unique and I REALLY like it. I have never seen one with the tiny 9 patch bordering the heart, very clever. I may have to try something similar one of these days. BEAUTIFUL Linda! I don\'t have the patience for the itty bitty squares, I admire your devotion Linda.

We have had wind warnings and Adam dogs have gotten out TWICE, 3 times if you count when they got out of the kennel but did not leave the yard! I hope he is out there fixing fence and doing WHATEVER it takes. We live less than one house from busy street and they have NO traffic sense.

I spend all day yesterday piecing together a quilt back. I was trying to follow the suggestion of Karen Brown\'s \"After quilt\" of the \"Just get it done quilts\" and making a back out of all the leftover quilt fabric. I will try ONE more today for the dinosaur quilt and if it does not go a WHOLE lot faster than the last one, I will go back to buying 108 wide backings!

Keepsake quilts had 3 yards of 108 camouflage for just $23!!! Since I did not know what I was going to use it on, I did not order any. It would make good backing for jean quilts so I may have to rethink that.

Our weather has been crazy, gets into the 70s and drops to mid-30s at night. The new area I was developing has bulbs in blooms. My tulips out front are in bloom too and the clematis is growing like CRAZY putting on new growth. I have not yet clipped the dead foliage from last year.
