Hello again!

You know, when I started CQing, I had no intentions of making money at it. Hell, I was just happy to have a hobby that could hold my interest for more than a week. However, I have decided to try and make a little cash on the side doing something that I love. So, my neighbor saw my checkbook cover, fell in love, and requested one for herself. I tried to just give it to her, and she wouldn't take it without paying me for it. I know, it sounds like I'm complaining.....

Anyway, she requested one in an Irish theme, and here's the result:


She loves it! In fact, she's peddling them all over town now. Every time she writes a check she tries to sell one! HA! Who knows, maybe I can at least make enough money to pay for some of my fabric! I did get an "order", but not for anything CQed. Someone ordered a crib set! A quilt, sheet, pillow and bumper. Works for me, especially since they told me to take all the time I need, the baby isn't due until later this year. That's a good thing, I can work on it in the evenings when the sun goes down.

Have a super Sunday!

Blooms, Blooms, Everywhere Blooms!

Good morning!

I have been busier than busy for the past month, and well....that leaves no time for emailing or blogging. But, this morning, it's storming so I decided to catch up on a few things. Probably shouldn't be on the computer, but I'm risking it! HA!

First off, as promised, here's the picture of Swiffer. I know, a little late. He's such a character. Here he was watching the neighbors dogs through the privacy fence.

Next is another critter picture. I have had a herd of Goldfinches all spring, and I am assuming that they are nesting nearby, since this one felt the need to hang on the dandelions and pull the fuzz out of them. Oh, yeah, IN MY FLOWER BED. Sheesh...now I know how they are getting there. I have been trying like heck to stay on top of the weed this year, but I tell you, when Mother Nature works against me like this, it sure makes my job difficult.
The rest of the photos are of my spring bloomers. I love my tulips, they sure brighten my day!
