I'm working on mug rugs for a friends St. Patty's Day party and I decided to make a table topper using the 10 minute block method. It turned out great. Just have to finish the quilting on one block and put the binding on. (I'll post a pic. when I'm done)
Then it's back to the UFO's that I promised to complete. |

I am working on a quilt for DGS. All of the other Gkids got theirs on Christmas. His Bday was Jan 14. I was going to have it done by then, but we have been having a crisis in our family and it has been real hard to take time to work on it. Now that I have calmed down (some) I am trying to get it done. It is very simple (may be too simple) and I just want to get it finished! I have several WIP. Guess I always will. Lord willing.

Walked the dogs. Finishing up the last of the hand quilting on my Celtic Knot quilt. Then spending the afternoon cooking up appetizers for the Super Bowl game tonight. I have requests for Jalapeño Poppers / chicken wings / potato skins and nachos. Someone asked for Taco salad but alas..no lettuce and its too awful to drive to town to the grocery store today!
Be careful! The snow coming down here is that wet sticky big stuff - I always worry about people over doing it shoveling - that stuff is heart attack snow! It weighs a ton! |
Cleaning and organizing my quilting room and working on UFO's... Dreaming of other quilts to be made..
|
I got a new puppy last week so sewing has been a little crazy because he goes after my machine cord.

Have you thought of calling on Peter Walsh? |
Not snowed in but have record breaking cold. Below 0. Water pipes froze then burst. Were without water from Wed. p.m. til yesterday afternoon. Too cold to be out so I've been working on my first string quilt. Trying to use up some of my scraps. It' so fun! Stay warm you guys!
|
I'm not snowed in per se, but I have no reason to go out either, so I made a Project Linus quilt, finished a potholder and a table runner, 1/2 of my UFO's, so I'm a happy quilter.
|
I finished a minky blanket I started in a class about a year ago and made a cover for my Kindle. Today I want to start on a rag quilt

Making a Turning Twenty for hubby and a Front Porch Swing for granddaughter #1.

I'm working on a quilt as you go, and if I get enough umph to get back to it today, it should be done. Also just learned by a u-tube video to paper piece, so made a very pretty square that I have to sew together, then I'll add it to my miniatre wall. Have a daybed coer to quilt, a wallhanging, and two UFO's that I may or may not get to.
|
Just looking at all the snow and wishing it would go away! If I could/would get off here I think I'll go thru some scrap shirts I have cut up and seperate the Blues from all the other colors. I'm working on a 30's Puss in the Corner quilt but not every interested in it today.......
|
Working on an I Spy quilt for the Sleep Center. Need to put two borders on yet and then I can quilt it by hand. No snowed in but I am either sewing or quilting all the time.
|
I'm going to try to work on my Round Robin border today. The fabric came yesterday and I don't watch football so I can have some uninterupted time to sew.

Jaci Wow! You better be careful. Folks will start calling you a hoarder. LOL (Just teasing.) Actually, mine used to look like that. I do admire you for being brave enough to post it. Finally got mine straightened up, but that only gave me room to buy more.
|
Looks like my sewing room. Just got to take time to get organized.
|

We are not snowed in down here, but it is colder than normal. I'm quilting a baby quilt, and then have a bigger quilt to work on after that. I'm also knitting a scarf to send to my son in England, to match an earflap hat I just finished knitting for him.
We had sleet and freezing rain this past week, so I stayed in and got six new bags made for my Etsy shop! |
Eleven quilted aprons, one pair of mini mitts (hot pads), a cover for my sewing machine and organizing my stash on the new fabric boards I just bought. Also went to the Quilt Expo on Friday and purchased a book to make a quilt by Jenny Haskins that is a block a month, like that's going to happen.
|
Not snowed in - made it out for church this morning. Working on my lecture for my class tomorrow and getting ready to put a quilt on the long arm for a customer. Oh.....and waiting for the Super Bowl to start.
