I had so much planned for today – outside. Maybe tomorrow?
I’ve been working on the quilt for Jenny’s baby but of course I can’t show you because she reads the blog. I’ll send it to her before the baby is born and then I’ll show you. It’s definitely an improv pieced quilt – something I love to do so there will be no pattern.
It’s so warm out I haven’t felt pressured to bring more plants in but my FB feed keeps showing a plant spray for gnats – I see it about every 3rd entry! Anybody use the stuff? I don’t remember having an issue in the past but I don’t want to lose all my plants either.

Ursula said all blocks are 10” – such great quilts!

On our way back from the hayfield we took the wilderness trail to the northwest corner where it’s very thick undergrowth and the dogs suddenly chased something. I thought it was a squirrel but I honestly think it was a cat up the tree – a cat that I don’t know but I just had to go fast so the dogs would leave and quit barking at what I think was a cat. I did not get the chance to return but I did put a supply of dry cat food in the woodshed. Looks like the cat distribution system is working again.

This is what I’m cutting down by the barn – I know it as Sweet Annie. We bought it from a vendor at the Country Living Fair many years ago. A dried bouquet has become a noxious weed around the barn. I do love the smell tho and I will hang bundles of it inside the barn this winter.
Church at 10:30 tomorrow morning – I couldn’t sleep on Saturday nights all summer because church started at 9:30 and I was always afraid I’d oversleep and not get the chores done before I had to leave. One time my nightmare came true – I mistook the time and was late – the pianist!!!!!
