Marking my quilt

I spent the day at a Sandy's house (a fellow Carolina Lily, and quilt master). We marked my Vintage Valentine for quilting on the border. This was quite complicated as I am doing feathers and hearts that do need to be marked. Picture tomorrow.

We went for a drive last weekend and snapped some pictures of Wisteria

This old building is near our home.

Cranford

I checked out a video from the library called Cranford. The series was a series of stories about 19th century Cheshire. The characters and the scenery was wonderful!! I'm going to buy the video and the Return to Cranford that came out in Dec. I can't wait to see the Return.

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;

And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.

For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.
Robert Frost
