Other than sewing/pressing the Bricks and Stepping Stones blocks and the D9P blocks, those will be about my only goals this week. I am planning to drive to Orchard tonight to sew with the Nebraska ladies. We'll see how tired I am by the end of the day. Missed the stash report yesterday, but that's ok, as it hasn't changed, nothing bought and nothing finished. And there isn't a design wall in the camper, so no pictures!
I hope the summer is treating everyone well, the weather has been different this year. Lots of rain and cooler weather until the last few days, and then it was hot and muggy. I haven't accomplished much of anything it seems. No garden to speak of, so no canning.
I do have something to look forward to, Mason and family will be coming to visit in early September for Mason's birthday, can hardly believe he'll be a year old. Laura Beth wishes he would stay a baby forever. Me, I just wish we all lived closer so grandma and grandpa could play with him more. sigh
In the evenings if it's not hot or windy, sewing outside is great. Lots of room to spread out, and the threads can fall on the ground! I have gotten over half my blocks sewn together into pairs, it goes fast if I stay off the PHONE!! And if you wonder what I see when I'm outside--here's my view.
The little white bag you see "suspended" in midair is actually a finch feeder hanging from a long fishing pole. I often see finches eating from it, both purple and the gold ones.
This is another view from my picnic table, the camping spots are quite high, and I look over into the tops of the trees. Each camping spot is huge, and has a picnic table (or more if you'd like them), full hookups and a fire ring. We also have our own picnic shelter that all the campers share (all 4 of us!) LOL I see deer, turkeys, and all other sorts of wildlife walking across my campsite. We are quite secluded, you can't "see" into the camping area from the road, so no one drives through. Although it looks like we are miles from anyone when you are there, I am about six blocks from the Visitor Center! 
It had all sorts of goodies in it! Green fabric! Red noodles! An angel (did you remember I love and collect angels Julia??) And brochures, I am a brochure nut, I read them all! Julia send me one I ESPECIALLY like, it is a brochure with all the independent QUILT SHOPS in Nebraska! I better keep that one handy in my purse! Here is a photo of all the items in Julia's package.
