I think you had it right with "your response".
I guess just a spiral block? I drew it up in EQ8 from scratch so I didn't really have a name.
Looking good! I bookmarked your blog to my quilt folder so I can find it again. I haven't put labels on my quilts, I usually just quilt my initials and the year into the pattern. What info do you put on the label?
Thank you!
Thanks! I am pretty happy with how this one is turning out, after agonizing over the pattern.
Thank you!
Thank you! I am so excited to be on that last border. My hands are cooked, I need a break from the quilting part but I can't stop now!
Center blocks done, yellow border done, orange border done. One more to go. Woo hoo!
We're going to randomly blow up boats from other countries instead of getting them to surrender.
We need the giant economy size can for our government.
That is a very happy and fun quilt! 😍
I like this one too, but you really got me with the green.
Awesome!
That is a stunning color!
Sounds like we have the same neighbor. 😬
Yikes! I hope you are healed up soon!
Happy birthday, Baja! 🎂
Oh, my! I hope he is feeling better and is his spunky self soon. He needs to get back to his quilt testing job!
Oh my goodness, the cuteness is blinding! 😍
That's awesome. 🌞
That's very pretty!
And certainly not since he's been in the job.
I hope he is absolutely dying inside.
Sweet Pea looks good in blue. Nice that she has her matching necklace on!
That's really pretty! I think a NYB is in my future. 😍
Thank you!
Right? Sometimes I get Netherlands stuff. I have work friends in both places and wonder if somebody there didn't get their email hijacked.
Very pretty!
I'm having a surge of spam email right now, which is kind of a pain. On the positive side, about 95% of the spam coming into my main bill paying email account is in Italian, which makes it very easy to spot.
Thanks! I'm amazed how much better it looks with the yellow squares done. I'm always a little shocked when things come together. 🥳
Thank you!
Thank you!
That is a great pic by the way.
I think I know where these pics came from... 😄
We saw her there the last time she performed! I just took my hike/bike bro there and we did the meadow or to the little museum. I always like taking a loop around there. 😊
Gorgeous! Harvest time. 🌞
He lives on Maui. He said when you get to the point where you're saying, "do I *have* to look at another waterfall or rainbow?", you have beauty fatigue. 🤣
It can certainly be done in one day, but I personally find that if I try to go everywhere, I get, as my brother calls it, "beauty fatigue". 😄 I have a membership so I usually just go see what I want that day if I'm on my own. Half the time I go, I have guests and I'm being a tour guide.
I know you have your DM's closed, mine are open to people that I follow, so I think you can send me one if you ever want to visit. Likewise all the rest of the crew!
I kind of like now. They have beautiful annual gardens so those are spectacular, and they have idea gardens for vegetables, fruit trees, and landscaping that are showier this time of year. You can't really go wrong though. If you do the whole garden, plan on walking 5 to 7 miles. It's big!
Seriously, come on down and we'll go! 🌞
Let me know when you're getting here, I'll make brownies.
Thank you!
Come on down. Even if my yard stinks, I can take you to Longwood!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks!
Thank you! It is a very good distraction. 😄
All of the spiral arms are finished, working on quilting the yellow squares now.
Happy Anniversary! 💞🎉
Yes. You can. Truth is a defense. 😬
😄🐕
Infuriating.
Been a tough summer but you are welcome any time! 😘
For the most part my garden has been poor this year. Too much cold, too much dry, too much wet, too much hot. At least the lantana are happy and I had a gorgeous swallowtail butterfly today. Longwood is always gorgeous though, so here a few of their waterlilies.
Same here, especially common if you are younger.
With a dress shirt on. Boss!
That is wonderful. Cheers to many more!
I also haven't posted as much lately because my garden is a disaster and the current quilt is taking me forever to finish!
And I'm mostly here. I keep my FB page because it's where my book club and relatives are but I didn't spend much time there.
I have way too much on my plate at the moment... Trying to keep up!
That looks like a fun day despite the rain. I've been trying to eat more whole grains and beans, so now I'm inspired to do lentils too. 😊
That is really beautiful! Love your skinny mini woods!
"end of the day" still makes me shudder after 10 years of retirement.
Too funny! There was one with a drop down box that you could select labels.
Done!
On the thinking we are dumb part... they are at least half right.
😂🤣❄️
Pretty bad when I had to think for a minute to remember which case this was because there are so many.
Spending extra tax money to disrespect people.
I'm so sorry, Juan. She lived to a good old age, but always too soon. Condolences... 💔
😄😂
That's a good one! I don't seem to be able to acquire that talent. I always look like I've been caught doing something I shouldn't.
We remember for him.
So when Mexico returns fire, will it be on Texas?
Lovely!
Lots of leg days at the gym required to carry these beasts around. 😂
On one hand it makes me nostalgically sad to see them disappear. On the other hand, it makes zero difference in my life since I completely stopped shopping there.
They always seem to find a way to twist it in their minds and make it "good". Then they go vote for him again.
They balk this week. By next week they will all have been re-educated.
If that evil little shit thinks insults are going to make the boomers go away he is sadly mistaken.
Wait for me! 😄
Not meaningful but his face looks like a chihuahua.
😲
I didn't even realize that Playboy still existed.
Go to the Popehat cave!
You are allowed to change the channel!
Except he needs swollen ankles. 😆
Great cartoon.
Thank you!
That is beautiful.
One bite at a time...
This is how I look when I'm trying to queue up my next podcast and walk at the same time.
I can't go tomorrow so I passed the sign on. Man it was hot out there today. I hope you have a great event!
My sign for the Indivisible overpass protest today. Lots of honking and cheers, we guesstimated that 4000+ cars went by in the time that we were there. Only a few ugly reactions, overwhelmed by the positives. @pestilence4all.bsky.social I hope you don't mind I snitched shots from your beach fire. 😄
Hoping things all work out for the marina. Sorry the fires messed up your boat time, but live to sail another day. 💙
To us I mean.
