What I did on my Summer Vacation 2009



Yes, I know that it is now October 16th and I haven't been around since August. But I have been living in denial that the seasons had changed. I wanted summer to last forever. I even made a trip to Florida two weeks ago as an extension of my favorite season. But this morning when I got up there was white stuff on the lawn and I could no longer live in my fantasy world. SIGH! So I am back! The pictures above show what I did this summer. As you can see there are NO quilts. We spent our summer traveling to Maryland, Colorado, Florida and New Jersey as well as visiting with family and friends,working in the garden and doing lots of reading on the beach. I did go to the Jacksonville Quilt show with my sister and will show some of those quilts in my next post. The little cutie in pink is my greatniece, Bella, with my sister, Kathy, who turned 50 today! Welcome to the top of the hill sis!! You would never know she was old if I hadn't told you. She looks great and works hard at staying that way!


I have gotten back into the groove of quilting. I am working on some fall quilts now. I hope to have pictures of both of these by the end of October.


My next goal is to get caught up with all of you. I was doing some visiting over the summer but not much. Now that fall is here I will be around to see what's new! Hope all of your summers were as enjoyable as mine was!
