Love my Porch and a new Quilt to boot!

What a wonderful day! Overcast and cooler and quiet. My company all left this morning and they even cleaned the house(how lucky was I?) I came home from church and sat on the porch watching the hummingbirds and picking the songs for Sacrament for the next three months. It was truly a nice afternoon. Do you have a porch? My house was built in 1875 and has this side porch off the kitchen(actually we use it as our front door, since no one goes to our front door) and it is surrounded by lilac bushes and trees so it is vey private. I love it. It is my favorite place in the whole yard.


Friday night I had to do something new and fun for a change. I had received Cheryl Phillips Banded Agate pattern and so I got busy and did it. Fun pattern. By midnight I had it finished and love it. I think I should find that blog that is doing the Friday Night quilt project because I could qualify. I still have my two unfinished quilts on the machine to do, but I needed a project that I could see results from. Perfect!

I loved it so much I started another one on Saturday(company had gone on a bike ride and river raft trip) I will finish it tommorrow and post a picture then. Nice feeling to get something done. Summer is flying by and I feel very aware that my projects aren't getting finished like I had hoped. Oh well tommorrow is another day!
