    My quiet weekend

    A couple of unexpected rainshowers messed up my plantin' and plowin' plans, so I took to the shop ....I know, tough life huh ? actually I really wanted to get some grass seed in , but with this red clay I gotta break up the ground some first .....clay turns to clumps when it gets wet so that was out of the question

    This one I did for a neighbor ( The young mother and child ) . The grandmother recently passed and they wanted one for the mom ( center ) for Christmas. I actually stack cut this one so they could have a copy as well

    The Shop Widow and I met about 3 1/2 years ago and while we were dating her feline companion of 18 years passed. She found the pic over the weekend and asked if I could do something with it

    I also did some of the cancer ornaments and took a stab at some other Christmas and Halloween things. Not too bad a weekend considering what some folks got to do

    Robert - how sweet of you to be thoughtful enough to make an extra for the lady as well. and I am sure your widow loves her Muffin. you should find a hobby though-- to much time on your hands causes your brain to turn to sawdust lol

      Robert.
      Good job on the family, but I love Muffin! And the choice of a font is perfect.
      Perhaps my judgement is a bit skewed - my elderkat took his final trip yesterday, so I am still a bit misty-eyed.
      I'll bet your SW will love it!

        Oh Sandy, how sad . It's awfully hard when you lose a loved pet and I hope elderkat passed peacefully.

        Those are lovely patterns, Robert. The picture of Muffin reminds me of my dog who used to enjoy sitting on the window. His son was an absolute spitting image and was coincidentally named - Muffin!
