piano etudes

Check this out, it is an amazing  paper pieced piece of art work.
Could you do this, I couldn't but I have an internet friend who did.

 
 
Today we went to Costco- $135 worth of merchandise later, we ate a Costco hotdog , our usual fare at that store. The store was crammed with people, we had never seen it that busy. However we managed to get around and find the items we wanted to buy.  I bought one book Guilty Wives by James Patterson. They had Paris by Edward Rutherford at $22. I called Marg to ask if she wanted to split the cost as we share our books anyway. But I could not get her on the phone. She called when we got home and said she had taken it out of the library. So maybe I'll save my self some money and take it out of the library too. I have to go there anyway to find out how to take out books on my e reader.
We bought some Marie Callander chicken pot pies
 
 
and some individual lasagnas which we had for dinner. The lasagnas were very good. Costco has such good items for sale. We are thinking of going down to Washington state to check out the Costco at Bellingham. I hear the prices are even better there than here.  We'll think about it some more LOL.
We had to go to the bakery for bread and then we came home.
I lay down for a bit because as usual I get tired after we go shopping and walking all over those huge stores.
 
Look at this easy block and enjoy the beautiful colour combinations. I love the way the fabrics are coordinated so well.

Album Road is the name of this block. It is interesting enough to catch my attention. The colour combinations are good too.
 
Aren't these pretty  I think they are mug rugs.
 
Couldn't resist this one but find it hard to believe it is natural and not assisted by a human.
 
 
what a clever way to do a Trip Around the World in a heart shape. It says so much about the quilter or anyone who makes this for somebody they love.
An unusual pairing but very sweet and loving. Love in the animal kingdom is predicated on proximity, not that unusual for humankind as well.
 
Time for me to go folks.
Have a lovely evening.
Good night!
