We are half-way through May already. Below is another barn photo with a quilt in it. After I completed it, I took it to show Betty, who's eleven string pieced blocks got this whole project going for me. She did like it, but she does not recall the eleven blocks or quilting at all. She, her hubby, and Mimi the pooch now reside in assisted living.
We just came back from a week-long trip to Ely, Nevada. I feel like the quilt on the barn photo could have been taken in Ely, but I took the photo before our trip. There really are interesting things going on in and around Ely, and no crowds. We had a great time and were not ready to come back home, but we had to, or our plants would have died. I took my sewing machine and a project. I took three books to read, but I read zero. I did zero sewing. I darned one sock and a nice size hole that was in the seam near the left knee of my favorite pink jeans. I glued a bunch of buttons onto a lunch box that I spray painted blue. It was such a relaxing and fun week!
