This quilt was pieced and quilted by Dawn and as you can see it won an award. It certainly deserved it!
After my poor brain had absorbed all it could, I thanked Dawn and headed for Carroll, Iowa, a drive of about 90 miles. Michael and Emmi had gone over earlier today with the motor home and found us a great spot on another lake--Swan Lake State Park. One little dog was sure glad to see me when I got there!
The countryside here is beautiful, fall colors, miles and miles of cornfields--I tried to take photos today, now remember I am driving and this is the best I got. The steeple is on one of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen--very old, small white church.
We went into town to the local Mexican restaurant for dinner--not so great--but I didn't have to cook!

Off for more school tomorrow.
I'm glad you're enjoying your classes. That area looks really pretty, a lot nicer than snow!

Hey Janna.. I came to check out your blog... went back to your first post. You sound just about like us! We are going on 14 years married too.
ReplyDeleteI too take goofy pics of the dogs on the deck, the squirrels on the railings and the birds at the feeders. We live in a log home too, and hubby is always doing projects. Saw the one about the spare tire carrier tha Mike was working on. Guess what my Steveio is working on this week? A spare tire carrier too.. LOL .. He is gonna put ours on the front of the motorhome and add a shiny aluminum continental tire cover! We both have vintage Safari/Monaco motorhomes and do our own repairs. We just got a few more years to go till retirement. 2013.
I am addicted to weaving knitting and spinning as opposed to your quilts, but both are Fiber Arts. Now I will go read more on your blog...
