I am astonished at all you do. I noticed you talked about the classroom. What do you teach? I'm a retired teacher.
I fell in love with your horses just looking at the photos of them. I live in Kentucky; only in the western part, not in the horse country/Lexington area. Anyone who lives in KY though, has to admire horses. Our state is rich in horse history.
A friend of my husband's breeds and raises mini horses too. I think they're just precious.
I'm just amazed that you can work full time, raise horses that require so much care, and quilt so prolifically! You're an amazing gal!!

Once school starts--I teach 5th grade--the quilting will fall back a bit. The gardening will stop and the horses won't get worked as much. It's hard to fit it all in. At school, I rarely leave my classroom and take a lunch I can eat and still correct papers so I don't have to bring too much home. I'm usually tired in Sept--it's exhasuting to get a new class of angels started with the ground work. :wink:
Truthfully, I can't quilt for too many hours at a time, unless it's raining. My energy gets pent up and I have to go work a horse. When it rains I get a lot more done. Quilting takes place it bits and pieces. It's a great time filler.

BTW, because of you and your floral log cabins, I bought a lot of floral recently from a store closing. You inspired me to do a floral log cabin! I am currently working on a scrappy log cabin!

Now, you are skipping the part where I said, "in their right mind". LMBO
LOL, Now who in their right mind could be mad at you?

These are lovely. I have some floral fabrics I've never been crazy about -- must have gotten them at a good sale -- and now I'm inspired to try something like this. Thanks for sharing these pics.
