Star Crazy

My lovely kitty Tinker Belle making sure the quilt blocks are ok. She will re-arrange them if she is in the mood.

The stack of quilt tops are growing. I just can 't stop creating.

Soon I'll need to quilt some up.

Cheers

Some pretty flowers from my garden to help cheer me up. I had sinus surgery on Tuesday and I'm better today. Hopefully everyday will get a little better.

The white flower was a secret sister gift I planted last year.

The yellow day lily was one that used to be a potted plant.































Quilty stuff to follow this weekend "I hope".

P.S. While I am recovering, the bathroom is being "totally" remodeled.

Another Love Quilt Top

Lately I've been "trying" to bust the scraps laying around. The more I do the more I have. I did get rid of the pile of center starters and came up with this top. The yellow looks better in person. I know someone will love this quilt when finished.




















I'll be posting two finished Roseville Album big blocks this weekend. I just need to wash and iron them.

A Star Is Born



Working from scraps I made these star blocks. They weren't exactly square so I knew they would need something else...

This is what was born...

A frog on my porch, too cute not to take a picture.

And last but not least a pretty flower from my trip to California.

I started another scrap quilt yesterday and it's going pretty fast.

MIA Idaho




Did anyone miss me? I've been in Boise Idaho for a work conference. I had terrific accommodations staying at a hotel named The Grove. Very comfy.

Here are some pictures of the walkway along the green river which is very swollen due to all the rain this spring. And speaking of spring, Boise was bursting with flowers and greenery.

Glad to be home and promise to have quilty content on the next post.

Epworth Quilt


Yesterday I quilted another top destined for a graduating Epworth student.

Pieced by Margaret.

I did free hand swirls of different sizes.







I also continued on another top I have been piddling with. Maybe I'll get it sewed up today.
