Reminder

If you are a "non-responder or OpenID-er" which to me means I have no way of responding to a comment that you've left, please leave a way for me to get in touch with you, especially if you're participating in a blog give-away or if you are asking for information or links.
By leaving your email within your comment, I can find you. I realize that this is sometimes a scary thing to do with scams and all but if you disguise the email as say.....
me at yahoo dot com
this is the perfect way to hide from the unwanted eye. So please help me out if you are one of the non-responders.
Thank you, in advance.....Ravelly Rhonda!!

Texas Wildlife - Adventure Awaits!






This year's TDA quilt block competition was eagerly awaited.  Several of my girlfriends and I have participated in years past.  This is the state of Texas Department of Agriculture's endeavor to involve quilting in depicting the varied aspects of Texas life, then and now.  This year's theme is about "wildlife," something I am well acquainted with as most of you know.
I chose the "bigmouth bass" and his habitat.  Also, my brother and I use to go fishing all the time when we were youngsters.  Mom never worried about where we were or if we were alright. We carried our German Shepard with us and my brother always had granddad's shotgun (some of you are familiar with it....right).  We'd spend hours sitting at the lake casting our lines, hooks wriggling with worms, watching snapping turtles sunning themselves as cottonmouth water moccasins slithered through the water.
