    Well, I snuck back down and finished the quilt. It is a jelly roll quilt, but I like the strips cut in half. It is kid sized. [ATTACH=CONFIG]349230[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]349231[/ATTACH]

    More than halfway done with the blocks for GD quilt..got sidetracked by DD needing help with her online Government class..Back to piecing while I listen to the rain come down and the wind blow...I realize that some of you are suffering from a drought, but every time I hear the thunder, I think we will have to get) the canoe out to move about the yard! (we actually did so last year). Wish I could send you some of this rain...After tropical storm Debby, not sure how much more water the ground can hold out here in the swamp where I live

    Well so far I have gotten half of my blocks squared up, got bored with that so I decided to start putting the blocks (that I have done) together so now I have 1 1/2 rows done. This is taking longer than I expected but I am trying to do it carefully. Will post what I have accomplished in a little while.

    I finally got home and took a picture of what I am finishing. My daughter made the x-stitch for her sister and I 'framed' it and quilted it. Just need to hand stitch the binding. Then on to a qayg using applique leaves and filler pieced blocks. It will be for our queen bed.

    Nancia, did you find the wedge ruler? I could lend you mine. I had to start a different project because I lost the backing fabric for my animal I spy quilt. Am sure I'll find it, just don't know when. Oh well, another UFO is being sandwiched and then we'll go from there.

    Continue on ladies. I have to leave here in a few minutes to go to my dinner at DDILs. I don't imagine there will be much time tonight to start anything else. I still have one quilttop that needs to be backed and quilted. I have to lay out the backing and see if it needs to be pieced. I may be able to do that tonight. Now that I am on a roll, I would like to get the last UFO finished.

    Jtquilts, I like your cross-stitch, and the maple leafs. I do counted cross stitich on my embroidery machine.

    Have fun everyone, I'll check in later.

    I love the graphic look of your brown and yellow quilt! Everyone's projects are wonderful! I love the feeling of accomplishment when I make progress and I love how your projects cause me to add to my list of things I would love to do!

    Huntersgramie, I bought the leaves already cut out in a baggie at a quilt show many years ago. It took a long time to applique them to muslin and then they were stored in a box for several more years. About 6 months ago I started this project and my DH said they belonged on our bed so that is where they will go! Sorry about no leaf pattern.
