Photography is one of my vices as well as anything to do with beading and I sometimes dabble in quilting. I abhor violence and believe reconciliation means we have to be able to listen to what others say, consider their words, and then speak.
I had 4 strips of material and made this quilt block. I really love the Japanese themed material as has beautiful detail and color. This is the most complex one I have tried without a pattern to go by.

Tonight I tried a new quilt block. Sew 2 squares together all the way around and then cut it diagonally both ways. It makes 4 blocks of 2 colors. Rotate them to what you like and sew.

I love Carolina Wrens and it was fun tromping thru the snow to capture her perched and fluffed to stay warm on a cold winter day.

Garf was a feral who showed up on the doorstep one winter in the snow. He and another cat were adopted into a home.

“That was her magic—she could still see the sunset, even on the darkest days.” – Atticus
There is much wisdom in that quote and sometimes I manage to capture a sunset worthy of that phrase.

I finished this jelly roll rug! It takes 40 44inch strips of material, two rolls of batting, and almost 1200 yards of thread.

~No It's Not an Amish Taxi!!!~
The Byler Amish, aka Yellow Toppers, are a group found in the Kishacoquillas Valley of PA. Their buggies are indeed yellow on top. There are five other colors, white, black, grey, mustard, mustard brown.

Photographing Killdeer can be great exercise as they are fast and they move a lot.

Photography is a lot more fun when you take a little time to learn how to use manual settings. Moon shots aren't to hard and come out better if you use a tripod.

Grumpus says remember the ferals this season! Encourage folks to spay and neuter. Donate to TNR or volunteer at a local animal shelter.

Another block I completed tonight. I really love the Japanese print in the center as it has so much detail.

My what big talons you have was the thought when I captured this shot of an Osprey. Ospreys are not related to hawks or eagles, they are their own seperate species. Sometimes they are called Fishhawks.

I think the female Red Wing Blackbirds are beautifully patterned in their earthy shades of browns. They don't seem to be as noisy as their male counterparts lol.

I have photographed a dozen different Dragonflies and there must be a zillion more kinds I have not come across.

I am always awed by raptors and this immature Bald Eagle was one of them.

~Cedar Waxwing~

Cedar Waxwings are fun birds to photograph but they tend to move around quite a bit.

The female Cardinals are often prettier than the males, espeically in the snow.

There is something wonderful about the way the air smells and the flowers look after a gentle rain.

This might be one of the best flower photographs I've taken. It was part of a friend's bouqet that set on her desk.

I decide to quilt instead of watching tv or going on social media. I saw this pattern on a Facebook and decided to try it out and made a pot holder. The reel only had 2 of the measurements so I had to figure out the rest after I translated centimeters into inches.
