I'm working on 2 skateboard quilt tops and to use up some scraps from the skateboards, a set of log cabin blocks. The skateboard block was originally in Quiltmaker magazine and it was modified a little. It's a great way to use up those funky large scale prints that you don't know what to do with.

The skateboard quilt top will look very much like this one: http://tinyurl.com/8wvz5on

I'm working on 8-point stars. I assist the local American Indian Center making regalia (dance shawls). After I make the stars in different tribal colors, we'll applique them on shawls. Not exactly quilting, but close enough, and the dancers seem to appreciate it.

Quilt top finished...now to wash and dry the flannel backing so I can sandwich and FMQ it. Made a nice dent in my stash. Now Father and Daugher can each have their own quilt with match fabric.

I am not quilting today. I am working on 3 fabric doll houses for great granddaughters for Christmas. I am having so much fun doing these.

No quilting for me for a start today.... got to clean up my office desk looks such a mess - I always say "never again will I let it get that far...." and then.....My excuse: quilting is always on my mind!!! lalalala.... But THEN, when I'm finished with THAT chore, I will keep going with the quilt I'm making for my grand-son for Christmas, a quilt with horses and the "puss in the corner" pattern - I will end up calling it "horse in the centre"
You all stay safe over there in the States with that terrible storm looming over your heads!!!
Take care!!! Blessings!!!
