This week I finally finished the baby quilt. I hand stitched around the designs, to keep it simple and I wanted it to be puffy and soft. The panel was gifted to me by my sister in law, so I would say it is vintage. The only problem with it is, there is a tiny dark spot on one of the outer edges. I washed it and it faded a bit, but still there, so hopefully the recipient won't mind.
For the back, I used a cute flannel. Slowly using stash I got, and this flannel was perfect for a soft backing.
Last week we got out for another walk at the farm. It was beautiful with all of the lupines, lining the pathway.
We also took a stroll down the back road, that follows the river and back around to the farm. A lot of beautiful homes along the way, with views of the river.
Lots of birds along the way and this Song Sparrow, followed us a bit and sang to us.
Today my husband got stuck at work so we didn't get out for a paddle. Hopefully we can get out tomorrow if it is not too windy. I have been painting a few more rocks and started another project, so hoping to get those all done, next week. I have a lot to do around the house and getting the trailer ready.
I hope everyone is enjoying the summer weather and not in the stormy areas. Here is has been too hot, so I can't get outside as much, but on weekends we can get down to the cooler end near the ocean.





We are getting rain off and on it has been warm but not to bad.
