Quilt Progress

I wanted to post some pictures so people will know I'm not a total slacker around here. Cassie will have 24 blocks in her quilt; four each of six designs. I finished the last block today. Now all I have to do is arrange them, sew them together and quilt it. Oh, yeah, Candace has a quilt top that also needs quilting. Well, at least I won't have idle hands for a long time. *grin*

Quilting Progress

Inspite of all the excitment of playing in the snow, Candace and I (with some help from Cassie) managed to put two of the six big blocks together. I never would have picked orange, but I really like the way this looks. I think the red blocks set it off, don't you? It will be a cheerful quilt for sure. The cat faces aren't my own creation. I found them on the web and then drew my own pattern.

I'll keep everyone posted on our progress.

I'll confess that the blue and white quilt came from Walmart. :-(

New Quilting Project

When my soon to be 13 year old was about 3, I (with help from my mother) made her a quilt. She loves that quilt. It even went with us overseas for two years. Needless to say, that quilt is a little faded. DD 12 wants a new one.

Here are the colors she picked out.

I plan to post updates. Perhaps it will keep me motivated. :-)

I started some embroidery today. (Cat faces) Candace practiced sewing seams. This is supposed to be OUR project. We shall see.
