Baby Quilts II


I made two of the same quilts for Angela's friend and a lady at work. They were so simple and so cute. Pugs & Kisses

Baby Quilts



















Here are two of my baby quilts I have made. The orange football one will be going to community quilts at the guild. It is my least favorite. The green baseball one, I'm not sure yet. It is really cute with the baseball bats and gloves quilted all over.

I have been working a lot of over time because of the new data base system that we got at work. I don't like OT, but the work has got to be done. Stay tuned for part II. Pugs & Kisses

A good weekend


I spent yesterday and today getting binding ready and sewing it on for three quilts. Yeah! I have two more to do, but I ran out of steam.

I made a table runner at my Friday Friendship Group at In Between Stitches. Minnesota Hot Dish by Atkinson Designs. I used left over fabric from American Jane. I started quilting it and now have to get dinner ready.

I'd like to show you my Victory Quilt using Eleanor Burns' book. We completed two blocks per month at IBS at Kool Ladies. Now, I have an issue with Eleanor's directions, at least I didn't sit in the back cussing this time like I did with Egg Money. I could do a whole quilt just with a few of the blocks.

Got to go. I'm still going to do my blog, but I am learning Facebook. Pugs and kisses.

FaceBook

I have joined the world on face book. I find it to be more user friendly than the blog. Come and visit me. Pugs and Kisses.

Scrap Quilt

This is one of the scrap quilts that I made last year. Usually I give two away at Christmas to the "Adopt A Family." But this one I couldn't part with.
In the middle is an appliqued tree that I rescued from my friends garbage can. I loved the way the whole quilt turned out.

It is raining really hard and I have to go to work. I know we need the rain and the coastal cities have had the wind gusts, but it is still miserable out right now.

Better get ready to leave. Pugs and Kisses

New Computer and New Year

I'm finally ready to start blogging again. It has been a whirlwind of events and emotions in December. Christmas and New Year were very quiet and that suited me.

At work has been busy; not physical, but emotional. We are gearing up to going live with our new data base system. It has been meeting after meeting. I've been asking for one for 15 years and now it will be real on 1/25/10.

Breakfast is calling. Pugs and Kisses
