Prairie Flower March - Wood Sorrel




I have secretly been doing a hand applique project by Barbara Brackman - Prairie Flower "A year on the plains". This is my March block, Wood Sorrel. With this one finished I have one more to do and that is June, Wild Cucumber. I have learned a lot doing this project.




A cat picture for you cat lovers. Tinker Belle is scheduled to get spade Monday and I'm really nervous about it. I'm already hurting for her...

Camping, Fishing and Quilting

This is the stream where we camped and fished. It's the KOA in Cherokee NC. Pictures are two days showing my catch. The last day I caught a 23 in Rainbow Trout. How fun.... He'll bake up real nice in my oven. Yum!

I never got my limit (of 10) but the size of some of the fish was great. Enjoy the pictures.







They really do go together.
A small ironing board, small iron and I was all set to do more applique prep. This was set up on my stove/kitchen counter. I did get a bit done when I wasn't fishing :-))))

My New Obsession and a sneak peak





My new obsession is a project called the Roseville Album Quilt done in brights. This is my first block minus the circles which I will add later. I'm loving this applique project. You can see more of everyone participating in a Kim McClean pattern here.

Cat Doll - Soon to be completed. She is so cool.

Our mountain trip starts tomorrow so there will be a week or so before another post.

The Quilted Wedding Quilt, Scrap Christmas Top and Tinker Belle

and of course blogger chooses the order....

A scrappy christmas quilt for a child. No pattern, just a sew as you go quilt. Based on what's on hand at the time.
Tinker Belle just snoozing in a laundry basket of clean whites. Oh to sleep the day away without a care in the world. She is getting so big and becoming more affectionate.
The quilted wedding quilt which came out beautiful....

Another post will follow today.........
