The Beauty of Friendship

No words can express what this quilt means to me, made by a dear friend named Helen Marie in Pa. and quilted and bound by another dear friend named Marsha in AZ. I will treasure it and the friends that made it forever.

YIPPEEEEE

















Lookie Lookie Lookie !!!!!!!! I am feeling mighty lucky lately ! I bought a few raffle tickets from my friend Dlog in Quilt Chat for chances to win the quilt that their guild made to raise money. I really had no idea of winning cause I am the person that could have every ticket but one and still not win....... but then I got a congratulations email and I about fell over..... This morning I knew it was coming in the mail and I was hovering near my mailbox like a vulture LOL.


Thank you so much ladies ! It is absolutely beautiful ! All that white I am going to have to fiercely guard it from my dog and my hubby LOL. Makes me almost wish it was chilly weather so I could wrap myself up in it !

Sewing Space


Ok ladies, I never want to hear anyone fuss about having a tiny sewing area LOL....I think I have the smallest of all. I sit on the bunk and my machine sits on the pull out drawer of the built in desk in my sleeper. I keep my blocks laid out on a lap desk beside me on the bunk, and when I need to press I get out the nifty little cutting mat that has a pressing surface on the back of it and plug in my mini iron and just steam away LOL. When I am ready to hang the quilt for pictures I use large clips to clip it to the edge of my upper bunk and let it hang down .

And yet another one .......


Got another top done for the quilting pile..... this one is called Square Crossing from the Square Deal book by Nancy Mahoney. Interesting pattern and very easy (just time consuming) to put together.
