New Deck The new deck was finished just in time for our QOV sewing. Scott, Mitchell, and Mandy put in a lot of hours, and they did an outstanding job! It's going to be a nice place to take a break from longarming, and enjoy some sunshine. We will close off the underneath to make a garage for my ATV and Scott's mower, along with storage of garden tools, etc. Quilts of Valor Mary Ellen and Mary Jane came by Friday to work on QOVs. We finished 4 quilts, along with enough binding made to make many more. It was a very enjoyable day with lots of chatting and sewing. Since I will not be able to longarm for a few weeks, we still have several sandwiched quilts ready if anyone is interested in helping us out with the quilting. Email me: leann@persimmonquilts.com THANKS! Here's some pictures of some other QOV's that were shipped out this week: Sarah's Ribbons My customer, Sarah won ribbons on all three quilts she entered that were quilted by me. How exciting (for both of us!). She entered the quilts in the Central Oklahoma Quilter's Guild show this past weekend in Oklahoma City. Congrats Sarah! You go, girl!!! I don't have a picture of her 3rd quilt, but will soon. Here's the 2 ribbon winning quilts: Gardening It's a good thing my gardens are doing a good job of taking care of themselves. I have not been able to work in them, but am sure enjoying the pretties.
