Charity Quilt Finished

Our quilt guild is making bed sized quilts for our local VA hospital. My almost 90 year old mother pieced this quilt in just a few days from scraps in her stash. I have an HQ16 quiliting machine and still learning the technique. I decided this would be a good one to practice on. Not something I would want in an heirloom quilt but I think it will be fine for a donated quilt to charity. The quilt still needs binding which I plan to pass this task on to some quild members that have offered to bind quilts for the VA project.

Applique Project

Got in some sewing today. I purchased this as a kit last week while on a 3 day bus trip thru Illinois, Indiania and Kentucky. We stopped at nine different stories so I am not sure where I purchased this kit but think it was Loose Threads in Seymour, In.

I am wanting to do more applique and thought this would be something small and fairly easy to start with.

Now I have to decide which project to start next. I have many...

My complied BOM for July

I have finished the first Annie and Andy BOM that Kaaren at http://thepaintedquilt.blogspot.com/ is hosting. I decided to use 30's fabrics because a had all of this in my stash. I am happy with the results, If you are interested in this BOM I have a link to it on my side bar. Thank you Karen for this fun project.

Look what I received in the mail yesterday.

I received my fat quater bundle plus a few extras from Cyndi at http://www.bluebirdswing.blogspot.com/





Cyndi hosted a very generous giveaway recently with several winners. I was one of the lucky ones. Sorry Cyndi H and Gerry, better luck next time. :-) I have not yet decided what to use the FG's for but I will think of something with a little time. I love the cherry note pad and pen.

Thank you very much Cyndi. You are the best...
