Listening to the KNUJ radio as they interview people at various local county fairs.

I could do with a bag of Minnie donuts this afternoon.  I know . . . greasy, greasy but the sugar coated little devils fill the bill. 

Dennis is gone for most of this day with family affairs.

I have been up and down the studio stairs taking care of items that need to be taken care of or I will be sorry.

Cabin-BlksIn between times I am working on building five more blocks for my quilt top.  The log-cabin block can be arranged to so many layouts.  I have chosen the “Build the Barn.”  The top dark is the peek of the barn. The secret is to number each block before you take it off the table.  Each block can be rotated four different ways and the sought after layout can get whankie.

Mono-StitchesThis counted cross stitch I have in progress is stitched in what they refer to as mono, one color thread throughout.  I like how it is going . . . to my theme.  I am taking my time charting out motifs to add that relate to my threads and fuzz.  The fabric in the hoop represents a quilt block.  Above that was a motif of a sewing machine.  My time stitching perched upon my cherry red chair in my bedroom porch is relaxing.  Like anything else, pacing myself is the ultimate.  That is why I will be beginning a new book this evening.

I am not making plans to start anything for supper as I have no idea how Dennis’ day is going.  I do not envy him one bit.

With that I take my leave.  ♥
