Busy Day

I have a busy day, today. I took a 12 mile bike trip on the Little Miami River bike trail http://www.lovelandbiketrail.com/. It was a beautiful morning for a bike ride. Saw a lot of squirrels and a few chipmunks but no deer today. I was curious about wind damage as this trail runs along the river and is heavily wooded. Some trees had come down and branches of trees were snapped off. I took a few pictures so you could see.

After my bike ride, I stopped at the The Quilt Cabin - Home to pick out a fat quarter for my secret stitcher's Christmas ornament. It will be a scissor keep and I needed fabric for the backing and lining. It is the fabric on the far left. It was cheaper if you bought 5 so....... That pink is a wild card isn't it?

I need to stitch for a while on my letter Z for the sampler guild's quilt Queen City Sampler Guild. Thought you might like to see how that is going. This afternoon I am picking up my daughter after work and we are going to Kentucky. Our first stop will be the GAP outlet in Hebron, KY. Then a little something to eat and down the road to a co-workers house for a Stampin' Up 'Stamp a Stack'. We will be making 12 cards at her workshop. She had one in the spring and it was lots of fun. It's nice walking away with 12 cards all made and ready to use.

Now to show you Rich's brand new, just completed garage. It needs a little more dirt around it to level it off with the yard. It is really nice. It has 2 skylights, a garage door opener, and at least one window on each side. We really like it. He's going to paint the floor with an epoxy paint and then we can start putting stuff in it. Lucky we had the trees trimmed beside it before the storm came through.

Thought you'd like to see the cards Dana and I made last night. There were 6 stations set up and we made two of each of these cards. The pop-ups aren't showing up in the picture.
