Quilty Day

I have the day off today, so I've spent a good part of the day working on finishing up some quilt projects. I pieced the border on my butterfly quilt and put the back together. Gonna call the quilt lady today to see if she can get me in soon. I also quilted the tablerunner for my mom. I started to do some free motion stuff last night and realized I wasn't ready for that. I did stitch in the ditch on it and will had quilt the x-mas trees on it. The binding is all pieced and ironed. This afternoon I'm going to get that done. Hopefully tonight I will get a picture up of it. I'm super excited to get it done.

My husband's sisters family came over this morning to feed the horses and cows. I didn't even know they had gone out back, but everything went well. The kids were super excited to tell me about feeding them. They still aren't ready to meet the dogs, but I can understand that. The dogs like to bark at strangers and they are bigger than both of the kids. Maybe next year they will be ready for that. Its nice that my niece isn't afraid of the horses anymore. Two years ago she screamed when she saw the horses; last year she would give me the grass to feed them; so this year she is actually feeding them. I'm very proud of her and glad that she is growning out of being scared of animals. She is only three, so in another year she should be good to go.

More to follow...
