Good Windy Evening To All!

...I hope everyone is staying out of Hurricane Sandy's way. We're in Ohio, but it's still windy out. I just hope our relatives in Virgina are safe & sound. And also our friends in Baltimore.

I'm looking for the next pattern to make another quilt. I'm looking at one called " Splash Of Color".

I'm going to go and watch Hannity tonight.

This is first photo ever taken of Cincinnati, Ohio in 1848...


And here it is today...

Got A Question!

Has anyone here tried the Deoborah Norville yarn EVERYDAY ? I love it! It's so soft!  I made an afghan out of it. The color is called Antique Lavender.

   Here is a picture of it laying on our Blue Lazy Boy chair.



I used my favorite stitch on it. " The double Puff " :-)

My Little Rant...

I have a small rant...

   I can't stand those nosey & condescending political phone calls. "I" know whom I'm voting for. It's none of the " Caller's " business. And as for the junk mail ads... UGH... By the time Nov. 6 is here, we would have enough Romney & Obama ads to wall paper the house. That is if I actually kept those ads. They go straight into the garabge can.   O.K.  I think that's enough. ;-)

Been Awhile...

I have been reading lately and forgot all about posting. I read " The Silent Governess "... loved it !!!

  Also, I watched a documentary that I liked. John Adams. I enjoyed it. But then again, I like history.

I tried to watch that debate last night. But Candy ( moderator ) really messed it up.

   Not too much write about it at the moment.

Usher Party

Good Evening!

   The usher party went fine today. More people then I thought came. :-)

  Here is a picture of the decorations in front of the house.

My sister put that togather.

Here is the Table Runner I made before it got covered up with food.



Have a good night!

Just Finished It!

I just got finished with the tablerunner & hot pads I made for my Mom's party which is tomorrow.

Here is a close up at the fabric I chose. ( no pattern to it, I just made it up once I knew what I wanted.)

And here it is in full length.



What do you think? Good enough for a party of Music Lovers?
