Holding my attention this week is...
A robin family that is living in the apple tree right outside my window.
The little robins hatched sometime this weekend. I'm not sure how many babies there are, but Mr. and Mrs. Robin are very good parents. Doesn't she look cozy sitting in her nest guarding her little family? Every so often Mr. Robin shows up and spells her for a bit. This morning both parents were busy feeding the newest members of the Robin family. This, by the way, is the same apple tree that the bears visit in the fall. The tree should probably listed as a sanctuary for wildlife or something like that.
Nobody can create quite like Mother Nature. These are just ordinary petunias. When you really look at them you notice that they are absolutely stunning.
A rockin' redo on an old piece of furniture.
Round one of painting is done. I'm sure there will be a big reveal when the project is finished.
In all the craziness and busyness that is summer, I still find a minute to stitch now and again. I sneak in to my craft room and get my stitch fix when Mr. Handsome is watching his beloved Dodgers on my computer.
This Zippy Wallet is stitched out of Anna Maria's Garden Party fabric. I think this fabric is perfectly named. Don't you? And the match up with Sandi's red Stripey is divine. I love it when that happens.
Toodles,
Cassie

I'm back. I'm so sorry for asking you for your pattern (don't know what I was thinking). I really like the zipper wallet and did not see any on your etsy site. I will watch your site to purchase. Again, I just got carried away.
