Back In The Saddle Again!

Finally I'm back ! I remember this song from when I was a little girl and I kept humming it all week while contemplating returning to my first blog. I was big on cowboy TV shows when I was in my 'little girl' stage of life. You know...Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Sky King, etc. I even had a cowgirl outfit I dressed up in.
I admit I've been very neglectful here since my last post in July. So what have I been doing with my time since then?
   1. Somewhat tending a dismal garden... awful weather this year, not much of a harvest. However, I was successful with growing garlic and I managed to can 14 pints of carrots again this year.
  2. I took some free online art classes and made a new friend from those classes who lives about 5 miles from me. We meet for coffee every week and share our new artwork with each other. I'm working on a piece I will show you in my next posting.
  3, I'm still quilting and managing our quilt guild's blog, twilightstitchers92.blogspot.com 
Here are three of the blocks I made for this years guild project. Each member has chosen a block pattern to share with the others and when the quilt is completed members will have a treasure to remember our quilting sisters by.


 4. I blog once a week on my other blog asweetsavor.blogspot.com
 5. I did get a chance to do a little hiking on a local trail, Great Bear Springs.


 In the coming days I will be back to posting on a regular basis, hopefully every week. It's all a matter of getting my priorities in proper order. I'll be back soon!

A New Project And A New Blog

When I get tired of seeing snow this time of year, I put the snowmen decorations away and look for something to brighten the atmosphere in our home. Last year I started collecting cardinal decor. Cardinals being the birds not the baseball team. LOL I saw this pattern on Pinterest and had to order it.
I've started on it and have progressed further than what this picture shows and I can't wait to get it finished.

And now for the big announcement!!!!! I've started another craft blog. It's aimed at those of faith returning from the nations back to the Hebrew roots of the Bible but all are welcome to visit and use my ideas for themselves. I include, and will continue to add to, many links to related websites and sources for crafting materials and will be sharing my own creations and giving ideas of how to incorporate their faith into their crafts. I will be posting twice a week, once on Monday and again on Thursday. Between my two blogs I'll be spending a lot of time in the studio crafting. My new blog is: asweetsavor.blogspot.com

A Quick Check In

Our lifestyle has changed since my husband of nearly 50 years had a serious stroke in May 20019. No more running out for groceries when I wa...
