Color


Lots of color and scrappiness in this HST (half square triangle) quilt.   Looking forward to adding borders and backing.


Selecting fabrics for the next quilt:  Crosses and Losses, a Civil War quilt


Found these depression era dishes in a junk store.  This pattern is Jadeite/Fire King.  Grandmother Rebecca had some of these dishes.  The nice fresh green color will be used for spring and Easter decorations.

BLACK and BLUE--no photo
Wish I could say I was talking about Blackberries and Blueberries for a fruit cobbler pie.  Nope, black and blue describes me.  Was doing some spring cleaning last week and took a fall.  At the sake of dating myself, does anyone remember Chevy Chase and the opening scenes from Saturday Night Live when Chevy did the fall?  Visualize those scenes in your mind,  I was that graceful.  My fall did provide some comic relief from washing windows.
