 This is a nice row quilt. You can get to the patterns by clicking on the right side where the picture of it is. If you enjoy making row quilts this is a pretty one.

After going to the grocery store for our next week's food, we came home and picked up Marg to go to the Starlight Casino. It was fun and Ray won $950 which made it even more fun LOL. The lady sitting next to him ran over to me and said you just have to come and see what your husband did. She was so excited Haha. And Ray being the generous guy he is gave me $400. I'm happy, I'll just add it to my collection haha. Some people collect things I collect
money. Haha.


And that is all we did today. Game over!!
Speaking of games we are watching the Stanley Cup finals, so far its devils 2 and Kings 1. I was hoping the Kings would win . But The New Jersey Devils goalie Martin Brodeur is amazing. He is 40 years old and that is old in the game of  hockey  and he can stop almost anything that comes his way.  That is his French Canadian heritage I guess. So many great hockey players have come out of Quebec.
Brodeur's playing card.
Prince Philip came home from the hospital today and will celebrate his 91st birthday tomorrow. Long life and mostly great health is his blessing as well as a loving wife. I tell Ray he is fortunate that he has a good wife LOL, he never disagrees with me. Love is like that.

Lovely picture!!

And so is this one. I really like this picture of Jim.

Coffee in the morning makes you feel like these two little guys. So be sure and have a cup of coffee in the morning. Tea in the afternoon and water the rest of the day. My prescription for a great day!! Oh and be sure to eat.

 
Looks like the Rangers have won it, 8 seconds to go and the score is still the same 2 to 1. Face off coming up.
Devils win, game over!
We've got a series as the announcer said.
This is such a great quilt, I hope I haven't shown it before. Look at the rocks , how can a quilter do such a great pice of work. I guess it has to be drafted out first. Well of course it does.

Last but not least- Country Roads . I found it in
About Quilting.com They have lots of blocks on that site.


Time for me to go. Have a lovely evening!
Bon Soir.
