Retired, happily married for forty five plus years, have one daughter and two wonderful grandsons. I am a member of the Missouri River Quilt Guild. Our guild is sewing quilts and lap quilts for charity. We are donating the quilts to a local foster care program and the lap quilts are going to the VA hospital.
I had flowers blooming in December. That is until I gave them away to special friends. I actually made three more but failed to get pictures before I gave them away.
These lotus blossom pin cushions were fun to make. It did require a lot of hand work but I found it to be nice to make something without sitting in front of a sewing machine for a change.
Myself and a few friends got together yesterday to do the mystery quilt sponsered by Planet Patchwork http://planetpatchwork.com/Case133/case133part1.htm.
I got all but the last border done by the end of the day. I just finished the outside border and have it ready for quilting. Overall I am happy with the small wall hanging. A few points could be better but after it is quilted and you don't stand real close it will not be too noticable. Not sure but I may add some applique to the border.
