Just a quick thanks to all of you that made comments. You are so very sweet! I will do better with posting.

Thanks again - see you in cyber space!

Deer Camp Koozies



Here are the koozies I have been working on. On one side it says "Quality Drinkin' Time Sheffield, TX" That's the town that the lease is near. On the other side there is a deer rack and it says "Nothin' But Horns".

The story, as I understand it, is that, one very cold windy hunting day, 3 fearless hunters, Wayne Wells, Wayne Hughes and Brick Sullivan took one of the hunting vehicles (one with a heater) to a favorite hunting spot. They sat quietly, sipping on an icy cold beverage, waiting for "the big one" to show up in the clearing. When suddenly something came into view. Well's drew up the binoculars and one of the other great hunters steadied their gun out the window of the vehicle and whispered, "Whadoyasee, Wells?" To which he replied softly, "Nothin' But Horns, man! Nothin' But Horns!" Well, if you know Wells like I do, then you probably already know that he added something like "Shoot the Bastard!" Any way - that's where that little saying came from. There's probably more to that story than this - but you will have to ask one of the great hunters about it to get the real feeling of being there!

Anyway - on the bottom of each koozie are the initials of each man on the deer lease. That is to keep them from fighting over them! LOL

Need your Opinion



Here are two churn dash for my January retreat Aniversary swap. The center is to be silver or grey - like tin, the background different from the center and the churn dash should represent me. So which is it? The bright one or the dull one?

Fisher House Quilt on the Move



Hey girls! I finally got a border on the Fisher House RWB quilt and will be taking it to Kathy L for quilting on Monday afternoon. Here is a picture of it and a shot of the back I pieced together for it.
