Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I'm in. I need to make a small Nov quilt for a swap. I 'm still deciding on projects. I plan to cut and make 10-15 Christmas blocks for swaps, (more if I have time). In between I will work on my sister's doll quilt and pillow case. In between I need to make 2 1/2" block squares for a swap. I have the fabric, just need to cut them and package them.
That should keep me busy for 3 days. Have fun sewing and quilting everyone.
Don't hate me. I just finished the tenth "OSU" Table toppers (25 inch 6 sided) for Christmas presents for my special friends and family. And also, just finished a king "OSU" quilt for a friend for her son-in-law. And am now working on on 2 twin OSU quilts for a sister-in-law with the understanding that there is a child's "monkey quilt" that has to be finished first for Christmas (when a friend gets the material to me) before I can get the 2 twins completed....whew. I think I will go get a cup of coffee.
Busy in Ohio
I made 5 queen sized quilts for Christmas presents! One is completely done the others at the longarmer to get quilted so I can bind them and wrap them. Now what do I do? Lots of UFOs to finish though and decided to make a pillow for a friend and then there is the last minute things - guess I will be busy after all.
I plan to sew the sashing and cornerstones on this wall hanging. It is a sample for my Etsy shop and I really need to get it up.
I am too blessed to be stressed and too anointed to be disappointed!
Diannia, are your blocks embroidered or appliqued? So cute!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in Canada!
I need to finish up some curtains for a Sunday School classroom this weekend. Also, I want to make a small quilted wallhanging for our home. Hopefully I will accomplish and complete these two projects in the VQW.

I'm in, too. This wk. I started a quilt for a very special friend. Without the work he did on my house this summer I'm sure it wouldn't have sold as quickly as it did. He helped with decisions when my back was up against a wall. Besides paying him as we went, I gave him a huge bonus when the sale closed. There were no words to thank him for his emotional support.
Now I'm making him a quilt using "10 Minute" blocks. I'm using a fabric with eagles as the center pc because I had a pr. of eagles over my lake & often landed in my trees. I'm thinking of using eagle appliqués in sev places.
First project done --the Lone Star top. For some reason, its puffy in the center though.

Beautiful projects, Raggiemom and Diannia!
Hubby will be working both today and tomorrow, so I'm hoping to get a lot done. Piecing split nine patch blocks right now. Most of the squares are from swaps here on the board.
I also want to cut fabric for a quilt that will be a Christmas gift for my oldest son. Still auditioning gray fabrics.
Really enjoy VQW and seeing what everyone is working on.
What a good idea! This is a long weekend here in Spain, so I will try to take advantage of it because I need to complete a baby quilt for a newborn.
I'm a beginner and have lots of questions at every step, but I'm sure the job will be less hard with your companionship (you can count with mine, too... although I'm afraid the only thing I can offer is moral support!)
Nice projects, Raggiemom and Diannia. Kele, I love your grays and blues!
