Welcome to Apes with Tools!


I guess I will jump on the blogging bandwagon and see if I can find enough interesting things in my life that you might enjoy.

Of all the quilts I have made, this is my favorite. This quilt is one that my mother and I made for my oldest son as a wedding gift. This quilt is titled "Lucky Stars 2". The combination of blues, aqua and lime greens was chosen to fit the location of a beach wedding. This is favorite color way. I could and probably will make 2 or 3 quilts with this color scheme. I love it that much.

I told my son if the marriage didn't last a year, I wanted the quilt back. (After all, bachelors live like bears. I didn't want it hiding in a nasty cave in the woods) So anyways...I got the quilt back. I guess that's the best thing about this divorce.

Stay tuned for more quilts and the stories behind them and other crafting goodies. And maybe some pictures of some cute grandkids.
