Hopefully Summer Is Just About Here...

Yahooo....It has stopped raining just long enough for me to get my yard cleaned up and my flowers planted...You know what they say about living in the pacific northwest..That summer doesn't start until after the 4th of July....Most of the time we watch fireworks shivering under blankets...Wishing we had hot chocolate...I think this year might be some of the same, with Tuesday having clear skies and temp. in the high 70's....I'm not really complaining this is a beautiful place to live and I'm sure some of you out there in blog land are warmer than you would really like to be...
The best thing that has happened to me is that I have had a little time to stitch and sew...
I though I would share the items I'm listing on Early Work Mercantile tonight....
I can't seam to get enough strawberries...That being said....First of is my robin sitting on a strawberry pin-keep...


Next I'm offering two different size watermelon pillows....



Watermelons always say summer fun to me...





Last is my fabric covered box....cover in a antique summer looking fabric and lined with pages for a children book I found at the bottom of a box that my dear husband thought was garbage..He tries but he never can tell treasures for junk...

Well, that is all the fun facts I have for today...Thanks for all the kind comments they make my day.....I'm hoping that you can find plenty of time to stitch, Nancy

Life Has Been Crazy!!!!!

Life has been crazy around here....I guess it is because of all the thing that come with the end of another school year and the start of the summer season....I am finding that I am not getting as much time to stitch and sew as I would like...I did manage to finish one item to list on TDIPT tonight....My summer pillow....Don't you just love flags, watermelon and sunflowers this time of year??? They are my favorite...





I also finished another block on my BOM....I must say it made be very happy, the only problem is it is the block for March....So I have mayor catching up to do...I might finish the quilt in 2014, we can only hope...


And last is a picture from our first family BBQ of the season...I can't think of anything funner than hamburgers and water balloons....
That is all the fun facts I have for today....Thanks for stopping by and for all your nice comments, they make my day, Nancy
