Jennifer's RR Square


I got it almost done.... I still need to square it up, but I figured that can wait until all the pieces are in. Not perfect,but oh, well. I can not wait to see everyone else's.

Walmart Quilt

Shelving




I went to the store to buy this one shelving unit for my material and stuff that lined the floor (what a mess, I was tired of it). I thought the cost of this unit was $98.00, I got there and it was $149.00...sheweeeeee. Well...I wasn't going to get that, too much money. Instead, I found these metal cubes that attach to each other and they were about 1/4 the price of the metal shelving unit. I feel so good to get all that stuff off the floor and to have somewhere to put my projects that I am working on. It is great.

ANOTHER GARAGE SALE FIND!





I found this quilt at a garage sale. It was hand pieced but unfinished. So I finished it on the machine and hand quilted it (finished it last night). What is so interesting about this quilt is, I found the quilt in pieces, didn't have a border. So out garage selling again and found this border, which matches a few of the pieces in the quilt. What a find!! I sure miss garage selling. Now all I need to do is bind it. The binding will be red, same material as the backing and it looks like it is old enough to be in the time period of the top of the quilt.

Basket quilt


This was sent to me from Aunt Barbara. She sent me one of her unfinished projects, the baskets. All I had to do was sash them. I would wait till it's completely finished. But that could take awhile, I need to find fabric to back it.

Toni's square


I know it's simple, but I think it will look cute with everyone adding to it.
