Hodgepodge Patchwork Tuesday --- Our Anniversary, an Aloe Plant, a Denim Coaster, and One Lovely Violet!

September 19th 1992 --- Our Wedding Day!


And here we are 19 years later - September 2011. I cropped us out of our family picture and I can't make it larger or it gets blurry! I think we look pretty good!  Maybe, because we are happy! We celebrated our anniversary tonight by going out for Taco Tuesday.  So many changes in 19 years, but I would have to say all in all, they are good changes...


I love taking photos of quilts, plants, and people. When I view them later, I see the changes... 

In June, I took some photos of my large denim coaster with my aloe plant for my second blog --- a blog devoted to a collection of photos of all my sewing and quilting projects from the past 40 years.  The denim coaster was a fun little quilt to make!





Today, September 20th, I took more photos... I was amazed to see how much the aloe plant had grown and taken over the whole coffee table.  WOW!
Also at the end of June a friend shared this beautiful violet plant with me.  There were no blooms in June!  Look at them now!






I do not think of myself as having a green thumb, but I must be doing something right! 

 I love the green of the aloe against the denim blues...



By taking pictures of things over the years, I see the changes... changes in my quilting, in my plants, and in the people in my life... 


Some changes in life are good... Enjoy the good ones!

Enjoy your day!
