Wooohooo I got 2 done!!! One today and one last Friday.
The first is the "I spy Alaska" quilt. I got it done and gave it to my MIL on Saturday when we were down there visiting.
The Second is a pair of pillows for DD#3, the quilt and 3 other pillows were finished 4 years ago, these have been sitting here in small pieces since then!!!

My UFO is a large gueen size quilt. it is layered and I am hand quilting it. It has 36 Freddie's House blocks on it. I just finished #14. Will start on #15 tomorrow. When I have the houses hand quilted, I will then go to the machine and do the grass and trees that surround each house, by machine. This has been sitting since the year 2000. I know because I put some 2000 fabric on as a border. I'd really like to get it done so I can show it to some of the ladies who made "house blocks" for it.

Thank you
The Johnny Jump Up quilt is foundation pieced on muslin. The pattern was more of a look at and then place the first foundation piece but then you just add as you go. It would not be hard to come up with something similar on your own.
The quilt with the little blue pieces are blocks that are attached in rows with just thread. The blue pieces are painters tape I mark the block with so I can keep them in the quilt where they are supposed to be as I sew it together. It is not a completed top waiting to be sandwiched and then quilted.

will u please tell me what r u talking about i feel i get lost? 4 give me
