Done and off the machine....

My customer always chooses the brightest and cheeriest colors...  just what we need on a gloomy day!


Maybe it's not all that bright but it sure is cheery!!!


With working the two jobs still I'm trying to find at least one day a week to quilt!  What use to take me just a couple days now seems to take me a couple weeks...


I think this is one of my favorite edge to edge treatments...  :-)

Just Leaf It on the Web...

My cyber friend Jenny as just finished a fabulous quilt that she quilted with leaves...  you must check it out!

Jenny also has developed a Quick Curved Ruler and several patterns for piecing a few absolutely fabulous quilts!  I'm ordering her ruler today...  and a pattern, but I'm having a hard time deciding which one!  Love them all.  While your checking out Jenny's website don't forget to take a look at her Urban Nine Patch quilt along...

WIP Wednesday

My Stackers quilt is getting really close to being ready to quilt....


This awesome border print kept yelling at me...  it really, really wanted to go in this quilt.  I need to get a pic of the print before I cut in apart.  When you see it on the bolt you would never think it goes with this..

On the machine today...

I finally found some time to quilt...  A simple edge to edge treatment for this wonderfully bright quilt.  I'm calling this design Butterfly Wings & Mistletoe Leaves....


Have I ever told you how much I love bright green!!!  LOVE...

I've  also got some more done on my Hearts Desire...  appliqued my block onto a black background.


Now I need to decide what to do next....

Ice Storm....

It decided to rain today one top of the 15" of snow that was already on the ground...  but the rain turned to ice as soon as it hit!!!


I hope I have enough mulch around the base of my new lace leaf maple....

All my trees are covered in ice!!!
