Wonderful bedtime stories from Uncle Arthur.

I used to think this kind of jumping was fun!

Ponds, boats, streams, digging, water, and friends make for lots of good fun.

… as a Quilter

Remember the “Christmas Cactus” quilt that I started years ago? I got it back from my longarm quilter, Elmina and added the binding to finish it up.

I think instead of “Christmas Cactus” I'll call my version “Raspberry Cactus.”
I found the pattern in an old “Quiltmaker” magazine. You can purchase the pattern from here.
