The entire quilt, except for borders, is composed of one block - Courthouse Steps. What a beautiful effect those Courthouse Steps has in this pattern!! I had a great time quilting this one ... and the moment I figured out what I wanted to do with the sun motif, I knew it was going to be a special quilt.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is Joy's Star Sampler quilt. This was so busy and so pretty that I decided to use Magna-Glide Lime Green thread on top and blue in the bobbin ... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">No, you say!!! But look at the close-up of the back of this quilt. Great tension on my APQS Millennium machine. I love this machine!! With tension like this, what's not to like!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ok, enough about tension...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I used a Star and ribbon pantograph to go with the stars and ribbons in that black sashing/border. Turned out great!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is called President's Ladies (or something like that, I have forgotten) that Cathy made for her husband. Huge huge quilt with "medium" quilting. The large dark inner border has wheat sheaves so I picked up a wheat design and worked with that. Good job, Cathy!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is a table runner or bed runner that I had a lot of fun quilting for my NY friend Jeanita. She does a great job piecing and this was a dream to quilt.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And this is Mary's 9-patch sampler quilt. I used a flowy flowery panto on this and I think it turned out great. Notice how those 9-patches creep out onto that first border. Great job, Mary!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cathy made this for her son and his bride-to-be ... they are modern kiddos so she made this very modern quilt with the beautiful grey linen fabric. What a dream to quilt! Being modern, I went with a modern box-in-a-box type pattern. See close-up below.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It turned out lovely!! Congratulations to all!</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I took the month of January off to get some of my own stuff done and I think I did a good job. I quilted 7 Comfort Quilts for our church, made a few purses, cut and pieced a quilt or two, and generally just had a bit of fun. Also went to a quilt retreat! Love retreats! I miss the piecing and sewing ...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So here's some eye candy that has been done since then... Enjoy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>This is for my son-in-law Thiago. He and my daughter Liz live in Basel, Switzerland. She asked me months ago to make him a flannel quilt with the triangle pattern. NOT MY CHOICE of either fabric or pattern ... but I rallied on and finished it. The moment I cut it from the machine, I fell in love with it. The swirl pattern gives it so much texture. I used wool batting which makes it incredibly soft and light. It made it to Basel in 7 days ... Merry Christmas, Thiago!! And they opened their presents while we watched via Skype. Doncha just love technology!!</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>I saw this originally at Intown Quilters 2 years ago and had to have one of my own! Loved the fabrics and smushed them all together. There are over 20 different fabrics in this. I have to say that the directions are ... shall we say ... lacking? The designer did put out 7 videos to help you along but it still took some skill and effort to get it all together. Love my bag! Maybe it will see Basel one of these days???</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>And these are a posse of lacy zipper bags that I made for some of my sewing buddies. Once I made 5 or 6 of them, they came along pretty easily. But I totally wrecked an expensive iron because of the fusible. NO MORE EXPENSIVE IRONS FOR ME! </b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>And on Christmas Day, the Missouri Star Quilt Company put out a video on how to make an easy-peasy sewing mat. I've been wanting one for years and that day was a blessing! In the late afternoon I sat down, watched the video, and had it made by that evening. Love love love it!!! Of course, you see where my scissors (1 pair of at least 7 in my studio...sigh...) are sitting? There is a pocket for them but they just naturally sit right there on the machine. </b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The following four quilts are Comfort Quilts for our Stitchin' Sallies ministry at Due West United Methodist Church. They are NOT "charity" quilts ... each quilt is made with love and hope that it brings comfort to the recipient. We are a small group (I think we have 11 members at this point) and we meet weekly to work on the Comfort Quilts or on our own projects. My mission is to get them quilted. I finished up my customer quilts at Christmas and dove into the Comfort Quilt pile and finished these 4. More are on the way ...</b></span><br />

I have more than several unfinished projects that I really need to just pull up my big girl panties and JUST FINISH! So when someone says, "Here's a cute project we can do" ... I usually pretend I'm deaf and change the subject.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>But then along came friend Tina ... last May ... showing me this Beatle Bag. I resisted doing one then ... and then, again, along came friend Tina last week telling me she was doing another one ... oh good grief... so I bit. I had the pattern ... I think I can find two fat quarters around here somewhere ... 5/8 yard of another fabric isn't hard to come by ... </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>It is the smartest project bag I've seen in a long time and now that I've done one I know where the pitfalls are, and can actually see getting one done in a day or a day + 1/2 day. Time is my enemy ... I just don't have a spare week to work on any new project so this bag is perfect for my Saturday/Sunday free time. The pattern comes with the inserts - a set of 4, giving you 8 separate zippered plastic holders. If one were to do more than one bag, the inserts are available by themselves. How smart is that? How many will YOU make? LOL!</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>This one is a quilt of fairies and Frosted Fairy fabric! Love these big blocks and how Cathy styled it from light at the top to dark at the bottom. For a sweet granddaughter who helped plan the project. Great job, ladies!</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>It's not a large quilt but it sure takes time to quilt. Plus I'm not one to stand for hours on end quilting ... I take plenty of breaks, read email, catch up on far-away daughters, talk to hubby quite a bit, and there's always the time consuming "let the cat in...let the cat out...wait, she wants to come in again ..."

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a quilt for a customer's daughter. It's a beautiful shade of coral and white. Her piecing was impeccable which made my job easier.</span><br />

I paid for the quilt up front and the shop would send Tina a block each month ... at the same time I'm also doing the mystery quilt. Doncha know how much I love mysteries? This was Tina's Christmas and birthday gift all rolled into one.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>So the following year, 2013, after the mystery is all done I told Tina to send her quilt top to me and I would quilt it for her - as that year's Christmas and birthday quilt...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Fast forward to April 2015 ... I have had that blessed quilt on and off my machine a dozen times - thank goodness I have zippers. Every time I would get a good start on it, a customer quilt emergency would come along. So off it would come until another day. This past April I knew that I would be seeing Tina in May, so like a mad woman I finished up that quilt! And gave it to her last week and I think she likes it. I have never been so glad to get one huge project done. So now the question is: What do I "gift" Tina for this Christmas and her birthday? LOL! And don't you know ... I still have my own mystery quilt in the Waiting for Sylvia to Quilt Someday pile!!</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's not the loveliest of a foot, but it's mine and guess what those two band-aids cover? Yep, I was at my cutting board and I have a lot of tools hanging on pegs on a pegboard in front of the table. I knocked down a rotary cutter and it sliced the top of my foot. Now before you start retching, know that I use the dark blue KAI rotary cutters which only cut when pressure is put on the cutter. Well, my foot was a bit of pressure and the blade sliced through about 2 layers of epidermis. Enough to bleed a bit, but not enough to send me in a panic to the ER. Sooooo ... from now on, even these cutters will be in LOCKED mode when not in use. But this certainly could have been a lot worse if I had been using a Olfa and left the blade open... ouch ...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So here are some quilts that are now finished.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Several people I know are making this pattern but darn if I can remember what it is called. I like the dark-up, light-up configuration on this one.</span><br />
