Plugging Along

I quilted my Valentine wall hanging and all I have is the binding left. I fired up my HQ16 and totally forgot how to use it!!!  So, this project took a bit longer than I'd hoped. I wish I'd turned some of the fabrics around, but I did think to put February 14 in the middle!!! Candy hearts are on the back. I did not get these fabrics at a LQS -- bought them before I became a fabric snob.


Also, finished my owl tooth fairy pillow and put it in the mail...darn, no pic first. 

I also did one row on A Modern Twist...not much, but it's moved forward in its completion. 

I did a Dear Jane block, A-6 Uncle Homer. It was pretty easy and only took a little over a half hour, but I had to rip out two seams and should have gone more quickly. 



In between seams, I did half a dozen flying geese for Easy Street. I think I may have to give it it's own 15 minutes because I have a ton to make. LOL


Still haven't decided about my sewing machine, words of wisdom?

Online Quilt Festival - Spring 2009

What a great idea to host an online Quilt Festival ! Thanks to Amy @ Park City Girl! Be sure to stop by and add your favorite quilt! Well, I really want to join in this huge event, so I'm hoping that an almost completed quilt will qualify! I've chosen my Hungry Caterpillar quilt as my favorite because it is my best to date and who doesn't want to show their best? Of course, I have a long way to go, but I'm learning with each and every quilt. This quilt's story goes like this...it was a kit! I'm not ready to chose my own fabrics/colors just yet (may never be!). I got the kit and went to work trying to hit the one-year old granddaughter's birthday (missed it, of course). I simply loved its simplicity since it was panels that I just put together, but it was a good ego boost for this quilting novice, not to mention the practice I'd gotten! So, I loaded on my new HQ16 with the ProStitcher and it sat until I found a digital pattern to go with it. Once again, I...

Finished Clue 2

Here's Clue #2 of the mystery quilt on the Facebook group. I'm working on a bunch of other projects and will share as I get my act together. LOL

Making Some Headway

Wow, finally got all the Kids Will Be Kids blocks put together!!! On to the borders next! I can't wait to get it on the HQ! I worked on my January calendar and still need a few more days. Can't decide which fabric to add. I was trying to use just what I finished, but I think I'll just use some from current projects because I can't get enough done in one month. :) I also worked on my Double Delight a bit tonight, but I'm having trouble getting my on-point squares to not shift when sewing. I need to get those pins Bonnie talks about in her video on her Quiltville site. That's it for Sunday. Gloria
