Maker's Monday

 Hello friends.

Hope everyone is enjoying their

Summer now.

So a few weeks ago.

I was trying to re-organize

our guest bedroom.

There is a pile of bins and boxes

that were left there by myself

after trying to go through some bins

in the garage that were put in there

from moving everything out of our attic.

Like I said, was trying to organize it all.

Well in one bin, look what I found.

I had hooked this about 10 years ago...

to the best of my ability remembering.

Never finished it though....

so as I say now..it was left to marinate

all these years. LOL

I'm just glad the mice did not get it

in the garage.

Since it was almost coming up to 

Patriotic display season for me...

I decided this needed to be finished.

I hooked one more row for the border.

Chose this blue wool.

Voila

Finally a finished piece.

I have it currently sitting on the table

in our keeping room which has our big tv on it.

It fit perfectly there and when I pass by,

can now see it in all its glory.

In other news,

the birthday party was fun.

They had an Edwardian chair 

to be the birthday boy's throne.

He was dressed in a purple robe and crown.

Each of the attendees stood next to

him and they took our pictures.

The food and desserts were good.

We sat with neighbors and got caught

up with news....gossip.

His 3 boys played guitars and his

one DIL sang a song they wrote just for him.

It was titled "When your 104".

It was a fun song for a 1oo year old.

It will be a short work week for me.

YAY

No plans for July 4th.

Bob will work the store...so we will just

BBQ afterwards.

Pre July 4th Blessings To All!
