Finally a quilt picture

Baby Jesslyn on a quilt I made her mama a few years ago. I made this in workshop. A panel in the center but I can't remember the name of the blocks. I have a kit to make another one but can't find the block instructions. I may just use a disappearing nine patch. I think that would be alot faster.

Why I don't have time to blog

Sizing up the competition

Catnapper

Found this starving kitty under my shrubs today. I think I know who her sorry owner is but I have catnapped her. She has been inside a few hours and is already ruling the roost. I think she may be a keeper :-)

Please indulge me

while I show off my new grandbaby again. Wasn't Jesslyn bright-eyed for just 8 days old in these pictures? Hope to be showing her quilt all finished and labeled soon.

New grandbaby

My new grandbaby arrived last Thursday. Jesslyn Claire came home today. We are all so excited to have another little girl to love in the family.

new camera

Finally bought a new camera. After doing lots of research I decided to buy a Canon.... got to the store and bought a Kodak easy share with extended zoom. I was able to take and delete pics in the store with it and I couldn't figure the canon out. I decided "easy" was important for me. Rusty and Dixie are my practice subjects until the new grandbaby arrives.

Papa and Nanny's quilt

I spent the day Thursday with my daddy while my mama was volunteering at the hospital. I did a little plundering and found the quilt my great grandma made for them before they got married. She did it all by hand and embroidered the love birds names on it. So sweet! I hope to photograph all of mama's quilts someday. Papa does not like my plundering LOL so only got pics of this one so far.
