I'm waiting for my last fabric (the background one of course) to come out of the dryer so I can start working on the quilt for our bedroom. It's called a tumbling leaves design. I've had the fabrics for a while and I'm trying to work through my piles of stash fabric.

Mellie has been sewing a dress for herself on the treadle. She's got the little cap sleeves and the hem left to do. I figured that since she wants to be using the machine why not have her sew something productive. She's having a great time.

We've got beans in the crockpot for dinner tonight. We were supposed to have them last night but I didn't get them in early enough yesterday. Oh well...

It's turning into a very windy afternoon here. It started out blue and has worked its way around to a fairly constant grey. Maybe we're in for some more rain.

Yesterday the kids and I went and stocked up on bird food and a new finch feeder. Jeff moved the hook I wanted to put it on for me. Already we've had goldfinches by to have a snack. We've had chickadees, tufted titmice, and a few cardinals at my other feeders on the front porch. I love watching them.

I guess that's all for now. I think my dryer's almost done with the fabric I'm waiting on. Have a blessed afternoon,
