Happy Birthday Catherine!

Quote:What a lovely idea to take some time off at home to be 'you' and with your animals.
And a few new trees for your birthday is a lovely present! I bet the Japanese Maple is already beautiful, and will be super for the birds when it grows taller.

I thought about what I really wanted and this is it. I lead an active and sometimes exciting life. Toronto is high paced. Just letting things go and slowing down long enough to watch the birds is a real treat.
The Maples do look nice already. I need to do some more cleanup in the area around them. The actual path has shifted and I will put down red cedar mulch to mark it. It is not a big space, but it is full of life and colour.

If it rains, I will come in and spend time sorting through my quilting fabrics. I want to get the pieces together so I can actually start working on a quilt. I have been collecting for years with quilts in mind. I see something and I know it will match so I get a piece. Now I need to organize enough so that I can do something creative.
I have some nice pieces to use as quilt backing. I have a whole bolt of pleasant, but simple material, golden brown with leaves on it, that would work for several quilts that I have in mind.

I am having fun!
