RAINY DAY BASTING THOUGHTS

I'd forgotten just how relaxing basting a quilt in preparation for hand quilting can be;
we are (finally!) having a day of good, soaking rain here.  Mom's Poms will be ready for hand quilting soon....meanwhile, i am "wool gathering" with the sound of the rain as my music.....

Here is the lovely plant that Cathy and Dave sent me upon hearing of Mom's passing--
isn't it GORGEOUS??

Geraniums, begonias and a sword fern....those colors remind me of Mom's joy in living and
that sword plant--just a few prickles to show she was human....;--00,;--)))

I'll be slowly basting, a little at a time, with respites for my back; that is my only project for the week.

I am RE- reading "Ageless Body, Timeless Mind" by Deepak Chopra
....................................... and balancing it with .....................................

Laurie R. King's "The Language of Bees"--a Sherlock Holmes/Mary Russell mystery ...

.and...........................

knitting my 2nd pair of socks....
.
and so life moves on.....
