So obviously I've located the camera, cord, and have some things done to show you! First of all, here's a picture of Melanie's quilt--she's finally preggers after years of trying--so these squares need to be trimmed, put with the Gohn Bros. cotton batting that came two weeks ago, and quilted:
and then, I've been playing in my new Grove City yard, front and back--kinda tricky because I have to leave those icky non-edible things the landlord put there (I think they are called flowers?) but the poles are ready for beans and the gourds are ready for, well, gourds, and I've planted five rose bushes and have three more to go. Birdhouses are hung, shepherd's crooks are in place, and we bought a reel lawnmower--works great! no more gasoline, fumes, dust flying, spark plugs, sore shoulders from trying to yank it's cord . . . much better!
Then there's the goodies from the Dexter United Methodist Sale I took Michelle to up in Michigan last week. This is 15 loads of sheets, yardage, pillow cases, and curtains, all washed and line-dried and ready to organize and sew into aprons and sunbonnets. This is the week I set up my Apron Blog that will have the paypal widget on it, for selling online (no more etsy--and their percentage!)
And the very best news of all--we are starting Quaker First Day meetings here at my home, 11:00 on Sundays, starting this very next Sunday, May 3rd. I am hoping the two benches the neighbor is building for me will be done in time! I seem to have blessings at every turn, Husband's job is good, I'm getting some interviews, there's enough stock to open the online store and endless amounts of fabrics to keep going, and my spinning wheel part should be back from Norm Hall soon--so I can finish that Sauder Village promise!
