Hard to believe June is passing by so quickly!
Forgot to post that on the first was my 8 year anniversary of my business:) WOW!!!! Hope to go a few more:)LOL!
Busy week with lunch bunch, lawyer meeting, realtor meetings, and Clifton quilt Show. Oh and I did quilt:)
The meeting with the lawyer is to set up a trust instead of doing wills... makes the passing on of stuff SO much easier! NO probate for the kids to have to deal with:) Have 3 more appointments before everything is final.
Realtors...oh what fun this adventure has been! We have never bought or sold a house. My in laws gave us our house so this is all new for us! The first realtor was very nice and gave us what we asked for. The second has gone way beyond and did a cost estimate with repairmen on fixing the house and giving us options of fixing or not. Selling empty lot next to it with house or not. Lots of decisions!!! And we learned SO much!!! So we are going with second realtor and selling separately but giving the house buyer the option to purchase first. We did not know that even if the area is designated single family homes a construction company can buy lot and get the permits to build apartments:( So we will do that after the buyer has chosen not to buy lot...then it will be on them that there are apts in our neighborhood and they will be next to them. I don't know if you know but MIL house is right next door to us so we are concerned with who buys it...don't really want to sell and move. we will see where this adventure leads us.....
Okay enough blabbing...on with the pictures!
Ruth Ellen made this quilt specifically for our Show next month.
She made stars but I saw arrows...so everywhere there is a large triangle in the star there will be lines coming out like arrows...remember if you click on the picture it will get bigger so you can see what I am saying.
Lots of filler with a few stars thrown in.
Her backing needed to be longer so she added her leftovers:) I always love that!
My treasures from the quilt show:) The small charm is hand marbled...interesting! I see some hexies:)
Kathy J went to Sewing Basket in Salado and pick these up for me:) Thank you!
Quilt show ribbons:)
There were 70 quilts and some really nice ones!!! Millie may be going there next year:)
Hope everyone has an awesome week! I am done with show quilts so should be getting more done now:)
