August Update

I have always loved the design I used on the green borders of this client's quilt.  It really compliments the fabric.  This was one of last week's quilts and it came out quite nicely.  Some of the other updates/highlights of the week are as follows.
I was asked to be a part of an Artists Open Studio Tour.  It is timed nicely for just after I remodel my studio floor which will involve taking everything out of my studio.  This will be no small venture, I have a lot of stuff!  I might not show before pictures, but I'll post after ones for sure!
 I cooked up a mess of food for a catering gig for a friend that ended up being next weekend.
I went to a fabulous annual event with some dear friends.  It was the Cultiva Benefit Dinner last night, which is a great event for a great cause.  It raises money for the Growing Gardens project in Boulder which supports many wonderful programs but especially dear to my heart is Cultiva.  This program teaches kids how to grow food, be responsible, and give back to the community.  These are great kids!!!!
Today was a "day off" and I waged war on the thistle colony that seems bent on taking over my back yard area.  Which might actually be mine in the near future.  Part of what I thought was my property traded hands a few times and after many years and negotiations, it might become part of Mountainjoy again.  Yeah!!!
Lots of good and busy things are happening around here.  The rest of  August holds:  my Anniversary, making a wedding cake for friend, doing a long arm demonstration, re-doing the studio floors, and a visit from my awesome mother-in-law.  Life is good.
