    Alright, I have finished two more blocks, eaten a lite lunch, read all of the posts. This is fun to see what every one is doing, planning and accomplishing. But, I am off to chose another thread color and another block. Have great Quilting adventures.

    Worked this morning to finish a quilt for a toddler. Tomorrow hope to finish the baby quilt too.

    Loved reading what everyone is working on today.

    My project I want to do today is cut out all the applique for the snowmen heads and stars for my new quilt. If I have time, I want to cut out the background squares and maybe even applique them on. I'm not making it hard on myself. I'll just pop in and out of my sewing room. I get hot flashes if I stay in there too long...all the lights and the hot iron.

    Hi everyone. I started to sew. My stupid shoulder started hurting, again. I got on the computer to find a new lower sewing table. Hubby says, "Would it help to take the wheels off of your table."
    Well, duh. So a few hours later, the wheels are off. Some other things are moved around and the room is clean.
    The table is the correct height and the binding is on a wall hanging that dh found at a quilt show. Yep, he picked it out. I will take pictures later when I get the next project started. Lunch time......

    Great to see you all here. I take a break to check in, do a chore, and get back to it. Ready to sew the sides onto my little red and white baskets. Looks like it will be a twin with sashing and cornerstones. May not get it together today but the blocks will be done so it doesn't look like a pile of scraps taking up space.

    Looks like everyone is getting alot done. And everything looks so pretty. I have the top done for a table runner but don't have anything I like for the backing. I'm thinking a pinky/purply batik which means I'll need to go shopping I am in the middle of putting together a Sweet Treat bag (Moda honeybun)

    And my helpers/inspectors aren't really helping that much! The one keeps stealing my chair everytime I get up.

    Better late than never, it's after 11 on the West Coast & I hope to get 2 more of these little colouring totes done this afternoon. [ATTACH=CONFIG]336577[/ATTACH] But my little grand dog helper arrived to spend 12 hours with us instead of sitting alone.... so not sure how much stitching I'll finish. [ATTACH=CONFIG]336578[/ATTACH]

    on my goodness! i can't keep names straight long enough to make individual comments, but i am blown away by what y'all are doing!! i want one of each!! i think i'm becoming a virtual quilter-- i stay on the computer longer than at the sewing machine. of course, if i read and typed as quickly as i sew that might change a little.
    waiting for dh to get himself together so i can bring in a desk to sew on. meanwhile, i'm standing and sewing like they do on you-tube tutorials! i'd rather sit, thanks! time for more coffee and then back to play!

    I'm late, but will sew far into the wee hours so the time will be the same. Am I stalling because sandwiching the red quilt is going to be a bear? The back is another quilt so everything has to line up. This is only my second time using the boards, but I will manage once I get started. See you later.

    Everything posted so far is great. You ladies are so fast!

    I'm on track reaching my short-term time frames to complete this last side. It is fun seeing what everyone is working on! My inspectors know better than to get in my way today. LOL!!!
