Friday Favorites

Friday favorites was part of a "Blog Game" that I was a part of for a short while....

The owner of the blog posted what the favorite was going to be on Thursday, as a PS and then on Friday you posted your favorite to match hers. IE... favorite quilt block. You could then comment her "Friday Favorite" post with a link to your Friday Favorite post.

Well my Friday favorite host has dropped the post. I actually really enjoyed it so I am going to pick this up in my blogging. Although I am moving this from my "crafting" blog to my "Cancer" Blog.

I am moving it for a few reasons; Since I am going to host it, its not going to be just about crafting. Also I think I have broadened my crafting a bit much with my "Nature" posts ;o) and if I continue on this trend this blog wont have anything to do with crafting. My "cancer" Blog will eventually die off with the cancer if I do not find new things to do with it. Since that blog has been more personal from the start, I think it belongs more on that blog anyhow.

So Join me on my Friday Favorites over on "The Dragon" and see what are my favorites and let me know yours!

Friday favorites wedding ring

Friday favorite assignment is:

"For this week's Friday Favorites, help me to plan this season's projects and post about your favorite quilt block or quilt pattern and be sure to tell why it's your favorite!"

First things first I have never made a quilt so I don't know much about them but I do know what I like.

My personal favorite is the wedding ring. Some would say because I have had so many wedding rings myself... so maybe I feel it symbolizes my life, LOL! HAR HAR um no...

I think its because its not a lot of little boxes to make up one big quilt. It is one big masterpiece! All blocks joining together to make one big unity block.

At one time I was told by a certain quilter that "I don't sew curves" so this pattern was out. They sew curves now.... ;-) and they need new patterns??

How 'bout it Sue? Are you up for it?

Apple sauce

Todays Friday favorite was what is your favorite thing about Autumn.


Mine is getting apples to make applesauce! There is nothing that makes me more ready for fall than to cook up a big pot of applesauce and get it into cans. It makes the house smell all applecinnomy and Yummy!



It also brings back some wonderful memories of my family and the times we have spent harvesting apples just for this purpose! Here is a photo of me with my parents at an orchard. Apples have been a long standing tradition. One that I plan on keeping for a long time!

Friday Favorites

A blog I follow has invited me to participate in their Friday favorites posts.

This is when she posts a favorite something and i respond with a favorite of the same thing.

I thought i would be fun to try out.

This Friday favorite is movies. I have many favorite movies, but my number one that movie I will watch it when every anyone says hey how about this one? It's always a yes, is "The Sound of Music."

Unfortunately it is NOT my husbands favorite so I don't get the opportunity to watch it as frequently as I would like. He will sit though it at Christmas time for me. Kind of a present to me.

So I always think of sprinkled cookies cold milk and song filling the house since my daughter and I know all of the words to all of the songs. Its a happy thing.

Now the hard part... which part? there are so many wonderful songs in this musical. But I think for a kick off of Favorite Fridays there is only one answer.


"My Favorite things"




This is not a clip from the movie but a wonderful sideshow that truly expresses at least to me, how this song make me feel anytime I hear it. My thanks to alantie2009 for putting this together!
