neat chap

This beautiful chap is an adoptee from the local pound.
He is part Weimaraner, and a couple of other breeds. He was very good at posing on his owners' command.  Do you remember the man who owned Weimaraners and had a fetish for fashion and dressed his two dogs accordingly. There were even calendars featuring the model dogs. The normal colour for a Weimanae is gray, at least the ones I have seen. I always thought the poor dogs that were all dressed up we very embarrassed by the clothing. However I think animals at the fair who give birth in front of large crowds are also embarrassed. Anyway I really liked this dog and his owner.

This is a simple little quilt tutorial. It could be used for a summer quilt.  A summer quilt is on that has no batting, just a top and a backing then either tied together or lightly quilted. They were used extensively in the deep south on the plantations.

For the embroiderers on this blog Mary Jane has written a bit on needles and the correct use of them. She shows how you choose the size of your needle to fit the type of the fabric you are using. Good stuff to know as many problems in sewing are related to the size of the needle  and to the sharpness. This site is sent out every day and she has lots to say about good machine embroidery, plus there are at least 6 vendors each day so you can shop if you want.  I enjoy this site.  And you can sign up for it if you wish.
Do you have a list of your medications set up in your computer for when you got to any medical facility ? I do and when they ask me what medications I am using they I just give them  my list, they are very happy. If there are changes to the meds I can just do the adjustment on the computer before I print about 4 copies and slide them into a plastice sleeve.  Mostly I am not that organized so this surprises me LOL.

AND the best news is TADA Mary's baby is a girl. Not to be born until December though. Congratulations Mary and Albert.

People don't notice whether it's winter or summer when they are happy.
