A few of my Neighbors...

These guys live across the street from the Alpacas (below)

I love these goats,,,,so cute & playful!

I love driving home & seeing my "neighbors" out & about....seeing them takes the 'stress' out of a stressful day...I know I must grin from ear to ear everytime I drive by them. (click on the pic to get a closer look)

Finished a few more projects...

Re-purposed apron from a bed sheet, lace & table cloth.

Re-purposed apron from vintage napkins, doilies, jewelery & table cloth.

Crochet Wine Bottle Sweater. This took me just short of an hour to crochet.

Vintage flour sack cloth stitchery....typical of the Monday-Sunday motifs.

A wonderful example of clean needle work. The back looks like a mirror image of the front.

Ok, as if I don't have enough un-finished projects on my sewing table...but I did manage to get a few more completed plus acquired some more vintage linens to add to my collection... Rainy days get me so motivated to sew...don't know why, just does.

I Remember the Oscar Meyer Mobile!!!

Oh I wish I were an Oscar Meyer Wiener...

That is what I always want to be...

For if I were an Oscar Meyer Wiener, everyone would be in love with me!

(alt.verse: there would nothing left of me!) lol!!!

Gary & I had to run over to the "Home (Depot)Desprate" store to pick up some wood & stuff (for the trailer) so we decided to pop over to McDonalds for a quick fast food fix....

As we pulled in to the parking lot this is what we saw....so needless to say, like a couple of 9-years olds we looked both ways and then dashed across the street...

Oh My Stars! the Oscar Meyer Wiener Mobile! It was such a delight to see it....who would have thought it would be up here in Spokane, between McDonald's & the Safeway market in what is called "5-Miles" here in Spokane!....

Ok, so it felt good to be a kid again, even if just for a few minutes.

And now we two kids are heading out to the "Man Cave" to work on our (mine-hee hee hee) vintage trailer.

One of My Woolly Neighbors....

Daddy Bull

Father & Son

The cute little escape artist!

Wahoooo! It's official! I am a true blue "Cattle Wrangler"....well sort of,,,,, if you count slamming on my brakes, throwing the Jeep in reverse and into a farmers driveway,,,looking for someone to let them know that one of their woolly baby bull is out walking around in the road....

Turns out someone at the Ranch didn't turn the electric fence on when they let the cattle out to pasture & "baby" discovered & made a break for Freedom! lol!

I didn't want the baby to wonder out in the road & get hit by a car or worse yet wonder over to the other pasture,,,where I have seen coyotes. That sweet little thing wouldn't stand a chance.

Anyways, baby is now back with the herd and the fence is hot,,,so baby won't be getting a taste of freedom for awhile!.

He is cute as a bug don't ya think?

UFO's and More Fun Projects.

This is a sweet "Tea Pot" motif apron with stringed beads on the pocket.

And of course, everyone needs a Krazy Kat apron...lol!

Peekie wonders,,, "Do these linens make my butt look big?"

Dolly~girl over seeing some of my linens.

Dolly~girl inspecting my travele case where I store some of my linens.

Ok, I am finally getting caught up on some of my UFO's....

I can (almost) see my sewing table again! lol!
I finished 2 half aprons, 3 pot holders and a decorative pillow.
But now my schedule is starting to get busy,,,between work, commitments and being a wife & mom to a passel of 4-legged Furballs, I sometimes find it hard to stay on top of my sewing projects. And as if I don't have enough projects unfinished, I started yet another one, an afghan for the guest room.
I have also started on another apron made from vintage linens. It's laid out & pinned but I need to make a trip into town to purchase the fabric for the waistband and ties.
This Friday night I am meeting up with a gal-pal for a quick dinner over at a really cute cafe called "CHAPs" over in Cheney and then we are off to another friends home for a Farm Girl get-together....which means, food, wine & gabfest! Wohoo! is it Friday yet?
