We only found a couple of molly moochers this year. I love them dredged in flour and fried - they are so delicious.Janet,https://www.blogger.com/profile/17796999156668844943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-72323120178935702042015-05-13T00:18:52.772-07:002015-05-13T00:18:52.772-07:00Your rug is so pretty and my goodness you have mad...Your rug is so pretty and my goodness you have made good time with your busy hands!

I love the rug! I would think the stitching involved could be a bit challenging, but you have done a fantastic job. Glad you got the little greenhouse secured. You'll enjoy it. Several years ago I had a greenhouse and loved it; still dream about getting another. I see you have been enjoying your new quilting frame; beautiful stitches! Congratulations on the new Cadillac! It doesn't surprise me that you are a bike enthusiast. Have fun!Hill Top Posthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417478558713036325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-20758867124609912292015-04-24T18:09:10.947-07:002015-04-24T18:09:10.947-07:00My exercise bike in the basement is where I drape ...My exercise bike in the basement is where I drape my fabric when I'm trying to decide what piece to use! Outdoor biking is MUCH better. I have crochet rugs in the past, but I have to be careful because it hurts my wrist with the twisting motion. I'm probably not doing it correctly!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05032170816461645545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-47122132029827625532015-04-24T18:05:54.207-07:002015-04-24T18:05:54.207-07:00I, too, live in the country so I have to drive to ...I, too, live in the country so I have to drive to a local state park with a hiking path to ride. Lucky it's close to home and sometimes my sister goes with me. I am enjoying it, but today I am sore after yesterdays ride. Maybe I got a bit aggressive, oops.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05032170816461645545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-59618962689841087112015-04-24T12:44:25.418-07:002015-04-24T12:44:25.418-07:00You're a busy, busy person!!

Do you ever crochet rugs from strips of fabric?<br />We're too wet here to plant anything too.<br />I've never had a real bike; my husband bought an exercise bike for me; I could ride all day and never get anywhere :)lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-62096607886896387252015-04-24T10:56:46.093-07:002015-04-24T10:56:46.093-07:00You have certainly been a busy gal.

I will be tackling a couple more dollhouse rugs for the second fairy house soon. I did find the braiding hard on my fingers that have arthritis! Maybe I will do some chair pads and place mats. (I'll add that to my list) Cool bicycle. I wish I could find mushrooms, they look so tasty.Sherri Farleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18106796132612922630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432224788349975142.post-87440447409573184382015-04-24T07:16:12.203-07:002015-04-24T07:16:12.203-07:00Cinder, I enjoyed reading your post today and seei...Cinder, I enjoyed reading your post today and seeing all your projects. The wool braided rug is fantastic. You did a great job and I love the colors. So sorry to hear about your greenhouse falling over. I hope that what you have saved will be okay. And I hope the weather will co-operate and let you till your garden. The two pillows are very pretty. Good idea about adding the ticking cloth. And reusing the zipper; you are quite the sewer. Your mushrooms are interesting and I bet they will make for some great soup this winter. We use to ride bikes when we were in Colorado. It is harder here; living in the country with a dirt road. Happy for you to upgrade and hope you get plenty of time to ride. And lastly, your quilt is wonderful too. I like your stitching pattern. Have a great weekend.
