15





This was a more productive week in the studio.  I finished the 15 Anti-Ouch Pouches I committed to make for the Quilt Guild in February.  I’ve made so many, they have become a favorite form of mindless sewing.  It takes between 45 minutes and an hour to make each one.  Now I can resume my other projects with a clear conscience.

 


I forgot to include this picture in last week’s post.  It was taken through a window, so is not as sharp as I would like.  The deer population in our community has grown, and this group was outside our fence one afternoon.  You can see ice patches were still on the ground.  The deer in this part of Texas are small, but plentiful.  This weekend we have had temperature highs in the 80s.

that is a lot of deer - we get the small deer here too - sure have seen some big ones out west in the mountains when we have been there.

Your ouch pouches are so nice! That is a lovely photo of the deer. I miss seeing deer, living here in a subdivision. When we lived in south Texas, they would cross our acreage on their way somewhere. I miss that quiet presence.

I'm happy the deer don't come into town. I wouldn't have any Hostas left if they did. 80 sounds really good right now. We only made it to 39 today.
