Longarm quilting and snippets of my life

I don’t spend a lot of time on the computer, and I realize it’s been a long time since my last post. I’ve been enjoying the beautiful weather we’ve been having here in the NW corner of Oregon. This is our favorite place to stop and have lunch, my backyard. lazy days Millie had a very fun time at the beach a few weekends ago. millie's first day at the beach I don't like to get my feet wet teamwork Here she was helping her cousin Henry. They’re such a cute pair! It was a beautiful weekend at the coast and my older brother, Scott, joined us. cindy and scott He stayed in my sister, Cindy’s, campsite. It was a fun time.

I have been doing some quilting. Nothing spectacular, but here’s some shots of a couple of recent quilts. peggy's curvy quiltart nouveau pantoback of art nouveau panto cross stitch quiltcrossed stitch bordercrossed stitch back

Today is my birthday, and I’m trying not to let it get me down. I’m 47, it feels like a yucky number. I’ve never had any problem turning any age, but this one’s got me bugged. Cindy’s coming over and we’re going to get pedicures, and Jim and Robert are taking me out to dinner tonight. I’m making the best of it.

  1. Happy Birthday Carie… 47 is OK. It’s 48 I’m not looking forward to and it’s only a 2 months away.

  2. Happy Birthday Carie! Don’t sweat 47…it’s not bad at all…I was there many years ago and it didn’t do me in, lol!! At least I don’t think it did!

    Enjoy your day and dinner with family.
