Today is, well...busy. Mark and Steven are in Oceanside helping a friend on his house. I am on my 3rd load of laundry, 2 more to go. Dishwashers going, working on my quilt from last night at Quilters Cottage. (Not the one shown). Changed the sheets, flipped the mattress (haven't done that in a while) I still have to get outside and do my yard work. (next door's also!) It's a rental and I keep it up for the owner. And then I decided to post on my blog. Whew! Finished the quilt up in the picture about a week ago. Got the idea from a little, little picture I saw in a magazine. Found the block directions and made my own quilt up. LOVE IT! It looks so old fashioned. The blue green material is from American Jane. Bought some, not enough, the Cottage ran out and it took me like 4 months to find more to finish the quilt.
Off to do yards now!

Saturday drive....
Started the day with the hubby going to the Ramona Quilt Show. Small show, but it was hoppin' with peoples.. Lots of ideas. Cute quilts.
Then we went on ahead to Julian. (The one picture is the little Julian jail.)It was apple pickin' season, we didn't stop for those we parked and went shopping. TONS of people had the same idea! The line to get a fresh pie was unbeleivable. Like a block long. If I liked pies, I would have waited.
All I wanted to do was pick out a pumpkin! I figured since it was the time of year, surely someone would have some. Nope! had to go ALL the way back to Ramona. Stopped at the one place we passed earlier in the day and got one. They also had a GIANT corn maze.I didn't do it, I'm too cheap! Kids were having fun though.

Fall...
Here are a couple of new things I just finished. My girlfriend Marian created this idea for a table runner. She did the middle part of the pumpkins and I did the borders and the stitching on it. Cute, cute, cute!
The quilt was one I had did on our weekend retreat from the cottage last month. Just finished quilting it last week or so.
