I am back

Well here is the first quilt that I have finished in the New Year. I started this quilt in Dec and decided to finish the one in the big frame.

Sorry I have not posted in awhile but the New Year hit me with a bang. The first week I was sick and when I thought I was over it, it said bang I am back. Well I hope that I have gotten rid of it now.

But I did not let it get the best of me. Mom and I have 2 nice size plastic tubs full of scraps. Well we got a stripping machine. I put it to work and have one of those tubs stripped.

I also put 2 baby quilts together and put another border on another one. I will show you those as mom and I get them quilted.

Back to the strips....... Well as some of you know my sister Margaret at average quilter has quilted our mothers round robin. She did not put the binding on. And mom got that quilt today in the mail. First thing we did was look at the strips and found the binding for it. Now all she has to do is put it on.

Mom also has a quilt she is almost finished with so please stay tune and don't give up on us. I will try to be better.

Hope you all have a nice and happy weekend

Jim's Quilt

Mom has finally finished Jim's Quilt. Now she has all of her kids done and she can put all of her time into the rest of the grand kids. It turned out really nice.

I am done YEAH

It has taken me a year to quilt this quilt. I gave it to my daughter Anya for Christmas. She just loves it. And I just love having it out of my frame. I have done other quilts while this one was in the frame. Now onto the next project.

Troy's Quilt

This is the quilt mom made for my son Troy. Now she only has 11 more grandkids to go. Troy loves plaid so that is why she made this. It turned out to be very warm.

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Turtle Quilt

Mom and I have been working on the baby quilt for about a week now. It was a lot of hard work. But it was worth every bit of it.

Well Barb no we don't have your tops. But we do have a box that came in for you. Itchy fingers to open it. When you get settled we will send it to you.

Now I have to get back to the quilt in the frame that is almost done. It is calling my name and says it wants out. So now I have to go to the grind.

A special quilt

Mom wanted to do a special quilt for someone(whom I can't name). So we had this fabric from Inchworm Fabrics. Well I pieced the quilt and mom quilted it. We sure hope the person who gets this quilt will like it.

Hi All

Thank you for welcoming me to the blog. This is not the post I wanted to do this morning but i could not find the picture of the quilt I was going to post.

Yes I did get a new machine and I am still working out the kinks. When my sister Barbara was in we played with it for awhile. I really wanted her to try it out but she would not. So she helped me to figure it out. We had problems (boy o boy problems). My thread wanted to bunch up and I broke a needle. But all in all we did figure it out a little.

So look tomorrow or later today and I will show you our new quilt that we have done. We got the fabric from inch worm fabrics. Go over and check out her fabric, she has some really nice fabric.
