Friday check in: a note before leaving



State park, Wednesday:  bumblebee on clover, coreopsis, spiderwort.  ("Wort" means a plant with medicinal properties. I don't know what this one does for humans, or for spiders....)





Thursday:  the Clara Cummings Book Club members were tapping their toes and clapping as presenter Susan Benjamin told us about the life and career of Neil Diamond.  And with that entertaining program the CCBC season has concluded.  Next luncheon is in September and I have the speaker lined up.

In the studio:    RBW Stars #2 is a flimsy.   6 yards in all.












No sewing this weekend.  I'm headed for the P.E.O. state convention in Springfield.  

Just call me Elsbeth . . .

  5. Have fun at the PEO convention!! The red/white/black quilt really did turn out great, and used up a lot of parts and pieces.
