We took out the wall here, and hubby built me a table, awww, isn't he funny.


Beginning a basket for Easter for the kiddos. Aren't they the sweetest. They are from Sewing for Sarah.

Another finished baby quilt. It is another Yellow Brick Road. I decided to do an I Spy quilt, so I bought a bunch of fat quarters and used only 6 inches of each novelty print. So I had tons of fabrid to get rid of. So I cut all of it out in the Yellow Brick Road Pattern. I think I have 3 more to quilt, then, YAHOO on to something new. I bought a cute kit for a halloween quilt. I am dying to get to it.

The Backing, isn't it the cutest!!!!!!! AND it was half price.

What a mess!

Here's a couple of bears on there way to some cute kiddo's. They are wrapped in the little doll quilts that I am practing my stitches on.

What a mess. Why is there so many feet and pins, etc. needed to quilt one quilt. Whew!

this is now my favorite meal. You can see the chickens, they melted under the veggies. Not to pretty, but oh so moist. 2 seasoned chickens, season, one big bag of choice of veggies, 1 bag chopped onions. Basil on top. Cook for 3 hours. Serve on toasted bread. Mmmm

Clean Up on Isle 3

Ahhhhhhh, don't you hate when that happens. Sheeze, whatever should I do.

Oh yeah, that's what they are good for. Aren't they the cutest vaccum cleaners ever!!!

The Blonde one is my really old dog, if she sees there is a plate on the cabinet with scraps, she wheezes and pants until we give up and give it to her.

Boy it is impossible to take a good pic in the house isn't it. Much too wet to hang it on the fence outside. I have a few more finishes to post pics of tomorrow. I always finish a bunch at the beginning of the year and again at the end, with cold weather, no yard work to do.

Now that's a quilt

A group project making a quilt for my sister.

More finishes

A couple of more finishes. I always stitch in the ditch, but am trying to learn repeating patterns over the quilt, since it makes a quilt last longer. A friend who teaches free motion quilting checked my quilt once I was finished, and she was very happy with the results. She told me about using a fancy stitch for the binding, so I tried it, now it took about 30 minutes to make it around the quilt, but it is cute. I think this might go to a cute little girl.

This is a Crumb Quilt, from Quiltville. Now, I do use much bigger fabric pieces then she does. She is just so patient. I'M NOT. But, I am happy with this quilt. I also did a repeating pattern all the way across it. It is going to a friend who rescued us from the hurricane. I think she needs a medal, but I think she will be happy with the quilt. The poor woman had 7 people, 11 dogs, 3 cats, and a rat camped out in her house.

I hardly ever keep a quilt, this one is MINE. I embroidered the little dolls, and it is sampler blocks in 30's fabric. It is queen size. The girls gave me fabric for my birthday, only if I promised to keep the quilt for myself. Not a problem. It is just so much brighter then the pics show.
