I've been working on PP blocks for the Farmer's Wife 1930's blocks quilt. The blocks are so intricate it takes me an hour or two to piece one.

I have an I Spy quilt top to finish putting together for a customer tonight... have to mail that quickly. Then I can get back to playing with whatever I want.

Tomorrow is a QuiltAThon day with my charity group. We are sewing up lots of Christmas fabrics into quilts to give out to patients in the hospital this Christmas. I'm thinking I may just do some D9Ps to make it fast and easy. I love quilting with the ladies in my group!

I will be stopping by and playing a bit, but yard work must get done tomorrow. It will be warm here tomorrow and Sunday so I will work on a little sewing a lots of cleaning in the garden. But I want to see what everyone is working on!!
Sheliz love the project on the long arm.
Sewbizgirl great blocks.

I spend some time this afternoon cutting squares for ds's wedding quilt. They want a signature quilt so I cut out white squares today and will cut out rainbow colored squares to go in the corners. I will also be hand quilting my niece's wedding quilt. Then I have to start on my other son and other niece's quilt. ( yes actually 5 weddings but 4 Quilts in a year and a half). I have time Sat. Sun we have to do something with ds2 but I should have some time after we get back.

I love those zipper bags, Jeanne. The little suitcases and globes are so cute. (Riley Blake?) Nice how you covered the ends of your zips with fabric tabs. Looks great.

I will only be able to chime in for a bit this morning (once I get of the QB). Am traveling early Sunday morning for work. I have a couple more rows to assemble on my Allietare, it's the pinning that is time consuming....

Debra K, love your scrappy star quilt. Are you happy with your HQ Avante? I got to test drive one for just a couple of minutes at MQX last week. I am still up in the air as to which LA I want.

Vagabond, your Allietare is beautiful... I couldn't see your borders in the photo, did you go with gold?

Spring is finally here in Mi!!! Gotta go outside!!! I really like your scrappy quilt. Will keep it in mind for some of my leftovers.

I love the origami crane. I sent you a pm to see if you would give me information about the pattern. This would be perfect for my guilds "ugly fabric challenge"!

Will also have to be outside cleaning flower beds, etc. today but I know I will find some time to be in my sewing room. Have finished 2 large quilts, 3 baby quilts, 4 burp cloths, and a sewing machine cover in the last couple of months so have made progress on de-stashing. Have a couple of non-quilting projects to do then my UFOs are done. I'm sure I will find some inspiration from you gals to start something new this weekend. Quilt away!!!

My guild is now into EPPing, so I plan to work on a Lucy Boston block. And finish making a thimble holder.
