Beautiful, Ansel. Love your 'stars' and the starry night sky. Well done.

Sorry, QuiltE, I was having the wrong picture of things. You do so many great things, it's easy to confuse me. Those blocks were great that you posted last. Still have my 'Cheddar Cheese' place mat or runner that I am sending to you some day...just not right away. Still have little more to do with the quilt room; I have not seen a picture of your new machine, yet. QuiltE. Or your quilt room. Who can show the largest Stash?

Anael, those stars are awesome. Now I'm rethinking mine; I really like the constant background. Makes the stars float. Hmmm........

HELLO ladies! a quick jump online while I have a second, DSister wedding went BEAUTIFULLY it was soooo much fun! it was THREE days of 18 hour WORK! but still a good time! and it difficult to have a houseful of OCD sisters... but oh well what do you do? Sis went on honeymoon and left me to do the cleanup! more FUN for me sigh....

I have kids going to school next week, a fun adventure for them, they have never been. Dson has been home schooled, and VERY nervous to start SCHOOL. Ddaughter is going to kindergarten and it is ALL she has talked about for MONTHS... SIGH!!!

somewhere I still have plums waiting for me... and I get to go shopping for SYE fabric

ahhhhhh LIFE IS GOOD!!!

Ggal we will be thinking of you and sending hugs your way as you deal with life. Come back soon..

Now DH has just left for work, I have a quiche in the oven for dinner tonight and I am off to the cave, will post pics later today of Marjen, finished the binding last night, yay. And yesterday made two cushions for DD that match her butterfly quilt, I already had the butterfly blocks left over. The cushions are huge though 22 inches square, but she wanted big cushions.
Have a great day everyone

DDamsel ... so does this mean, with the kids going to school, you will be Home Alone with no little ones?? (well, there'll still be you and DH, but he's a big one!) You'll feel like you're on holidays! Oh please do tell us more about the wedding ... and some pictures too!! Such a good DSis you are to take care of so much to make her day extra special and ever-so memorableEE

MiraB ... so the cat has gone back to work, and the mouse can start playing!!!!

DH & I went walkin' taday. He got me up at 5:30 but I move so slow that we weren't outta the house till 6:00 (am that is.) We walked for about 20 min.s then I had ta "cool down." DH doesn't cool down, so I slowly walk back & forth through the house till I'm not sweatin' any more. . LOL this house is much longer than the other one. When I was cool, I looked at the clock & realized that I was gonna git up in 30 min.s, so it would be a real bad idea ta go back ta bed. DSIs met at the old house ta pack up some more stuff early. We didn't want ta be there in the triple digit heat. LOL We did go back & were there for 2 hours in the afternoon. Sigh. 5:30 was a long time ago.

Thanks for comments on the Crazy Pony Trail quilt. No luck on lasso fabric on a black background so will use plan B--fabric from my stash. Guess Honchey is using it to gather in SYE quilters in between Bingo cards. Gotta use stash up to make room for new fabric and it will look good! Not sure where the quilt's going--who knows maybe to my sister's workplace- a children's home for the disabled. Many residents are teenagers and this would fit nicely on a youngsters bed.

Great blocks QE--do both go to the 4-H quilt or are you keeping one?

DD-weddings are so much fun but can be so exhausting! Glad you had a great time celebrating this momentous event.

dublb it sounds like you are getting things moved bit by bit. WTGo. And a morning walk gets you going.

GGal--Thinking of you--sometimes we just have to stand back and let the world pass by while we deal with life.

mirabelle--thank goodness you always have a project going to keep us inspired.

Aneal thanks for picturing the stars together--"Starry starry night"--quilter's style!

Elise was by again today. She made a little purse and then a few more ornaments for my SIL. She's adapting fast. Meanwhile Emily is waiting patiently to get back to sewing. Ilean was back again--

In between working on a mini log cabin for hospital fundraiser. Can't wait to get it finished. Night all.

QuiltE

OKSGlad ... are you trying to tell us something, with a quilt name liek THAT???
Yes, both blocks have already gone to 4-H. I just decided to use up the extra and make the two. I can;t wait to see your latest MINI .... but guess I will have to!

Who have you been talking to ????

As promised here is the Not Marjen quilt and also a pic of Smith Mountain Morning. DS will be getting this quilt next week.

Will post closeup pics of the quilting tomorrow and also what I made today..

Anael

Mirabelle, stunning ! ! ! Maybe I need a DH too who's leaving often so I can play

OK, get rid of Ilean! Easier said than done, I know. I hope you're feeling better soon.

I was making a cushion with ladybugs for Mick with fabric my dear friend QE sent me. Took a picture but KK (PP) didn't want me to show it. Now she's sleeping on my chair so still no sewing. It's raining at last but this afternoon I have to go out and I don't want to use the car

Here's the ladybug cushion
