I'm in so many people getting creative this weekend. I'm working on a row by row quilt. Sewed one row together need to cut out and sew another two rows to be up to date. Have a quilted cushion to make as a wedding present. Will be very pleased if I get the cushion made and one row cut out by the 4th. Happy Birtday Heather, thanks for organising.

http://www.ilovetomakequilts.com/grandmas-kitchen/ this is the link. She does 2 to 3 Free Sew Alongs per year. This started last Summer. It is still up if you want to print. The great thing about this one was she did a 5 part Quilting Your Own Quilt. (It was to sell her book, but I found it helpful.) Did use the majority of her pattern but added more. It is all with a walking foot. Only lack 3 borders then will post a picture.

FYI, Pat Sloan is doing a Christmas BOW starting this month.

Happy Birthday, Heather! Thanks for hosting again.

I am amazed by the creativity that is being shown in colors and designs. Way to go!

I got my BOW done for the Accuquilt Qube group. I worked on 2 of the borders for the Rest and Refreshing quilt but it sure takes a long time to sew all of the setting triangles. Progress is being made on squaring up donated 9 patches that were super uneven. I am using my 5" die to run them through the cutter. The outside squares won't necessarily be even but at least I can sew them together or put them with plain colored squares.

Sorry for the huge picture. I resized it like I usually do.

This is the wall hanging I'm working on of my daughter's dog. I've pretty much finished his face except for the details, some of which will be done in Inktense pencil and just started his ruff and neck.

I'm also sewing skinny tubes of fabric across the back of this wallhanging, so that I can insert dowels across each wide section top and bottom and then again on the bottom, to make it hang straight for a show.

Happy fourth day of VQW, everyone and a happy belated birthday wishes to our host Heather. Hope that you had a fabulous day. I plan to get back to working on the donated Transparency top that I domestically machine quilted, today. Then I really would love to sew on one other project. Me and the password is still having our issues. Guess I won't be able to post pix this time, but I can work and read others' post so VQW quilters have a good warm day, love seeing your pictures.

Does cleaning the quilt room where the longarm is and counting all the tops (150+) we need to quilt count? I will start quilting some of those and also work on my Women of the Bible quilt which has languished. I have 25 blocks to do. Will also start on a Quilt of Valor for my friend who is retired Coast Guard chief petty officer. Ringo Lake done, just need to quilt. I won't list everything else because it would take years to get done. Happy 4th everyone.

I'm taking a snack break right now and bragging a little. I finished a top to the binding stage and finished the binding on another one. I have to admit that these are little baby quilts so not really that hard! It's so hot upstairs in my sewing room, I am going to do the hand work on the binding down stairs in front of the TV for a while.

How are y'all doing?
