The HUGE noise you heard at 4:30 was me!!I finished quilting my Bear Paw Quilt. I enjoy hand quilting, but am always glad when it's finished. I still need to bind it---maybe I'll get started on it tomorrow.

Hi all,
I just got back from the road to california show. It was great. I was lucky and got into eleanor's Class. What an experience that was. As usual Spent too much but what a selection to pick from.

2. Start quilting Charms on Point
3. Make 3 hanging kitchen towels (DONE)
4. Applique one SunBonnet SueBelle (working on)
5. Finish Appliqueing Evening Blooms (DONE)
6. Start sewing 3-D Pinwheels (7 out of 15 done)
7. Make Martha Washington block (DONE)

10. Finish Appliqueing Boston Terrier (DONE)

I started a pink D9P (friend's BD in June) before we left last Wednesday as it's practically mindless (unless you 'want' to think) so I have that to work on now, too. But, not much sewing will be getting done for a few days as I haven't even unzipped my suitcase since arriving back home around 2:30 yesterday morning....just can't seem to keep my eyes open.

I'm pleased with how making a monthly list is working for me. I can see the closer a quilt gets to completion, the less I work on it! Maybe because it isn't so easy to handle???? That's something I'll have to work on.
