I would love for you to join me (a retired senior)in my zany crafting adventures with quilting (waaaaay too much fabric); scrapbooking (will I ever catch up?); redwork; counted cross stitch; crossword puzzles; reading; and cooking.

D4P's FLIMSIES,et al

 
My first orange D4P in its
"raw" untrimmed stage...
I am trying to "use up" 
loved fabrics--I had no idea how to 
use this cutlery fabric--
And
I have enough to back 
this one, too.
😆
Her is the second Green 
"raw" flimsie
I love how this came out, too...
Also enough to back this
after it is trimmed.  

"Use it up" June is here...

***********************
Our early morning coffee was
sitting out on our deck today..
and
I worked two more rows
on my Granny Stripe Afghan--
it is coming along...

Just a teeney bit on the chilly side,
so this was perfect for a little cover-up
while I crocheted ;)))

**************************
Tonight we will be having Corned Beef
(crockpot cooking--yes!!)
and simple boiled potatoes 
with sliced veggies...
Y  U  M  !!!
[I am also looking forward to
sold leftover corned beef
sandwiches on rye 
with tangy mustard--
Oooh yes!!]

******************************
Tonight is the preview of
the Spanish Grand Prix 
Formula One Race 
[F1]
And Tom's beloved 
"This Old House"
series...so tv shows
all set for us...

STRINGING ALONG, et al

 

Fiona likes purple
(sorry for the darkish photo the
purples are much brighter
in reality)

AND

Willa likes blue

I don't know what these will grow into as yet
[placemats, dolly quilts, lap quilts]

I have raided my leftover blue and
purple scraps and strings to make
these....

They are a work in progress...

I do love to make these string blocks

[to see a lot of other neat
string projects--
visit Cathy at 
"Crazy By Design" blog...]

💝💓💗

**********************
Over the weekend
not much sewing was done;
I took a little break....
And on

Sunday we watched the Formula One
French Grand Prix


Mark Verstappen won for
the Red Bull Team

and a close 2nd was 
↧↧↧↧
Hamilton...
{imagine, they even have
someone to do up their hair}

We had a french toast breakfast
in honor of the race.
So yummy!!!
 
Tom and I so enjoy watching these
races
on Sunday mornings.. 

Next week the race will
be in Austria...

(and what will be 
on the menu
for Austria???
Hmmmm....👵
stay tuned)

***************************

I am still working on my  
Diamond Painting...

she is almost done....

I began this when we shut 
down for
the Corona Virus...
A good way to relieve stress
I've found...


*********************
Hot and very muggy here today...

I hope you are having a 
good week;
stay cool....
