This is Chloe! She is about 1 year old and weighs only 6 lbs! She is a love bug and has really found home at mom's! I found her online at a local rescue shelter. These people are a non-profit organization that rescue sweet mis-treated animals like Chloe. She was rescued from a backyard breeder and has been mistreated. I don't think we could have found a better dog for mom, or a better home for Chloe. She is house trained, and most of all, just loves to snuggle! She staked her claim to mom's chair the very first day. That is exactly where she has hoped that she would! Mom just recently had to put to sleep her last puppy, Bubba. He was 14 years old and he was barely breathing when we took him to his final vet visit. If you have ever had to make the choice to put down an animal, you know how heart wrenching it is! Mom lives alone and is 76. I had told her that I did not think she needed another dog, until Bubba was gone and I knew this broke her heart and she needed some company. She was not up to the challenge of a new puppy, so we explored the rescue avenue. Chloe is still a puppy at a year old, but she is settled enough to make a smooth transition. Things are going fabulous! What a happy story. Chloe is just amazing! Oh, mom's next door neighbor gave Chloe this over-sized pink sweater, she loves to wiggle out of it when she goes outside! Guess she isn't that cold!

What is going on here
You might notice that my 2 chairs are now brown, not white. It is because the primer I used is that color and I took advantage of one of the recent beautiful weather days to get that done. So doesn't that just look lovely??! Well, it is a step in the right direction. I plan on testing the paint I will use on one small area on the back of one of these chairs before moving forward with the entire project, maybe I should have done that before??!!
As I filter through the stuff in my room, I wonder what was I thinking when I bought alot of these items??! Most of them, I have no good idea what they are for and the money I spent buying tools to achieve quilting techniques, is simply INSANE! I have to say that the best money I have spent has been on my DVD/video collection of quilting techniques, no regrets in that department!!
Notice that Iris patiently watches over the demolition!

Changes in the seasons
No pictures today........we are having tons and tons of rain today! It makes me so sleepy! It has not let up all day! This weekend we turn the clocks back and the days get much shorter, less sunlight.
The sunlight keeps most of us up and energetic. For me, this time of year, I just go into hibernation! It is a time I like to use to finish some old projects and even start more new ones! I do not have room in my quilting area to sew, so I turned a spare bedroom into a sewing room for the next few projects I will be working on. One is a paper pieced quilt that requires alot of stretching out. I did not want this project all over my kitchen table for as long as it will take! I get a little lazy with my posting too, so please do not forget me, I will be here, just not as much.
