Just a Quick Check-In

The 4th of July holiday weekend 

is over here in the states.

We had great time 

celebrating with the family.

Hope you did too.

I also wanted to thank everyone

for your birthday wishes and 

for leaving comments for 

my birthday giveaway last week.

Running Man wanted to choose everyone,

but we limited it to 3 and those

blogging friends  have been notified.

Michelle B.

Angie H.

Cathy B.

Thanks again, everyone.

I'm looking forward to a

wonderful year.

My maniac sewing resulted

in my finished top for

my blue and white version

of a Burgoyne Surrounded.

But right after I posted my photo

my eye immediately saw this

I felt bad for a few moments

until I remembered that the original

quilt made in 1880 had an oops too.

Am I going to change it?

Nope, it's going to stay.

We've had some violent thunderstorms

rolling through the last couple of evenings.

The yard and garden got pretty beat up 

with the hail.

I just wanted to show you

a photo of these clouds
I took from the backyard.

Mammatus Clouds 

They can be seen before, after or during

a thunderstorm.

They are pouches 

formed by sinking air.

Cool, huh!

My upcoming week is

going to register high on the fun meter.

Running Man and I are going tent camping

with our daughter and her family. 

Should be fun!

I'm even going to bring along

a little stitching.

It's always good to think positively.

Until Next Time-

Kyle
