What a gorgeous quilt!!!

 Isn't this quilt just amazing?  It belongs to my friend Ruth, who I am housesitting for and was made by her grandmother.


This entire quilt is all handmade, no machine girls.
The birds are all different and it is all crosstitched embroidered.

The hand quilting is just wonderful.  I would love to be able to do this great someday.

                       

I love all the different detail in each area of the quilt she did a different hand quilt pattern.  Just beautiful.

End of another House and Pet Sitting trip

 I have been housestitting and Pet sitting again at my Pastors house for 10 days.  Pastor Kevin and his wife Ruth along with 17 other members of our church went to Mexico on a mission to help the chursh down there and they will all be back tomorrow evening.  They just phoned to say they are back in the States and we are all so glad and thankful that they remained safe.  They will stay in Los Angeles tonight .

 This is Dottie (left) and Skipper.
They are great little dogs except when Skipper jumps the fence to explore the neighborhood.  They are keeping me warm at night as they both want on the bed with me so I get one on each side.  These little guys have a way of crowding in on you when your sleeping but I just love them.

This was looking up the hill while it was snowing earlier.  Now the sun is shining but by end of day I am sure we will have more snow.  I just wish the weather would make up its mind!
