I played 18 holes of golf yesterday, came home and stitched up a quilt and was called into work at 6 pm.  Naturally, I took some fabric and my sewing machine with me.  I cut fabric for two quilts but only completed one.  I so ran out of gas about 1 am!  I got home about 5 am and went to bed.  The dogs woke me up once to play, I yelled at them and went back to sleep until 10 am.  Once I had downed a couple of cups of coffee, I went downstairs and quilted for awhile.  Here is the finished baby quilt from last night.  I used Barbara Jones "Doll Babies".

Close up of one block!

I'm thinking of an early bed time tonight!  I have tipped my pop over twice in the last five minutes.  I think it's time to put the sewing machine away for the day!

I also mailed off my mini quilt for the Mini Swap, and forgot to take a picture!

I played 18 holes of golf this morning in 30+ mph  winds.  Phew!  Before I left home, I cut the fabrics for a froggie baby quilt.  I have now finished stitching it together and am piecing the backing.  It is too cute!

PS  It has now been quilted and the binding sewn on!

FNSI Finish:  Baby Quilt using Moda's "Bliss Flannel"

I am waiting for the backing fabric to arrive before I can quilt it!

My donation to the Humane Society for 2012 is finished.

Here are the long awaited pics of Jen's quilt.  It has been quilted, the binding sewn and delivered!  While sewing, I saved all the corner cuts and make her a little table topper as well.

Big Quilt

Table Topper

It's raining, so I am not going to play golf.  Instead, I am going to be binding one big quilt, and four little quilts.  Yes, I have been doing a little quilting this past week.  If I get my binding done, I will finish a mini quilt for a swap!  Don't know what's for supper.  But, I will figure out something.  Got any good recipes?

PS  I should mention that the big quilt is Jen's and one of the small quilt is made of clipped corners of blocks for her quilt.  Pics when finished!!

I finished my February Small Quilt Challenge today.  I had every intentions of using some red and cream reproduction fabric in keeping with Kathleen Tracy's theme of "Honoring That Pioneer Spirit".  However, before I found my reproduction fabric, I found the new Robin Pandolph fabric line "St. Remy De Provence".  I think that it turned out fantastic!

I finished my Wonky Houses and will make my committment to mailing them tomorrow!  YEAH!

There has been a building boom going on in my sewing room today.  I completed six more wonky houses.

This contractor is going to take a break and let her mind rest.  After I play golf tomorrow, I will be ready to build some more WONKIES!

I made my first wonky house tonight--only eleven more to go!  I have committed to having these in the mail on Monday February 6.

Let me know what you think!

I saw on Sentimental Quilter that Kathleen Tracy was hostessing a monthly small quilt challenge, making one small quilt a month for a year.  I decided to jump in and have completed the first month's quilt called "Crosses Mourning Quilt" from Prairie  Children & Their Quilts.  I haven't gotten mine quilted but at least the top is finished.  I can't wait to see what's in store for February!

I finished the binding on my January Schnibbles "Full House" last night.  I used Moda's "Countdown to Christmas".

PS  This quilt also counts for "Christmas Through the Year"

Do you hear the music?  How about whistles and bells?  Jen's quilt top is FINISHED!  It now moves downstairs to the quilter.

I also mailed off my Lace Quilties!

Happy week-end!

So, the big question is did she or did she not finish Jen's quilt.  Well, a funny thing happened on the journey.  I have lost two rows of the quilt, or did I ever make them?  I have been trying to clean my room and I may have put the two rows somewhere for "safe" keeping. 

I got called into work last night and took my sewing machine, fabric, iron, cutting board, etc. with me.  I then work on my quilting in between testing.  So, about 11 pm, as I am sewing two rows together, I am thinking only two rows to go.  AND all the pieces have been sewn, so I figure a piece of cake.  Just sew the blocks together and I am ready to quilt.  Now, if I can't find my missing rows, I have four rows to go!

Here are some pics of two lap quilts that I finished stitching together.  Last week I found 16 finished and leftover blocks of pink Moda's "Blush" from a quilt that I made a couple of years ago.  I brought them upstairs, added them to the pile and stitched the blocks together yesterday and have a nice pink baby blanket.

I also finished up a quilt top that I will donate to the Humane Society for their spring auction.

And finally, I stitched up another pillowcase for family.

So, to answer the question:  did she or didn't she, the answer is NO, DAMMIT!

PS  Please note that I work in manufacturing, not medicine.  No lives were in danger because I was sewing between tests!

This is one of my quilting finishes from yesterday.  Last night, I finished sewing the binding on.  And, I waited for some sun/light before I took the pic.
