Blocks make tops

I have had this pile of neutral string blocks and it was time to use them.  I love how this came out.  This will be quilted for a quilty hug.




BTW I order my new quilting machine Saturday.  HQ Fusion 24 with a ten foot table.   Yippee!

Plugging along

Did you miss me? Our friends have been here from Scotland we are having a lovely time. They leave tomorrow.

I have managed a few things.

A quilty hugs quilt which is a collaboration of bigger blocks for the spare parts bag.


The back with a Halloween theme.


I committed to two QOV quilts for a November award.  There is a large group of military members receiving them.


The back.


A Quilty hug top that started with a stack of blue squares.


I am binding this in hopes that a friend will want to purchase it.

A Little Late

I meant to post these earlier in the week but life got in the way. These are the quilty hugs given on Monday and I had my second refusal, but he did not realize I had made what I was giving out. So maybe next time he will get lucky.  I let this one get away before a photo was taken.  It was extra special as a coworkers wife was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.  Her label had her name on it. She absolutely loved it.

Bought a new kitty condo and assembled it. I also took down the old one and saved the jute spindles.
My friend JoAnn made me the cutest doll.
