It was a beautiful Fourth of July. I visited the Hawthorn Hollow nature preserve to do some fieldwork for my next newspaper column.
Back home, instead of writing, I mowed the lawn.
We spent the afternoon out on the patio reading. (I am concentrating on the ARCs (advance reader copies) I shipped home from ALA Midwinter in January -- because I've got stacks of new ARCs from ALA Annual!)

In the studio: I've finished the strips of 2" squares that I showed in yesterday's post. Assembling the quilt top is my One Monthly Goal for July. I'll add this post to the OMG linkup here .
Neat quilt. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck on your project.
ReplyDeleteGoing to a nature preserve is a great way to spend a holiday. Your garden is beautiful. Your checkerboard squares are coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you found a great way to spend the holiday. Good luck with your OMG, it's going to be a fun quilt.
ReplyDeleteReading and quilting -- does it get any better than that? Do you write reviews for any of the librarian journals? I can only think of Booklist and School Library Journal now.
