Pin It Wednesday

I spent the day at LSU with a group of students who were learning biology and physics.  They are in a CART classroom and today was CART day.  Now, don't ask too many questions about CART, I really don't know much about it except that it is a new teacher program.  College students earn their degrees and the CART program puts them into classrooms so that they can get some added training specific to teaching.  

So anyway, here are a few LSU themed pins for the fans who love some purple and gold!

And there are so many more pins than these little piddling ones.  But it's late and I'm done.  I'll close with the LSU memory quilt that I made for a customer who had a friend graduating. It's made from the tee shirts she wore while at LSU for four years.

The quilt story is here.

Sunday Quilt Inspiration: cute kids

Oh the cutie pies in this post!  My original attempt was to pair up the kid with a quilt based on their expression, clothes, or props, but alas, it's ending up all rather random.  Apologies.

Don't you just want to go make a darling baby quilt?  I'll join you as soon as I'm done lovin' on my grandbabies!

Goats, Grandchildren and Grades

How fun is this picture?  Richard was moving animals around because, well, sometimes he just has to do that sort of thing.  So after moving the momma goat to a new pasture, he caught the baby and brought her in so I could see her.  

She is pretty cute.  She's dark brown with a couple of white spots and some black spots that even everything out.  The little granddaughters have named her Disney--guess where they have all been recently.

She is also very curious and inventive.  She decided to check out Casey (Dusti's horse) and jumped into an empty trough to get closer.  They must have decided to get along, because after smelling on each other for a while, Casey just stood there and let Disney hop and jump and make a general fool of herself trying to reach up high enough to get a better look.

Already our days are hitting 90 degrees, so it's getting difficult to do anything outside.  I've had too much sewing and grading to do anyway.  Since school starts back on Monday, I'm spending more time grading than sewing.  We have only a few weeks of school left including EOC testing.  We're ready, but you can wish us luck anyway.

Pin It Wednesday # 62

Geez, it seems that the Pin It Wednesday numbers are advancing quickly!  We're well into a second year of this fun.  Hard to believe.

I've been pinning a few other things besides quilts.   I know, right?  I have to remind myself that there are other things in life besides quilts.  Crosses, for example.

And cameos.

And crowns.

And lastly, something funny to read.  Enjoy.

Happy Pinning,
Mary
