a new ruler




im not sure if i posted about this little ruler its called corner clipper im trying to get the bindings cut and at least sewn to the quilts that i have finished
its for flying geese but it cuts several sizes strips for invisible seam binding great no markingthis is the binding for my summer in the park dont you love the colors i got it at joanns
perfect right these are 2 1/4  strips

then you end up with all these cute little triangles gets you thinking huh what to do with them
it comes with these simple instructions and of course eileen AKA (pincushion) had to get inthe picture she feels so neglected well i have to get ready for work have a great weekend happy sewing

bubbas b-day

my sweet baby boy turned 4 yrs old yesterday as you can see he always has a smile ad a big wet kiss for me!
 not many people can understand the love between a human and a dog ive been blessed with many such loves  
and left with such unbearable heartache in there ending of life but cant imagine my life without that kind of love or without a dog in it they are always glad to see me even if im only gone to take a shower and never care what my hair looks like or what im wearing ! i thank god for creating dogs everyday 
although sometimes i get a snooty look from the cats i think they judge me and my clothing choices
  have a wonderful day!!
 i am headed to florida on friday to see my grandaughter and grandogs  i cant wait
