"OH LOLLY, LOLLPOP..." et al

 "Lollipops" is all quilted now 
and 
Ready to be trimmed up;)))
↧↧↧
Here it is --
trimmed and 
ready to be bound--
with this light lavender binding...
Yes, another one in the pipeline now...;)))
Finally...

*************************
Meanwhile, I have been sewing away
on "Posies"....

Her are the latest blocks
seven out of the final 12...

One more lavender to sew up and
then 4 in blue to be added,

And file under
"just made it"!!:
below↴↴↴↴
This is all that is left of my "leaf" fabric...

I will use these bits and bobs in my
Junque Journal as they are just
too special to be thrown out...

One of my all time favorite
fabrics is finally all used up!!

*****************************
Tonight's dinner menu will include:

 Beef oven roast with pan gravy
 and
mashed potatoes 
and 
petit pois in butter sauce.

We will be eating on the early side
as this is a big meal and we find lately 
that eating too late is 
not good for our
digestions...

************************
We are having very strong winds--
30+mph!!! and
it is "raining" leaves and 
pollen all over the place--it looks like
a hurricane aftermath out there on our deck!!!

It is also pretty chilly with that 
constant gusting north wind
blowing everything around!

A good day to be inside for sure!!

Hugs, Julierose,

Note: edited to add pix of storm aftermath:


Clean up for sure, today.....
