it's Fri-Yay - Time to pick a Winner

 Happy National Sewing Month!

Thank you Ronald Reagan, in 1982!


I am a lazy Blogger today. 
I put the name in a bowl and will have hubby pick one out.
Going Old School!

Thank for you kind words Bloggy Friends.

And the Winner is.... NANCY!
I'll get her address and send it out.
And for the Kim Diehl Fabric I drew Janet O's name.
The fabric will go in the mail, I have Janet's address already.
As for the Walla Walla Fair Entries
I got a Blue on my Gladiolus

and a Blue on my Quilt
 It was a Blue Ribbon day.
Dear Daughter #2 went to see the Beach Boys!

I didn't go too crazy.
The guys and gals in front of us were dancing and being weird, 
I didn't want to stand up in front 
of the people behind us and be RUDE!
I thought being in the Grandstand would be better than the Chairs in the dirt.
We had a little Fun, Fun Fun!
They had old Videos/pictures from the 1960's when they started the Surfing Craze
Old guys, singing those old songs!

It brought back memories of me watching American Bandstand 
and The Ed Sullivan Show.
I was only four when they started, lol. 
I really wanted my Sister to go with me. 
They were more her era than mine.
She chose not to go and was sick on Wednesday.
She is missing going to the Fair with me.

The Blue Super Moon over the Rodeo Grounds wasn't too Blue.
Still a bit of smoky haze around here from the fires.


Now it's time to get on "Betsy" and quilt my last entry 
for the Walla Walla Valley Quilt Festival later this month.
Deadline is midnight tonight!

Have a Happy Labor Day Weekend.

WOW-WEDNESDAY

 It's Wednesday again. 
Same old Song, huh?
Here are the blocks that I cut out Monday.
They stitch up pretty fast.
6" Sewing Baskets Block
Tiniest hsts ever!

12" Honey Bee

12" Farm to Table Block.

I had a little "Prang" on my home from my
 Sister's house.
In Australia a crash is called a Prang.
I never go to that intersection to turn left there!
Anticipated the light and Bang, took my foot off the brake.
My Malibu needs a face lift, lol
Can't get it in until October 31st, WOW!

It was hard to decide which Gladiolus to enter in the Walla Walla Fair and Frontier Days 
This is my 1st time doing Floriculture.
The coral and purple were too bloomed!
Such pretty flowers, delicate and definitely 
not easy to get to grow straight.

I think I have 2-3 more 12" Blocks to make.
I cut out 3 more big blocks last night
One is a 6" so I can start sashing and 
putting rows together.

The Tractor of course is 
'John Deere' Green!

Rise and Shine Rooster

The cow was 6" in my last Farm Girl Vintage Quilt.
This quilt gets a 12" Milk Cow!
I need to decide which background fabric 
to use for it.

Peas and Carrots is a 6" block,
 lots of flippy squares!

It's Free Day at the Fair. 
Can't wait to see what color Ribbons I get
And to go see the Beach Boys with my Daughter!
Yeehaw!
