It was another whirlwind busy week. In between showers this past week, I tried to get outside and get some yard work done. It was pleasant this week between showers getting into the high 60's and low 70's. Things are blooming around here between the pesky weeds.
This area is a big area to weed, and I have about 1/2 of it done.
Tuesday night was Begonia Society meeting. At that meeting we had a speaker from Sac State talking about ferns. I took one of my ferns in to see if he had ever seen anything like it. It is a descendent of a fern that has been in my husband's family for 122 years at least. It looks like a Boston fern, but then it has lacy like leaves, and then some with both traits on one frond. He said he had never seen anything like it, but it looked like it had mutated a number of times. I have had this one, and another one for at least 30 years.
We usually have a drawing for plants at our meetings. We buy tickets and this time we had begonias and ferns to draw from that our speaker had brought in. I had the first number called and I chose this staghorn fern.
Wednesday I had guild meeting, and afterwards went to a brunch for Drew, granddaughter Kyleigh's boyfriend. His mother, brother and grandmother also joined us. Drew loved his new camping quilt.
This week, I finished up this Kathy Schmitz embroidery.
This Hand Quilt Along is an opportunity for hand quilters and piecers to share and motivate one another. We post every three weeks, to show our progress and encourage one another. If you have a hand quilting project and would like to join our group contact Kathy at the link below.
Kathy, Margaret, Deb, Nanette,
