Beautiful Customer Quilt

I finally finished quilting Carolyn Ormond's sampler quilt.  What a stunner!


The edges are both angular and circular.  She should have fun binding it!  I decided to use white thread and do mostly background quilting to make the dark motifs pop. 


Some of the shapes were too large to be left unquilted, so I added some lines to enhance the motifs.



It was a pleasure to work on such a pretty quilt!

The mountains are starting to change color.  We had some pretty rides last weekend.



We continued to work on the landscaping.  I moved a lot of dirt and gravel around as Charlie filled in with the tractor.



Just a few steps and the Great Wall project will be finished.


We will eventually paint, stucco, or add cultured stone to the cinder block, which is now painted with dry-lock.


We were all tired after the weekend...even the dogs (we had our grand-dog Roo with us.)
