Nice projects everyone. I am still working along on my mini pineapple blocks. Just a few more to go. It was a nice sewing week-end.

Penny really like how the checks and plaids work so well on your Irish Chain quilt. Great job :)

GrandmaTerry, welcome neighbor! Love your heart pillow. I also own a FW. What year is yours? Mine is 1947.

KenmoreGal2, love your quilt. It is simple but beautiful. Love your totes also.

This is what I've been working on today. I ended up spending most of yesterday moving furniture. I'm trying to replace the carpet in my sewing room, so need to clear it out. With my son home for reading week, it seemed like a good time to move the heavy stuff out. But it sure did make a disaster of my sewing room.

This quilt now has extra borders top and bottom. 1 wide border around the whole thing, and it will be the right size for donation.

This is from yesterday before I put the last row of squares on. Yellow borders are next. I'm scared of borders! :p<script type="text/javascript" src="safari-extension://com.ebay.safari.myebaymanager-QYHMMGCMJR/a99d0884/background/helpers/prefilterHelper.js"></script>

Love the scrappy Irish chain, Pennycandy. I definitely see the yellow chains. Anything made with shirts is soooo cozy. My snuggle up quilt for the couch is a shirts quilt.

All done! This quilt is 36x48, and was entirely made with the leftover fabric from another quilt. Sixteen 10" squares, plus some yardage of the white batik.

Now to get started on one of my block of the month projects ...

Penny I love the scrappy Irish chain. You can really see the chain when you look at the picture.

I spent today doing some friendship stars for a charity quilt and I made the first 3 squares of my Dear Jane. I am in a 13 month program that started on Saturday.
