade quilts for sale as well as his homemade ciders.




We will be set up next to True Kentucky which is behind Benny's Antique Barn. We don't use a tent so just look for the white haired woman (me) who will be sunburning and Mark will have his Retired Army hat on. We love for you to visit.




The two quilts on the top are ones I will also have at Glendale as well.

Good morning


It is Sunday morning in Kentucky and I am in the process of trying to get things cleaned up so I can jump in the shower to get ready to go to church. I will probably be back later this afternoon to tweak this a little more. I had a blog once before but didn't do much with it so I am hoping I will do better this time. I want to leave you with a painting I have done and is listed in my Etsy shop: http://www.KentuckyBackwoods.etsy.com/ if you want to visit there today. I will be back and please always feel free to leave a comment.
First let me say, I don't paint because I delude myself into thinking I am good at it, I paint because I love to paint. If I can get my courage up I may go to college this fall and major in art. Why not start life over at 54, right? Anyway, have a good day and talk to you later.
