Good Morning,

How is everyone this morning?! It's NOT raining!!! Hooray!!! ; )

Lori, Dolores & I had a nice trip to the Hayloft yesterday afternoon. Lor bought some patriotic fabrics to make a quilt for a relative who recently joined the Army. Dolores bought some awesome batiks & a cool book. And, I bought a couple fabrics to use with my Flower Pots project. Plus a few homespuns too since I used up most of my stash with the Santa's Blessings project. We topped off our trip with a stop @ the Windmill. We thought of you LA!!! ; )

I received a sales flyer from Sauder's. June 18, 19, 20, 22, 23 are the dates for their sale. Didn't know if anyone might be interested or in "need"...?! Just sharing! ; )

Remember "Mr. Latte?" The 2 dog walking, personal trainer, coffee sipping man who watched me & Jingle River Dance & then do the alligator death roll (without the H2O)...?! Yeh, HIM! Well, Scott & I switched dog walking yesterday so I could go to the Hayloft. Scott had an "incident" with Mr. Latte & his dogs... Let me just say that everyone is alright! Scott came walking around the corner with Jingle approaching the house where these 2 dogs live. They have an electric fence, but the female dog comes a hellin' with spittle flying & then comes to a screeching halt. She's enough to make you pee! Well, last evening, no collar & NO electric fence! She lunged past Scott & got a hold of Jingle. Scott had the 2 of them airborne (yep, that's over 100 lbs of DOG!!!) & was trying to somehow get between the 2 dogs. Jingle was wearing her like a cape as they were flying through the air with Scott spinning them 360!!! Alas, Mr. Latte comes & calls her off!!! Holy crap!!! Scott said the force, speed & strength of the entire event was unreal. It lasted only a few seconds, but was played in s-l-o-w m-o-t-i-o-n for Scott. Lordy!!! We don't see any breaks in Jingle's skin. Scott has some scrapes & scratches & his back is a bit "off," but it could have been a WHOLE lot worse. Gee whizz. I can't go anywhere...!

May your weekend be UN-eventful! Get outside & enjoy this nice weather while it lasts! Stitch when you get a moment!!!
Piecefully, Pam

I'm getting there!!! ; )

Pam - the block is just beautiful - can't wait to see it in person. Looking forward to some trip show & tell too. Dolores - another cool book? You are going to be cranking out some stuff! Did Scott have some words for Mr. Latte - did the guy at least apologize? Glad no one got hurt......I was going to prepare some pratice 'quilt sandwiches' for sewing day - so we can do a little machine quilting, ok? That's on Thursday, June 25th....looks like an up&down weather day. We're celebrating Kid's Day at our house - first day of summer - YAHOO!!!! Consuelo - we're free just about any time for the q'mama bbq - except August 14th, of course. Enjoy the weekend...piece.
