Yesterday I was at my LQS sewing pillowcases when I found a wonderful table runner. My gf had the ruler needed for the runner with her since she asked me to cut one of them out for her.

Before we left I had sewn the top together. It only has 5 seams. I will quilt it this morning and give it to my sister to thank her for hosting Father's Day.

I am also getting ready for summer vacation from school. It starts Tuesday and I can't wait. My big job this summer is to organize my sewing room and making quilt tops from all the fabric I have accumulated throughout the years.

I'm working on cleaning up my "toss it on the table" messes left over from our guild's hosting our state's annual quilt symposium and quilt show last week. Boy, was it ever so much work, but ever so much fun!! I loved the vendors...spent waaay too much money...and have added another 5 projects to my UFO-NYB's! Sewing will start just as soon as I have the kitchen table cleaned off and vacuuming and dusting and weeding the garden and fertalizing the petunias and getting the laundry done, blah blah blah! Ya know how it is? LOL! Sewing is soooo much more fun!

Trying to finish up a red & white log cabin and making some aprons for my mom. I also want to spray baste a few tops and have them ready when my vacation starts.

I am working on an embroidered Christmas quilt, 48x48 and for bad or good, I don't like to stop what I start, so I have decided to work on this quilt all summer while it is nice enough to sit outside and listen to a good book, or hear the birds or visit with the neighbors. It is the same design all four sides and the border which says "Merry Christmas" two times on each side is done in three shades of red - oh, yah, it is all cross stitch!!!!. It is a kit I got from a friend of mine (she hates me) that included everything except the back and the binding. It has little printed dots all over it to follow with the needle when I hand quilt it! It is called Holiday Treasures and there are 8 Santas, 8 angels, 12 ornaments, holly and pine cones, ribbons, berries, 8 candy canes. I have been working on it for two years now - You can Google it. It is Bucilla Holiday Treasures - 85312. I take it to the drs. office when I take Mom to the dr. If my husband has to have a procedure done or something, I take it along, when we go for an overnight to the casino, it goes with me. It is my closest companion. I keep everything in a little black bag with a handle so it is quite conveniently packed to pick up and go! That is my project for the summer. Now, aren't you glad you asked???????? Have a great day!

I bought a "Curve Master" foot to do a "Drunkard's Path" quilt. It works like a charm for curved seams (convex and concave). No pins, no puckers. Take a look at their site http://www.justcurves.biz/ Hope this helps.

Everybody's going to have sooooo much fun this week. I am in the process of finishing up UFO's. Just a couple more to do. Then I will work on DGSs fleece blanket for him to take to college in the fall, but I will present it to him at his graduation party July 7th. Also have a bunch of charity stuff to work on. I also want to start on another bargello, this time in blacks/greys/browns batiks.

I finished two tops one is a baby quilt. Need to get backing and quilt. Also have a mystery quilt half pinned so I need to finish that project so I can quilt it. I have a purse all cut out and ready to sew. Then there are projects in my closet in containers I need to get started on. I have enough to keep me busy for two years so I sure hope I don't find another project in the LQS!!! Have a great summer!!
