Here is a picture of one of the quilts I finished yesterday. I tried to get some of my other projects but the battery on my camera died

Pat, I'm going to have to get that book. I love PP and have done a lot of it. One a week - that's stretching it for me, but maybe after I get the book....

Sharkee, the butterflies are awesome. I have some ceramic decals that look like those. I loved using them on the pieces that I made. Are the embroidered and did you do them?

I didn't get as much done as I wanted. Went shopping with DH. Hit the hardware store, health food store and saw a movie (something DH rarely does).
I did get 7 pot holder/ hot pads done from some of my orphan blocks. Sent 4 to oldest son, and took 3 to youngest daughter today.

you know, this is turning into a virtual quilting retreat! i love that it's going on and on! i will be working on a crazy quilt for a swap. it's difficult because i love it for me, but have no idea if my partner will like it. i am tempted to start over.

I just love this idea. And today, I'll be futzing with some design ideas using Kaffe's fabric...can't waste it, so will be working carefully.

ooooh....I wish I was at home so that I could join in on this all day.....but ...I do have to work...but after work I will work on my hand applique that I am doing .

Ladies, have fun today..

Everose: Yes they are embroidered and yes I made them on my Janome 11000SE. I downloaded the butterflies off a sale on EmbroideryDesignsPlus.com last week and I think there are 18 different butterflies and all of them are just beautiful

Will try to keep up. Great idea. I took out the 2 dogs, fed them, ate breakfast and now on computer. I want to make another clothesline bowl, work on my quilt-as-you-go table runner to show at our guild meeting tonight, and clean up my sewing area. Thanks for the support.

Just noticed this thread was started on the 20th. Can we stretch this out to a Virtual Week of Sewing? Happy quilting.

I think rather than infringe on athenagwis' idea, we should start a new thread for daily quiltalongs. I like the idea of checking in here. It will keep me accountable and get some quilting done. Anyone want to start a thread? Maybe "Let's quilt together"? Then Athena can keep her monthly 'quilt with me' s going. She has been wonderful to do this for us once a month.

I like seeing other's progress and love pictures of WIPs and completed projects, so I'm in if it becomes a reality.

My progress since Sunday? Some outdoor work done and half the blocks on the red quilt FMQed. I need some advice, but I'll wait for the new thread.

Yes I always buy from fabric shack, I had a parcel from them today and I only ordered it a week ago and I live in southern England.
