Saturday Quilt Day and Sunday Funday

We started the weekend in Windsor for Colorado Quilt  Council.  We had a wonderful speaker, Amy McClellan from Under the Garden Moon Patterns.  She had a great trunk show and talk.  Here are some her quilts and patterns she sells. 

It was a lot of fun with friends.  Later we stopped off at a couple of quilt shops.  I bought this pattern to try my hand at wool applique. 

We ended up at the Black Sheep Wool Shop in Windsor with great instruction. (plus they told us the story of how the store ...way back when... was a mortuary...very cool story)

Lunch at a Hawaiian Restaurant in Windsor . Fabulous food and fabulous friends. 

The teriyaki chicken and salad with miso dressing in awesome!

Sunday was a day of family board games, riding, and making pickled eggs. 

Oh, so much fun. 

We did drive by a few visitors. The Tom thought he would take on my car as a challenge. My granddaughter was behind us and took these pictures for me. 

Then the riding began.

And making pickled eggs. 

Love it that I have granddaughters who want to learn . 

Now we wait. 

Hope your weekend was great. 

The Benefit of Prayer

Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.

~Mahatma Gandhi
