Hi Michele! You're on it! Hurray! Well I'm 'in' and will be heading to quilting in a few minutes....finally some quilting time! I would love to see the Royal Wedding in full, that airs at 8pm....but may have to miss it, I've caught the snippets, so that's all that matters.....
Blessings,

I finished 2 more quilts. The first was a UFO, the second I started recently. They are at: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-122539-1.htm
Hope you give them a look. Thanks.

Wow! kateyb, you're a Ufo master! Whew! you've gotten a lot done, and done well I might add! Great Job!
Keep at it, and if you run out of projects, just stop by my house and help me out with mine!

Ok gang, May is well under way....so let's get at it! A special 'all night party' challenge for tonight! I've set aside tonight for an all night quilting bee......anyone who can join in would be wonderful. I'm almost done with the Mystery Quilt so that's my project for tonight. Let's go and get those projects done!

I will be there! Ready for some inspiration to finish. Problem is most of mine are ones that need quilted and I usually handquilt, so it is going to take FOREVER! :( I will see you this evening!!

I'll be joining you tonight after I get back from my step-grandson's graduation party. Don't know how long I'll last though. I have 2 quilts to finish quilting for a friend.
Today I have some quilt kits to make up for the charity quilt project for the guild I am chairman of.

Michele & Kateyb...great to have you quilting along with me! Let's kick it into high gear and get 'em done! I just made it home and will grab a bite to eat and then start....I'm looking forward to a great evening of quilting!

Michele have you thought of maybe doing a couple of your quilts by machine? it might be quicker, but I do love your hand quilting for sure!

Kateyb I'm sure you'll whip out more beautiful quilts before I even get to my machine tonight and am looking forward to your posting them!

Blessings,
MaryAnna

I have sent a couple quilts out to the la, but I just haven't quite gotten brave enough to machine quilt myself. I probably should definately give it a little thought though! I am taking a quick break to order a pizza..be back directly! :D

Michele, machine quilting can be challenging and I'm not perfect at it yet, but it is faster than hand quilting and it can be fun. I also send quilts to my LA, but that''s only the larger ones....it does get expensive and I can't afford that luxury right now.

I'm almost done with my quilt, I just finished the top quilting and now I have to do the binding. I'm sticking with it and it will be done tonight. I'm taking a little break and thought to check the board and get a glass of soda....but break's almost over and it's back to finishing that quilt.

Will post pics when done.....

How's everyone else doing?

Blessings,
MaryAnna

The Mystery Quilt is now history and done! Yea! Another UFO checked off the list.

Please mount your horse and ride by quickly when viewing the photo....not my best quilting job!

I hope everyone else was able to make some headway on their projects.

Blessings,
MaryAnna
