What a Beautiful Morning

It was such a nice morning, temps in the low 60's with a nice breeze reminded me so much of fall. So it was a good morning for my walk and this is a picture of my driveway outside of my house yard. My driveway is a 1/4  mile to the gate where the blacktop is. Right now we have the cows in this pasture which mean I have to watch out for landmines.
Yesterday one of the cows had a calf so I was able to get up close to it and take a picture but mom was not to keen on me getting too close


Isn't he (yes another bull calf) cute.
As you tell from this picture the 6 inches, yes 6 inches of rain we received has worked wonders on greening up the pasture.


And the cows are really enjoying having green grass to eat again

Happy cows I tell ya, laying around, chewing their cuds.

Then I go a little ways past them to get really to my favorite part of my walk, here in this area it is cooler and just smells wonderful every time. Sometimes I smell the sycamore trees, or it could be a woodsy, musky smell and then it just smells like cedar which reminds me of pencils. LOVE IT.

I met the bull on the way back and I guess his du got dirty or he is trying to look good to the girls last night, it was Saturday night you know.

OH RATS

really need to watch where I'm going.

Till next time

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott
