'Tis a reason to celebrate--stash reduction!!  I finished the pink Log Cabin ("I'm In Love!") quilt on Sunday and made the backing on Monday...and I'm still in love.   The colors in the first picture are true; the colors in the second picture have a yellow tint.  I'll be glad when I can have DH take the pictures outside on the porch again.

The forest floor is showing, more so every passing day.  Mr. Moose has been visiting.  We think he is in his second year rather than a yearling, and he has no fear which may not serve him well.  He was eating pussy willows in a neighbor's yard on Friday, and we sat and watched him from the Jeep for about 30 minutes.  Then he came to visit in our yard on Saturday evening about dusk.  We had just returned from attending Mass when he ambled up--looked at us as we were standing by the vehicles and then passed within 10 feet of us as he made his way to the back yard.  He feasted on the pussy willow first, progressed to the serviceberry bush, and then munched on the small spruce.  And that was it--DH made enough noise to move him away--that happened to be one of the few spruce trees we have planted that the deer haven't reshaped!  He has been back several times; he likes laying in the back yard and surveying the world through the trees.
