This shed that Ron has been working on for a very long time has finally come together. When I say a very long time, that would include the planning stage. Having a plan is an essential element of a successful project... especially important for a "Ron" project. Working out the details is time consuming. One of the criteria for this shed is that it was not to be higher than the fence... you can not stand up straight inside. The shed is for storage, including my gardening tools. My garden space, to be in front of the deck pictured, is going to be much less than I previously had, but my focus is to be more of a kitchen garden with mainly herbs. I told Ron that I needed to add a deck so I could sit and look at my garden, and maybe occasionally share a cup of tea with a friend. I have a lime tree ready to plant... probably in the spot it is sitting right now.
I have not taken very much time for baking recently, but Ron always comes through with an awesome breakfast. Of course I had to pretty up these fluffy wonderful waffles with some blueberry sauce and whipped cream.
On the quilting front I started working on a Bible Sampler quilt. These blocks are 6.5" and were done with paper piecing. Some of the pieces were as small as one of my baby fingernails. I made several blocks before I started looking at how I was going to lay them out. Also, one of the things that drew me to this project was each block had a scripture related to it. The more I considered the layout, the more I realized that the scripture references were going to be completely lost, or at best difficult to identify... a road map would be needed.
That is when I decided not to finish all of the 96 blocks and find a layout that would work with the blocks I had completed. I did finish two additional blocks to finish the layout I came up with.
I am still in progress, but in keeping with a scrappy look I decided these blocks needed an attic window look.
