I have had this quilt for about two months and finally got it quilted. I washed it when I was finished and I LOVE how it turned out!

This is Vicki's 2nd doggie quilt. I quilted this with paw prints.



I have pictures! This is Vicki's Doggie I quilt that she made for a friend. I quilted this with doggie bones!

I decided that you were probably wondering which
quilt that Julie chose. It is from Eleanor Burns and is called "Twin Sisters". I used Maywood's Willowberry and I really love this quilt.
Actually, I made two. I didn't like the quilting on the first one, so I made the second. Then, I ripped out all of the quilting on the first and re-did it. So now we both have one--mine is flannel and her's is cotton!
And, we are both happy!
I wasn't going to post today because I haven't finished anything in the last couple of days, but I have not been sitting on my fat laurels! I got my brother-in-law's quilt quilted, I taught someone how to quilt using a longarm, and have been working this afternoon on this and that.

I got home from golf yesterday and my significant other had all of the clocks turned back--2 pm! I had a pot of ham and beans simmering because my student wasn't going to get to my house until 2:30 and who knew what time we would finish up. So dinner was taken care of.

We had about two trick or treaters and at 7 pm, Wayne looks at me and says "bedtime"! I looked at the clock and he says, I thought that you knew I set the clocks ahead. So, umm, I am up at 4:30 this morning. I showered, read the paper, prepped a roast for the crock pot and logged in to see the November Schnibbles pattern--"Picnic". I got on ebay and found the pattern from Quilt Taffy and bought it. I was so anxious, I clicked the buy button twice and bought two patterns.

I went off to the golf course, arriving an hour early, which I NEVER do and played 18 holes in shirt sleeves, and the windows on the cart were all open. It was 60+ degrees, blue skies and no wind.

When I got home, my step daughter was gone--she will be staying with her brother for two months and then, we get her back. I really enjoyed her company. She left us a little thank you surprise. I let her pick a quilt yesterday. She was happy!

When I finish all of my "this and that" I will post the pics so you will see how busy I was. (Well, I don't know if busy if the right word--maybe obsessed is better?!)

This is another pic of my October Schnibbles.


Happy Monday morning.
There are pictures of my quilted October Schnibbles. I am improving on my feathers, only one boo-boo, which I am not going to show!
I got started on my last quilt for Vicki. I just have to sew on the borders and then quilt it.
I also started a quilt for my friend (Doris)'s daughter.

I also wanted to let you know that I finished my October Schnibbles top yesterday as well. I debated between fall fabric and breast cancer awareness fabric. I went with the latter. Ro Gregg has some beautiful BCA fabric--sorry will post the name tomorrow. Anyway, will get it quilted and post another pic.

Good Monday morning. My sister called yesterday to see why I hadn't posted anything on my blog. I said, "because I had not finished any quilts"! Well, guess what. I finished Vicki's mother-in-law's quilt. Vicki bought the material. It is mainly Moda "Aviary". The picture is not good, but...

I also wanted to show the back of my (Leeann's) little quilt--it is quite beautiful.
I am off to the farmer's market. When I get home, I am going to start a new fall quilt! Bye

I also finished this little table topper yesterday. Although these
are not my colors, I loved the fabric.






Leeann has been my hairdresser for 20+ years, so I took it to her as a little gift. After 20 years, she deserves something extra for listening to me! She said that they weren't her colors either but she knew right where she was going to put it!

This is a quilt that I made last year. It is from Moda's "Maypole". I quilted it on Thursday, along with Vicki's Quilt. However, I won't send it to her until I have one of her other projects complete. Did I mention, that I sent one of her projects home with her!!!!!!

I wanted to show you a picture of my third cousin, Rejeana, who came down from Spokane last Sunday for a visit. My sister, Rejeana and I do not necessarily look alike but our bodies are quite the same. We have the "Studeville" body!!!



She also brought me a giant zucchini--no, I did not take a picture! Yesterday I chopped it all up and made a double batch of lemon zucchini cake--yum, yum. I took two little cakes to my hairdresser for her son, who loves the cake. She also does NOT tell him that it is zucchini. LOL
