Noisy Day and Giveaway Winner!

I decided to stay home and get some things done today, one being a new flag wall hanging, so I got the base sewed together and the main applique on. Then I finished off some little pieces that are now drying after I stained them, so I will show them next time.

Today it was air show day, it is noisy, they go right over the house and around the bay as they come in, towards the old base.



As if that is not bad enough, the dog has a thing about planes, he barks at them and runs around the yard like a goof, in a lame attempt to catch them. Tomorrow we are in for more of the same. We are planning on going out to the harbor again, that way we can paddle and see them better from the breakers.



I got a nice surprise in the mail today, a prize I won from Barbara of Cat Patches. I got my choice of book, and she sent me a wonderful kitty fabric, I love the kitties. I will have to make something special with it. The book has some wonderful patterns and tutorials for art pieces, so more new things I can make.



Now for the giveaway. The winner of a free epattern is Dawn of Quilts and Pieces!
Congratulations Dawn. Please send me an email with you choice of pattern from my ecrater site.

    I wonder why it is that airplane noise doesn't seem to bother much ~ maybe because they always seem so "important..." Congratulations, Dawn!!! (And you Debbie & your hubby again on your anniversary! Thanks for another fun giveaway!) Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

    IF those are the Blue ANgels..I love their show! But I don't think I would want them buzzing right over my house..it is an awesome show however! Love your fabric and all your books. Looks like you are going to be a busy gal!
