We've been on the road--traveling to visit with second daughter in Colorado. How nice to see her and enjoy some cool weather.. Afraid we ate all the wrong foods, enjoyed rich comfortable leisure---making it double hard to come back to 'normal' life. Since we did a road trip by car, we could stop along the way to see unusual sights--there is a road that bends when you reach New Mexico and from that bend in the road you see the whole Colorado front range--what a sight! Snow capped mountains! Cue the music--Ah, Rocky Mountain High!
Now, here we are--trying to settle back into a routine. not fun! I want to continue in vacation mode; alas, there is unpacking to do, laundry, check out the mail, friends calling (that's nice, they missed us!)
Visiting our Daughter's house, renews my mind of the quilts she treasures as they adorn the walls.
I forget about the ones that were gifted; always happy my handwork is enjoyed.
At Christmas time, when the family has gathered, I lay out the quilts made in the past year or two and offer them to whom ever wants to give them a home.
This quilt was made through 'The Quilt Show"--remember that it was a monster to tackle, but so worth the challenge; especially when I see it displayed in her foyer!
In her guest bath she has my hand spun, handwoven hand towels--made from natural cottons.
I love drying my hands with this luxury!
Gives me pleasure to see and touch them!
As I sit in a hotel room, I work on my hat knitting--couldn't find the stitch marker but did see this piece of plastic; worked great for a marker. Finished the hat too!
