My son and DIL got a new king bed so none of the previous quilts I had made them fit. I knew my millennium quilt would fit - it's 8' x 10' - so when I went for a visit Saturday I gave it to them. That was hard to let go of that quilt, but it just sat in a pile ever since I finished it. since I don't know how long it will take me to make the quilt my DIL picked out, this is at least something they can use.
I worked on my new garden bed and my deck garden. Slowly I am getting closer to being done. I planted some of the squash. I will have to finish tonight as I was running out of time last night. I had to put the fence up to keep the deer from eating the squash leaves.
I cleaned off the deck and planted a squash plant in one pot to see how it would do and the two kale plants in another. I also planted some bok choy seeds in the kale pot and bok choy in another pot. I wanted to plant some parsley, but I can't find the seeds I bought.
The deck contractor came Friday night and now I am just waiting to find out what it going to cost me to have my deck replaced. The deck is in bad shape; it was bad when I bought the place. The birds like to pick bugs out of the rotting railing!
The mellinnium quilt looks great on their bed!
ReplyDeleteHow generous of you to give them the millennium quilt. Repeat designs work so well on a bed. Something soothing in the symmetry of repeats. My plants are in but a neighbor's cat digs at night. I'm going to try sprinkling pepper on the ground.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt looks great! I always hate to give up my quilts too! I always want to do a background check on the people getting it.
