Good Bye Sandals...Hello Snow

I said good bye to my sandals...

at least till Spring.

 

We always travel in January

so

 we are home for calving which will start in a couple of weeks

 

Maybe I can get the cows to schedual their calving this year....

 

I eased into my regular life by going to guild

where the Estevan girls came for a visit

and

gave us a hand to start hand quilting this Grandmother's Flower Garden

 

They brought out some show and tell

 

This was Maria's Tessilating Stars

 

Miss Rose's hand quilted Missouri star quilt

 

Eileen's in different colors

 

I also unpacked my treasures from my trip

 

A table cloth from Caribelle Batiks

 

My shop hop fabrics from The Quilt Shop of Deland,Fl

 

The first is words(I can't resist), the 2nd is the Australian Fabric,

and

the 3rd is the line of fabric created by the shop owner.

 

I think they would make a cute bag...

particularly...this one!!

 

At the World Quilt Festival I snatched up some little tags

 

Purse handles

And this polish that smooths out your extension table.

Then I dove into putting my Farmer's Wife Quilt together

 

It's going to be a big quilt!!

 

In Bismark, I stumbled on this short piled minky that looks like cow hide

 

I think it's in keeping with the ranching theme so it will  be the back!!

 

Now...

to find some warm socks....
