It's been a very busy,
but enjoyable month.
~~~***~~~
First, I want to give you a brief
tour of the gardens.
~~~***~~~
This is our first year to grow cabbage.
It's looking good, even the bees like it :)
Here's the zucchini patch.
I haven't picked any yet,
but look, can you see that first one?
I'll probably pick it for tomorrow's dinner.
Last week I started seeing quail
in the yard.
Aren't they pretty?
We have tomatoes on the vine :)
And the dill reseeded itself,
wasn't that sweet?
For the past two weeks my nephew
from Indiana
has been here visiting.
This is him loading up to leave.
Him and his wife are now on their
way to Alaska.
I saved some vegetable tins
and planted them up with succulents.
This little crate was a yard sale find
years ago.
I think it gives them a cute
farmhouse look.
While I was taking photos in the yard,
I thought that I would show two of
my favorite garden ornaments.
Our daughter made us this back in
March of 2008.
It is the footprints of our
two sweet granddaughters
when they were toddlers.
And this stepping stone was a gift
to ourselves on our 25th anniversary.

I've started buying quilting supplies
for winter. Once the weather gets cold
and the roads are icy, I plan on
staying home and quilting :)

This sells for 17.99 a yard at our
Joanna Fabrics.
I bought 40 yards for $200 on Amazon.
That's $5 a yard.
And reason to do my happy dance :)
I also bought more fabric.
I always wash it and iron it before
using it.
So this afternoon
I ironed and folded these.
I buy my fabric online and I always
buy last year's designs.
You can find them for half price or less.

I have one more item to show you
before I say good-bye.
Yesterday I had to run to Home Depot
and on my way I saw a Yard Sale sign.
So of course I stopped.
This is what I purchased for $3.
it's on a lazy Susan
and will be very handy next to my
sewing machine.
That's it . . .
if you're still here
and I haven't bored you to death,
Thanks so much for visiting.

Keep Smiling!
Your blogging sister,
Connie :)
