Scenes of Summer


Hi everyone! How was your summer? Mine was filled with extraordinary moments shared with extraordinary friends, like Wanda Hanson of Exuberant Color, who surprised me with one of her signature batik colorwash quilts. Isn't it stunning? Read more about it here



Of course, visits from quilters are always welcome, especially when they bring "show and tell." Here's Sheila with her Sunflower quilt and me with Wanda's Zig-Zags.


Jenny graced us with fresh-picked cherry tomatoes and basil from her garden. Jean shared delicious peach cobbler (made with real Georgia peaches) and the best blueberry pie I've ever tasted!


Local troubadour, Bill Glaysher, serenaded me one afternoon. Swoon!


Which enabling friend helped make this online purchase? I couldn't resist a few new American Jane fabrics in summer hues.


Bev, a veteran English teacher, volunteered to read aloud to me. Her soothing voice was absolute bliss!



Jim and I even got to attend a bridal shower hosted by friends Mark and Linda for their daughter and son-in-law to be. What lured us out on a 97-degree day was the promise of mango mimosas and eight different kinds of cake!



Thanks, everyone, for making it such a memorable summer!
