Hi Folks,

Hope this finds you all well. I'll get this one started but I'll have to skate in a few. I have a friend coming over. I'll be back later.

I spent the afternoon quilting DH quilt. Whew! ALMOST done with the quilting.

What are you working on this evening???

Hi Mastif and Redtop!!

I'v been working on a Quillow for my grandson for two days. I havn't gotten much done between blowing my nose and feeling sorry for myself.

All I have left is close the opening, sew around the outside,and run a couple of straight quilting lines and I'm done. woo hoo!!

I'm trying to motivate myself to sew the borders on a Yellow Brick Road quilt. This is the first time I've done this pattern and wouldn't you know I messed it up, but I don't think anyone will know...unless of course you're very familiar with the pattern. I'm giving it away to a non-quilter, so she won't know. I hope she likes it. Maybe I'll get it sandwiched this weekend.

Hey everyone!! Just popping in to see who's here and what's going on.
It's almost time to start supper but I'll be back later on this evening. Finally finished the French Rose blocks for the swap. Hopefully get them mailed off to Cindy tomorrow.

Spudgrandma I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I've had a cold for almost 2 weeks...I just can't get rid of it...feeling a lot better but still not 100%.

Redtop...I used to crochet dishrags and sell them at the craft fair. People said they were too nice to use for dishrags and would use them like a doily. Go figure!!

Better go start supper. See y'all later.

Sandy

Hello, I am here and haven't been doing much sewing. i am still working on those placemats-my heart doesn't seem into sewing just yet. However, I put the final three edges on them and I have the material for the backing and batting. Today my son asks me to make a project for an auction to raise money for the local FFA chapter. Son is President of the alumni and they are helping to try this for the first time.

Hi All!

Thanks Caren for starting us!

I'm getting the border finished on my Turning Twenty and trying to stay out of the sale fabrics! LOL Probably will NOT stay out of the sale fabrics.

I have the back ordered for this one and it should be here in just a couple of days so then I can work on quilting it.

Just put a pot of soup on to reheat so supper is covered. Wheeeee!
