Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I'm back to check in...I have to take frequent breaks when I'm FMQ a big quilt. I've done a dozen or so blocks and need to stretch my neck and shoulders... So, I took a few minutes to put a layer of spray paint on the dowels I'm going to use to hang a couple of these: FMQ for Christmas
It's great to see so many here to today, and what a wonderful variety of projects we are working on!

I'm in-doing a baby quilt for a friend who just found out her and her husband are going to be Grandparents-and got a presentation pillowcase done to be included with my "Quilt of Valor Quilt" to be sent out tomorrow to one of our Wounded Warriors in Afghanistan-it was requested by the Chaplains over there-so proud of our Men and Women serving in our armed forces, and just wanted to thank one of them-this is not going to be my last-a long armer in Michigan did the topping and might I say she did a beautiful job, I did the binding yesterday and washed it to go out tomorrow. Happy Quilting Everyone.
Hi, I'm in. Today I plan on working on the Jelly Roll Race Quilt. Of course I am not racing with anyone but just sewing when I have a bit of time. I can't imagine how this is going to turn out. It will be a 'throw size' and I plan to hand quilt it (maybe).
Great quilting to all!

Sew little time and sew many ideas
This is a great idea! I am going out for a run and then I will settle into some FMQ. I have a baby quilt and a full size quilt all sandwiched and ready to by quilted. Will check back in later! I hope people will post some PHOTOS of what they are working on, and I will too. It's so inspiring to see other's work...

This is fun. Hope to join you soon, as I have 3 WIP quilts. I hope to work on one or more of them today. I love the snowflakes. I'm also hoping to do my first experimental freestanding lace ornaments one of these days!

I am working on a quilt for my daughter from crudely cut pieces of material from a Hawaiian quilt store. I have the front completed and am working on piecing the back from the shirt her husband wore and her dress plus lots of those pieces I am having to recut and square up!
Retired teacher, loving it.
Love quilting also.
I spent the morning trying to get my password straight. Loaded a new security system, and it wiped out everything. Then I spent the rest of the afternoon, laying out a design with EQ7 for a quilt that has been running around in my head. Now that supper is over and the dishes done, I'm to the studio to work on my great-neice's quilt. She will be here in April.
Hi,count me in too. I have to make a quilt for my manager at work, I opened my big mouth an it got me in trouble again. she is getting married-second time around. I purchashed fabric and started cutting squares today. will work on more on Monday eve. Don't know when the wedding date will be - but have to be ready.
I am working on a customer quilt....one with lots of strip sets that have to be cut down and resewn.....so much tedious work. I have 5 of 18 quilt blocks done, then on to the sashing and setting triangles (all pieced).....have to get this one done so I can do a road trip to Chicago to see DD and her family!
