Happy Pink Saturday All

It's funny, I did my post for today on Wed. and put it on scheduled posting, but it's gone.  I must have hit a wrong key and didn't even know it. lol  duuuuh  I hope that doesn't mean it's going to be one of those days. lol

Thank you to Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for hosting Pink Saturday for us.  Be sure to swing by and check out Jesse at Moda Manana, one of our newest bloggers too.

Happy Halloween  to everyone too, we're having rain today, but it's supposed to clear by tomorrow.  I sure hope it does for all those young children all excited about Trick or Treating!

This is a set of cannisters that belonged to my mother, my siter tells me they are Bauer probably painted by the California Cleminsons, Betty and George (I believe).  My memory isn't that great so I wrote it down, but now I've misplaced my notebook. duuuh.  It IS one of those days. lol    I just love them though, they're so cheerful. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Pink Saturday and safe week end.  God Bless and keep you all.

My Fall Quilt

This is a picture of my "Fall Quilt" that I was so determined last year to make for myself.  I got it this far and fiinally got it on the frame the other day.

The churn dash in the block is actually a little oranger than it is the gold it shows in the photo.  I'm very happy with the way it's come out though.  I hope by this week end I'll have it quilted and then get the binding on it and use it! yaaaay!    lol   I've got to get busy on my grandson's black and white quilt.  He asked me for one earlier this year and I'm hoping to have it done for him by Christmas.  If not his 18th birthday is in March I'll have it for him then.    The goal is Christmas though.  I have a number of baby quilts to make for the Mozaic Church nursery.  I've lots of fabric for kids so they should come out pretty good, it's just a matter of finding the time to make them:)   Have a Happy Pink Saturday everyone and a Blessed week end.:)

Matthews Quilt

I'm finally getting started on Matthews quilt for Chirstmas.  It's a simple Disappearing 9 patch so it shouldn't take long.  It's in black and whites

He asked me for a black and white quilt so thought Christmas would be a good time to give it to him.   Of course if I don't get my tail in gear and get it done, he won't have it. lol  I have a number of other things get done too, so if this isn't finished I can give it to him for his birthday in March.  I would like to give it to him for Christmas though.  So gotta  get going:)  Have a great day everyone and God Bless!

Happy Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday!!  This week I have these lovely Jade plants that my friend in the Bay Area gave me when we went to visit.  Jeanette has a plant that is probably 3 or more feet in diameter and  close to 4 feet tall .  It's magnificient.  So Jeff cut me off a bunch of pieces and I came home and planted them!  All of them are growing!  The big one has 4 large one's in it and then there's two to three in each of the smal pots, incluging new one's growing from the leaves that fell off.  I have a variegated Jade that's about 18 inches tall and I love it.  These are going to catch up in no time at all at the rate they're going!

You can see how big the luffa is getting. lol  This is still the one and only one on the vine. On one of 9 vines as a matter of fact!  A little disappointing, but one is better than none so I'm happy for the one.  I'm going to try and add this to my other pages, I'm trying something new on Blog.  Static Pages?  Do you know what those are?  Well, I'm hoping to learn to day.  So I'm adding this to my Luffa posts.  I have some awesome news to share but want to be able to get it all in and it will take more than one post.:)  I haven't gotten things figured out and it wouldn't work with my PS post anyway. lol duuuh
