Now that I'm back on my own computer, I'm going to try to tie up a few loose ends for June as July bears down upon us.
First, the last of June's piggies, which I would have posted on Saturday for ScrapHappy Saturday...
I think I'm caught up through the 15th of May, which sounded pretty good to me until I remembered that it's nearly the end of June...
Though it wasn't all sewing while I was in Maryland. There was another trip to the botanical garden (I could go every week, I think, and enjoy each visit just as much as the last!) I did a lot of stopping to smell the roses,
while my grandson took a more active approach to the day.
There's a terrific maze next to the Japanese Garden, which most people walk. Our young Mr C preferred it at high speed.
Back at the ranch, there was an interesting foray into the realm of rhubarb cocktails -
though I stuck with beer. Pink is real nice and all, but not what I want in a beverage.
There were several monkeys, but this is the only one who stood still long enough to get a picture.
And I completely missed the boat on Log Cabin Loonies. I did manage to get a few thrown together. Though you'll notice that one of them is one log short of a cabin.
That may be my new favorite euphemism...
Welcome home! I just realized that Jenny Doan's video for the Spring Rain quilt is your monkeys! I love the Kitty Pig best.
ReplyDeleteMighty fine pigs, ma'am. But the Barnwood Builders might get after you for bein' a log short of a cabin. Just sayin' ...
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! I missed my pig and monkey fixes!
ReplyDeleteI thought those maze thingys were supposed to relax you and make you feel one with nature or something! I didn't know they were supposed to be such fun.
Ha! I love it, one log short of a cabin!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Visiting is nice but there's no place like home, right? I am that way. You're doing very well with the 365 Challenge. I love your May basket and the silver maple. The kitty / piggy is so cool. I'd like that pink beverage please, lol. ;^)
ReplyDeleteSo interesting seeing what you get up to, lots of new blocks & lots of variety!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing what new piggie appears on your blog.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I did not notice it was one log short until you pointed it out... I must be several logs short of an outhouse!
ReplyDeleteYippee! Welcome back. And given that one of your pigs has been eating cats, you're lucky that you had a cat when you got back.
ReplyDeleteLove the piglets, as usual and pleased to see you're back home and re-united with your stash!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you've been keeping busy! Seeing your new monkey made me want to go make some, so I think I will!
ReplyDeleteI'm still loving the piglets! Also your challenge block, third picture down, with the red corners,is absolutely gorgeous!
