    I hope to finish a fabric box. Recent surgery has me slow to recover, but I just might get the fabric box done!!!! Thanks for the inspiration.

    Wow! some great looking projects, Kaelyn.

    I'm still piecing on that little scrappy I showed you all last time. DH saw it and decided that the quilt needed to be bigger, and that we needed to keep it. Okay, but I still have to make a baby quilt to give away.

    Kaelyn, your OBW is exquisite! And you found that fabric at JoAnn's? I am on a fabric diet but I can see I am going to have to make an exception for this blue fabric. I haven't done a OBW yet but your's certainly is inspiring me.

    OK, I am in. I have to tailor the sleeves on a dress jacket and a gorgeous blouse for my friend at church. That is a must since she already paid me. LOL Then, I am going to quilt some fabric to make a shoulder throw for my 85 year old Mom. Then, I have a million things I want to work on: fabric quilted boxes; purse for DGD, doll size quilts for the church bazaar that our table will be earning money for batting and backing to make quilts for those in need, quilted place mats to cover the trays we use in the living room. The list really goes on but these are the first items. I am baking a casserole size blueberry pie for my DH to take on his hunting visit with his nephews and grandnephews. I am sure it will be gone by tomorrow night!

    Will plan to join you tomorrow. Working on a wall hanging now. Will have to take pix with my cell phone, then text them to my DD who in turn will email them to me so I can upload them to the forum. (I have a "dumb" phone, not a smartphone, so I can't post directly from the phone to the forum ). Also need to figure out to border or not a string quilt, so count me in!

    I'll join you (off and on) this weekend! We will be busy with other things too this weekend.

    I already started by loading a small child's quilt that needs to be quilted and bound. Then there's 5 pairs of pants to hem....does that count????? Then there's a large child's quilt I need to quilt and bind.
    If I can get that all done (or nearly done) by Sunday night, I'd be a happy quilter!

    Greetings!

    Love seeing all the beautiful projects being created!

    I just finished a quilted casserole carrier (second one this week) and plan to continue stitching out some machine embroidery nativity figures. Then I have some coasters to stitch up. Next, I want to get a start on a tree skirt which will be a housewarming gift for DD#2. First, I want to pre-wash the red fabric with a color catcher. Those projects will keep me busy all weekend.

    I'm in too. Tomorrow Nancia is going to be here with me, so maybe we can join in. Don't know yet what I will be doing, but have plenty of things that I could work on.
