Out of the Wood Works~

What a summer, that about sum's it up! Just kidding, it has been a life changing one, many things have happened that have reshaped our Family, some good, some not so good.

I ended with us going camping and wood cutting and although we did get one load home, and before I could get any shots of our fun process my Sweetness pinched his pinky finger at the tip and required 18 stitches, at the time it was not guaranteed to work because of the location of the wound. As of today it has healed beautifully and is fully functioning once again! I really missed the back and leg rubs those months during healing!!

Here they are taking out the stitches, total yuck!


This little guy was some color inspiration for a future quilt! There is still a long tale about the camping trip, we ended up having to go back because the kids were out fishing and all so we ended up just camping the rest of the week and taking day drives to different places in the area. One being Jerome, it was a long dirt rode that we weren't aware of but it was fun seeing the little mining town which also brought us to Cottonwood and of course I had my Country Register so pulled it out and got to visit a quilt shop there. Will have to find those pictures.........


Then Donnie became an Explorer with the County, Scottie is one of the Advisers and soon to be taking the job over but they held a competition in Las Vegas and this is just one of the shots from there. They did great! Brought home a few trophies and just had a good time!!
And this little guy became one of three blocks I made for my work apron! Yes, I now am employed at Fiddlesticks Quilt Shop! That has been such a blessing to escape for a few wee hours two days a week! It has also helped my Longarm Business Blossom! It has been a great new experience for me and cant wait to share more about it!!
