Fencing and fingers

Spring has definitely arrived in Southern Saskatchewan!

This is the reason they call it the" Land of the Living Skies"


I have tried to make it to my sewing room every day this week
but
the crew and I were summoned to do some fencing all week

Helper #1

 Dawson played out after day 3....


These three were useless...


All they did was hold down the tools in the quad...

Justin managed to keep all his fingers in tack this round!!


Unlike in November,
when we tried to do this fence!!


 I look forward to not dealing with barb wire for a while now!


At least the weather was nice 
and
 the skies were gorgeous!


We have all the preworking done...

Only stuck once....


Had to get the big guns over to help!

Some farmers have had to burn their 2019 crops
 that have laid in the field all winter
to get ready to seed


Here's hoping for a better harvest this year!

Justin has been sneaking in small rides on his new horse, Flash.


It's officially Spring,
 when you find new baby kitties...


As far as quilting....

I saw this picture of a chicken 
and
I just had to do it.


I enlarged him to the size I wanted...



I have some Eclectic Elements fabric
 by Tim Holts
 I will use for his feathers


This is only as far as I have gotten...


Masks have still been requested 
so
Lucy has been supervising that activity!


Thank you to Chantel and Anita Brown for the awesome trade
of
Hillberg and Berk earrings


for some masks!!


Not necessary but much appreciated!
