I got two new loveseats and haven't finished the throws I started for them (2 dogs who think the furniture is for them) so I found a box of 2" strips I got at an estate sale and am whipping up something FAST.

I'm getting ready for a retreat with my quilt guild next weekend. so, I am trying to get that all organized. taking 3 classes, plus have another project to work on. Way too much for the weekend I'm sure.
Can't wait to go. Will be my first. My DD is going along as she is a member too.

I am working on my Thanksgiving place mats and a table runner for Christmas of Grandma's flower garden. In between sewing I was trying to organize some of my totes by color. I sure wish I had more room for my stash.

I am working on a lap quilt for my livingroom. I was given several books of upholstry fabric samples a while back. I took all of the blue, green, beige and white samples and cut them down make blocks. I am going to the store later and buying some backing fabric. I hope to get some suede or something soft for the back since the top has lots of texture. I can't wait to get it done. :)

No stitching this weekend, I'm afraid. Yesterday morning it was time to clean out the garage. Made a mess of it this spring and summer when we moved everything from the basement to the garage while the basement was waterproofed and then put in a family room down there since it's dry. LOVE it! Then daughter and son-in-law dropped off 11-week-old grandson for us to watch for the night because they had a wedding to go to. Loving it but have so many projects in the works. Have a baby shower present to finish by Wednesday (swaddling blanket, matching burp rags and bib); two hooded bath towels with embroidered designs for a friend; quilt for infant daughter of DH's coworker who was born with multiple health issues and is facing another open heart surgery soon; quilts for each of my new grandsons and more burp rags for them, also. Want to have all of these done before Christmas so I can move on to new projects.
