sleepy saturday..

its dreary outside, cool and rainy, i am the only one in the house not sleeping. i have 3 pups and 1 kitty in the den here with me and they are all cuddled in. the other 2 kitties are in their specials napping spots.
i thought it was time i hung up the fall quilts so i took a few pictures to show you.

 
i did this quilt with brush cottons and a nice larger prim stitch. i love the backing!  
 
i showed this a while ago but wanted to show again. auntie Mary gave this to me, i love everything about it! the colors, the black birds and auntie Mary! 
 
i didn't think i was ever going to get done with this one, all the blanket stitching ect... once i was done i missed having it to work on... 

 
 yesterday i made a Chinese chicken dish from octoberfarms recipes.. yum!! 
 
i love my blue and white from japan.. i don't use it as much as i use too. i found these 2 utensils while getting out the chopsticks, i used the one with the teeth to grate up ginger and garlic, the other is a rice paddle. i did decorate with my blue and white when in japan and used the dishes everyday.  
 
#1 grand babe spent the day with me as he had no school or day care. we had a busy day playing with his uncles old toys and eating chz bread...
 
 Sadie is visiting again and has the right idea!!
 
enjoy your weekend my blogging friends and thanx so much for checking in!!! i just may settle in with a guilt, a fur babe or two on my lap, a cup of tea and catch up with all of you!!   jody

    You've mentioned living in Japan before but I don't remember if you told the circumstances. Was your hubby in the military? How sad he passed at such a young age. You seem to have tremendous strength and thankfully family nearby.
    Hugs :)

  2. I use my ginger grater as a spoon rest! :o) Your Fall quilts are so warm and cozy. I still love plaid homespuns but never use them any more. Although my family room is still plaid. :o)
