last day of June, 2004
Started out this way:
Ended with finding a big bag of wonderful sweet cherries at the grocery store, along with boxes of inexplicably cheap dried turkish apricots. And now an evening of sewing small squares together. A good day. Goodbye June, til next we meet.
Red Sky Red Sky
It’s done. And I actually got to spend some time today just looking at it. Now it’s on to the next — let’s just say – piecing shall we?
If you want to see how fabulous my mom’s purple clematis is doing – go here. I can tell you that even her white double clematis is doing beautifully. Only goes to prove that whole “she could grow tin cans” thing I heard about her….
May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness,
May all be free from sorrow and the causes of sorrow;
May all beings never be separated from the sacred happiness, which is sorrowless.
What a lovely sentiment. Thanks to Brewed Fresh Daily for bringing it to my attention.
For those of you who wonder about this, and because I wonder about this too sometimes, here’s the first post I could find on the “red sky red sky” quilt. So – it all started sometime in late October. I do sort of remember going to part of a work day at East Side and cutting many many strips. And that it was about the time I had my disastrous encounter with the “variable lens” glasses. ick. But look, it all came to a good end — bifocals and this wonderful quilt. All good.
