Kaffe's Insomnia Done!!

I finally finished my Kaffe Insomnia quilt! I like it allot! It's quite wild and crazy!! It's a nice sized lap at 62" by 70".



In the Strip Therapy book for quilting with jelly rolls, each pattern also makes a wall hanging or table runner from the leftover scraps from the jelly roll. I finished the small quilt , too.





I like it, too! It was really quick and easy and then you are using up the entire jelly roll with no leftover scraps when done!

Friday was my birthday and my husband took me out to dinner and bought me this beautiful miniature sunflower plant! I just LOVE sunflowers!



And my dearest friend from work makes ceramics and she gave me this awesome hand-made flowerpot with this plant, too.



Isn't it just gorgeous! You can see the cayenne pepper I have to sprinkle on the dirt to keep the squirrels from digging in it!! Those little devils are always digging up the dirt in my potted plants out back on the deck and on the front steps as well. They drive my dog crazy, too, as they like to stretch out and sunbathe on the railing of the deck out back. And Yogi will bark furiously through the window at them... ACK!!
