Today wouldn't have been the day; it was 107* shortly after noon, then rain circled us (actually we only got enough to show tracks in the dust) and cooled the air, for which we were grateful! It is just so sad to see the pastures brown and the grass gnawed to the ground. The heifers here at the barn have not had much grass to eat since May, only hay, and this morning Popa fed a bale to a larger herd. That makes every bale we put up valued.
"It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lam. 3:22,23

Oh, I just love it!
ReplyDeleteI really like this top. Seems like I am drawn to the ones with more vivid colors.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! And wow 107!
ReplyDeleteI mustn't let your last two posts get away without commenting, for these quilts are among my favorites. The one made from homespun plaids and bright colors is awesome...lucky granddaughter! And, the two newly completely ones are equally wonderful. Next winter, when there's a foot of snow covering the ground, a fire burning in the furnace, and you are working at your quilting frames, you will be reminded of the hot, hot summer of 2011.
ReplyDeleteI love this Charlotte. I love the colors. 107 And we thought it was hot. The grass is dying here too..Susie
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt, I am in awe of your talents.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how hot it is there, I do wish you could have more of our rain.
You are a gifted artist Charlotte. This quilt top is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteStill so hot and dry here too. We had great hopes that the tropical storm Don would bring us rain, but it sort of fizzled out.
We must keep praying.
You just keep rolling those quilts out. You are such a hard worker. It is very hot and dry here, too. I hope we get some rain soon.
