Finally ~


The farmhouse is quiet again...


our visiting family left Saturday, Hannah went back to school today,
and I am basking in the quietness...


I worked a bit on a new wool applique' quilt (pattern model)
and got caught up on the mounds of dirty laundry...
(i swear dirty laundry breeds in the basket...)
at least I could hang them on the line to dry,
as it was a warmer, sunnier day today....


tonight I actually have time to sit here & visit my favorite websites, blogs & auctions.
I've missed doing that for a good couple of weeks!


So, I'm off to visit with those that visit me here...

Tomorrow I'll hopefully have a picture of the wool applique' quilt...

Hoping you're all reaping the benefits of a less-stressed household, and can find some quiet time for yourselves!!!

Oh goodie! Quietness! :) Trinity goes back to school tomorrow. I'm just not going to know what to do with myself for those hours between 8 and 3. NOT! :)

I am enjoying my quiet time too. Working on new projects and just relaxing. I can't wait to see your wool quilt. I love working with wool in my quilting.

I always loved that first day after the holiday vacation when the boys would go back to school. Everything seemed so peaceful!

I can't wait to see the wool quilt. I am not great at applique but I do love it. Maybe I should accept my applique as a primitive attempt!

I remember how nice it was to get back to the "routine" after a holiday...now I have to make "noise" so there isn't too much "quiet time" !! (big smile)...It is easier to be productive with no interuptions I will admit!! Anxious to see your wool quilt!
