As always most of my quilts are gifted as prayer quilts. I hadn’t realized until lately that I seem to be slowing down and don’t get as many done. Figured I’ll post them by the month. These are ones I finished in June of 2025. More months coming up next.

The first is a hexagon because you know I love making them. The second is a panel I’ve been planning for a while.

Like I mentioned, life is pretty quiet but I did buy new living room furniture last year. When I looked it up it didn’t seem that long ago but the boys and I love it. Had to add a cartoon just because I found it funny.

Our friend Pam amd her family take a trip each year and if any way possible she brings each of us a piece of fabric from her trip and we all make a quilt. 2025 was her trip to Japan. We are blessed she’s willing to run around in all these countries and find us something special.

She let us each pick a piece and I made one for a headboard above my bed. Hoping at some point to add a matching bed runner.

Some of the individual blocks.

I had to post these just because he’s so cute. He will literally sleep anywhere. He loves the Crack between the sofa and the wall.

I had to stop and ask myself so what have I been doing since last year. It’s pretty easy to forget to blog it because I live a pretty quiet life but that works for me. Not much exciting goes on except work, quilts and dogs.

Funny update with dogs. We had to get a new groomer and unfortunately I wasnt completely clear when we talked about short hair for the summer. She shaved Argus and Baby dog almost down to the skin. Believe it or not it has taken close to a year for Baby dog to grow his coat back. Merlin never has to worry as he gets a very basic trim. Unfortunately that groomer is now gone so we are looking for a new one AGAIN.

Someone asked me about my blog yesterday and once again I had completely forgotten about it. I guess its easy to do because I pretty much just write it for me and I think maybe only one or two people even know it’s here.

So, that being said. Let me see if I can catch things up. Might take a bit as looks like I haven’t posted in over a year. It took me a couple of days just to figure out how to do it again.

A dear friend in Las Vegas donated some fabrics for our prayer quilts this week. I couldn’t believe when I opened the box and found this beautiful embroidered towel. We have so many wild chickens in our neighborhood that it fits my kitchen perfectly. In fact Claudia’s husband came last week and rounded up one that had laid eggs in the yard so the dogs didn’t get her.

I attended the mother day luncheon at church again this year and decided to offer a quilt to raffle. The tickets were sold at the luncheon and I was so thrilled they were able to raise $800 from the ticket sales. The money was donated to the local children’s home. The quilt was made using all Kaffee Fasset fabrics and I love how it came out an may have to make another for myself.

Two more quilts done. The fish has been delivered and the green and white one will go this Sunday. I received a beautiful card from the gentlemen that received the fish quilt. My dear friend Marilyn is kind enough to deliver the quilts for me.

Of course the other 2 were groomed as well. They never smell but they sure look better than when I groom them. Unfortunately we now have Merlin and Argus on meds for different things. It cracks me up how as soon as they see those medicine bottles they are gone. Grooming wears them slap out.

Had to add a pic of Argus in his post groom jammies.
