Kelly - love the colors on that sunshine quilt.

Looking at Battle Axe's quilt makes me want to put what I'm working on aside and work on a sampler. My first real quilt was a brown tone sampler. It was king size and hand quilted. It was for my bed, but no idea what happened to it over the years. DH and I had only been married a couple of years at that time. I made it while living with my parents while he was in Basic Training.

30+ years later after my Mom passed, my siblings found a candy box with my name on it. Inside was the patterns I'd designed and used for the blocks! I did not know my Mom had saved it - and now I have it so plan on making another some day (but this won't be hand quilted).

Yesterday I got the two Cottage Romance floppies done.
Queen



Baby size.



And this AM started working on the Snake River quilt.




After breakfast I figured I should do something about the two buckets of apples - got them pealed and ringed and 50 of them into the dehydrator.



Had enough left for a batch of apple crisp,



so DH won't feel I'm ignoring him too much while I spend the rest of the weekend sewing!
