Yesterday was a perfect day for playing in the pool...or at least Jordyn thought so! I have been playing catch up all week since Rogue Camp, so today was a great day to wander around outside and enjoy the afternoon. The end of Rogue Camp usually signals the end of summer...when things start to become quiet and slow down. We have less visitors, and the weather begins to cool off a bit with more days of rain. But yesterday was perfect! Not a cloud in the sky. I LOVE living up here, and as my favorite season approaches, i get excited with plans of crafting, quilting, and painting! And speaking of quilting...here are a few photos from this years local quilt and craft show. It was a beautiful exhibit, as always, and i enjoyed the rest of the goodies at the craft fair also. It was scheduled the same weekend of Rogue, but i found a little time to sneak away and check it out :) Besides, i had to buy my chainsaw bear for the house, i buy one every year to represent how many years ive lived up here, and they make a nice addition to the Black Bear Cabin! This years bear is holding a big red heart. Anyways, not too much in the quilting arena right now...im taking a bit of a break before i jump in to the next ALQS swap run by Kate. I rcvd my partners info, and ive picked out a pattern already...what fun! Stay tuned for teasers of my progress!

What, no pic of the chainsaw bears? Or, failing that, some sort of explanation of what a chainsaw bear is? (I'm guessing a bear carved from a log using a chainsaw, but admittedly, I could be way off...)
Summer seems to be drawing to a close here too, although we often get a spell of good weather when the children go back to school in early September - we call it an Indian Summer. Love the informal way the quilts are displayed at the show. Great for disguising imperfect blocks - put the underneath!
