This week has been busy. My husband works out of town and is usually gone for weeks or sometimes (gulp!) months at a time. He's been home this week, which means that I don't get as much done as I would like. He doesn't see "watching me sew" as spending quality time together. Totally short-sighted if you ask me!
I did, however, get a quilt cut out. And all of the blocks sewn together. Here are my scraps (so far):
I am going to have to find something to make with all of these leftover triangles! I also have been stippling quilts for a few people (got to make those payments on my machine). This king-size quilt ended up having over 350,000 stitches of quilting when I was finished:
I wish my points looked that good on the pieced quilt tops that I make! Maybe I should pin a lot bit more.
But I have been spending time with my family too. I swear! Lorelei's school had a carnival the other night. I was expecting cardboard booths with a few toss-across and/or fishing games. This is what we found at the park when we arrived:
There was also a rock-climbing wall but I didn't get a picture of it. The kids enjoyed playing and getting treats.
Don't forget to enter the giveaway I am hosting here. You could win a photo session and full image cd from Alicia Jones Photography.

Loved the cute pictures of the little ones. That snow cone looks delicious!
100 ...great achievement...time does go fast!
Congrats on #100! I'm getting pretty close to 100 myself. Keep 'em coming - I enjoy reading.
Congrats on 100 !! The school kind of by my house (about 5 minutes south) had a carnival - I think last Friday... I am thinking you just might live pretty darn close to me! Or at least the pics make it look like it could be out by me with the mountains that close!
