Enjoying the sunshine

It has been especially sunny and warm here. I sleep great with the patio door wide open.

 

Love these glasses we are using here at the rental:

They were made in Italy and are a frosted glass.


I finished this quilt top except for th outer sashing. This photo is cut off - the quilt is 5 columns of 6 rows. It is called Fancy Fox by Elizabeth Hartman. I used six graduated colors of Kona cotton along with Essex yarn dyed linen/cotton in natural. I plan on using flannel for th backing.

So glad you're enjoying your time in Florida. It's a great place to be, isn't it? I love it year 'round, even in the summer, which isn't any worse, and is sometimes even better, than it was in Iowa. I'm happy to be a Floridian!

The fox in glasses speaks to me. Great colors gradation. Did you find the fox flannel at JoAnns? I had an "old" lady neighbor that considered landscaping the use of plastic flamingoes and astroturf!

The fox quilt is very cute! Those glasses sure would be fun to serve iced tea in to my Pink Flamingo Club every month!
