New beginnings

 This was the message at the meditation session I went to today. So let’s turnover a new leaf. Here are the last quilts that were completed. 

This is a small childs quilt that I created with no pattern.  The quilting is made up, just playing with my machines many features.




A string quilt that I had fun putting together. 



This next quilt is from the book half yard quilts from It’s Sew Emma (Fat Quarter Shop).  I made it fat quarter friendly. The pattern is called The Rose. 



Another pattern from the above mentioned book. The backing is fabulous!



I will be including my cross stitch projects here on the blog. It is another form of needlework that is very soothing!




I’m well on my way to a Red Cross stitch wall. 

I have many more projects in progress. 

Happy New Year!  🐸

UFO Haunting

Have you ever had a UFO that haunted you?  I have one.  It used to stay in the bathroom storage and every time I would go,get batting it would,star,me down... Then it moved to,the long arm table and I saw it everyday....  I'm sick of seeing you!  So I finished it up early this morning at 7am.  By 8am it was finished.  I had to add a backing piece as I had under cut the correct amount, so now add more batting and quilt away.  I am so glad it's done.  It even has the binding stitched and waiting it's turn for hand stitching!!!!  Yay!





While I was on a roll I quilted a baby quilt needed for a coworkers wife due in January.

It also has the binding stitched on.  Lots of hand work for a couple evenings.

I did stitch a little on part 5 of Allietare Mystery.  Almost there!

Quilty Content



I quilted this nine patch and since taking the picture have sewn the binding on.

Another Roseville Album block completed. See the cute owls?






And I had these string blocks just begging to be put in a quilt.


Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
