Done...

 The second graduation quilt is done.  Luckily we had quite a bit of rain this weekend, which made it easier to stay inside and complete.  Don't get me wrong, I have no problem quilting outside.

It was quite relaxing quilting on the deck last weekend. 

I am very happy with the finished product.  This is the second feather quilt I have made and I enjoy creating them immensely.  It is a challenge.

I really struggled with binding it.  Then I saw this idea on Pinterest and knew it was exactly what this quilt needed.

The gardens are looking fabulous.  My daffodils just finished blooming and the primroses are at their peak.

The black currents are blooming and smell devine.

The red currants don't have quite the same pizzazz.

The apples, cherries, and crabapples are also in full swing. 

I have a fabulous crop of dandelions.  Where others see weeds I see wine.  Normally I get barely 7 cups of petals.  This time I had close to 18. Sorry I forgot to take a picture.

I finally found my husband's pumpkin seeds.  He was ready to plant them last weekend and I couldn't remember where I put them.  Of course he thinks I am sabotaging the great pumpkin competition.

The bears are fishing this summer.  It has been awhile since I have been able to set them anywhere.  We are loving the deck.  We eat alfresco whenever we can.

I hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.
