Here are some quilts that have found their way home recently. Enjoy!
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!
This is a Floral Sampler and it is big! The fabrics are based on a rose theme, so I chose Ribbon Rose for the quilting. On it's way to NY! Great job, Alethea!
And this is Eleanor's Lone Star. Another big quilt. We decided to quilt a simple panto and I think it worked out beautifully. Super job, Eleanor!
The next two are Little Monsters quilts, for two grandsons. Easy peasy but oh-so-cute! Robbie didn't want a whole lot of quilting so I used the Little Monster panto but made it big and spacious. Great quilts for two little boys.
I pieced this Bento Box last year and after working on a lot of custom quilts recently, I decided to treat myself to a simple panto. This is for our Stitchin' Sallies group. And it is done! Woo woo! Love doing something simple but cute ....
Today is our Anniversary ... woo woo! It used to be that The Sweetest Cowboy in the World (I could definitely be a charter member of the Sweet Potato Queen club ...) bought me diamonds and rubies ... little baubles that sparkle and shine ... NOW, at my request, my 'baubles' are now LONG-ARM toys! And I'm so happy! And TSCITW is happy ... if momma ain't happy, ain't noboby happy, y'all, doncha know?
True Story: We went to a fancy place for brunch this morning, and to the tune Happy Birthday, we sang Happy Anniversary ... soft, looking into each others eyes ... sweet, romantic. And then I added a 2nd verse just for TSCITW ... real soft, low, and sorta funny. Song over, we ate our brunch. Yum. Heading towards the door afterwards, I heard hubby laugh a bit. Outside he said that the man sitting behind us, stopped hubby and said: "In my 55 years, I've never had a woman sit across from me and sing to me ... you are blessed!!!" We giggled all the way to the car ... Happy Anniversary, Larry!
My newest present: Micro-Drive handles for the machine. And I'm planning on having me some fun ...
Here's a couple of pics of some of the flowers on our deck. I love this time of year ... if it wasn't so darn chilly and damp ... and these roses will be spectacular in about a week if we have some warm sunshine. And the begonias in the red pots will be HUGE in about 6 weeks. I'll check back later with you.
