A new week, one during which I hoped to finish setting up the vegetable garden containers.  Rain is forecast for the entire week!  

We could get up to four more inches of rain.  At that point I am sure some of the streams will be out of their banks.  Some are almost at that point now.

I guess I will have to try and get the containers set up between showers.  That's what I did this past weekend.  The lawn did get mowed and I managed to transplant the flowers into the large containers.

The hostas lining the sidewalk have grown so big that they have covered several of the solar lights.  I need to move them so they can be charged during the day.  I also reorganized and decorated the deck with flowers and the outside rug I had on when I lived and traveled in Duchess.  It will be a nice to sit out and drink my morning coffee.

Between working outside and the two zoom events, I worked on another junk journal.  I'm focusing on 'dreaming' with this junk journal.  Check out these two page spreads...




I love the Ralph Waldo Emerson quote!

Today when I can't work outside (if I can work outside...it's raining right now...remember those April showers that come in May?) I will be quilting the two large collages...one with the houses and one with the fish.  I hope to finish quilting (by sewing machine) both today and then add the binding.

I will also continue to work on another 'Happy Villages' quilt and maybe get a start on a new desert scene quilt...at least get the design done.

Hope you have a great day...

Talk with you tomorrow...
