Found it! At last..the picture of DGS#3 with his new quilt. The guy next to him is my DS#2, his dad. I love two color quilts,but I'm not fond of making them. This one seemed to be destined. With construction vehicles on that bright green and a soft yellow, I chose a variation on a double 4 patch. Pic was taken in my old one bedroom apt, 2004. I have no plans for leftover blocks.

Judy asked about my little house. So went and found this picture from last summer. Good thing too, because that's where the quilt picture was..*S* They are small side by side town houses Judy. The garages connect and the common wall is the laundry room. They are built 4 square, with two old ladies living on the back side of mine and my neighbor Lucille. Mine is a two bedroom, and the window you see to the right, is the one where I saw the hummingbird this morning. I really like this place. Everything is done to maintain it, snow shoveling, grass,etc. And everything is on one level, with the laundry room(your own furnace and water heater, washer and dryer already provided) that walks out level with the garage. No steps...period! And that works fine for me. Back in 1997 when these Cottages opened, and that's what they are called The Cottages of Spring Valley, everything out here was farm fields.
Now we are a small but growing sub-division. The 16 cottages stay the same, but all around us are new twin homes, both for sale and for rent. The village has extended the village limits out far enough that we are consided "village" and have their water, sewer and plowing services. I looked at one of the twin homes to buy, but 3 bedrooms, split level and $2000. a year in taxes back in 2002, was more than I was willing to take on. All of the twin home have double car garages, while we just have single, but that works fine. I hope I can stay here for the long term. Moving is a real pain, and I've moved twice since 2000. Out of my house, after selling it, and then out of the single bedroom senior apartment. I'd like to stay put!!!!
