A New Old Quilt Project

I'm working on a little "new" project that is a vintage quilt block.

Actually it is 4 little blocks together. 

I used the flour sack I shared the other day as the backing!

It is humble but has some sweet fabric pieces.

Love that cheddar!

I'm doing some simple hand quilting. 

Friday night we went to a local winery for my birthday. This view is killer! They had a local band that plays Beatles. It was a lot of fun.

Then the next morning I was up early and on the road to meet my daughter at a trailhead on the Columbia River. It was forecasted to be about 90 degrees that day so we got an early start. 

Wildflowers are at their peak right now. The main ones are balsom root and lupine. 

Hiking along the rim in a "forest" of flowers and oak trees!

One of the best day hikes I've been on! 

6.4 miles with approx 2000' elevation gain. I took it easy on Sunday!

We stopped for a snack on our way down and my daughter had brought wrapped birthday/mother's day gifts! That was fun and she promised to pack them down too!!

I hope you have a wonderful week!
