Flowers!!

These were delivered yesterday--DH is working and he always gets me flowers on my birthday! I had to email this photo to him so he could see how good he did!
I am going to friends for Thanksgiving dinner. I hope your day is good and you take time to thank God for all His blessings!!

Quilt finish #17

This has been a completed top since March 2012....but I have a few tops waiting to be completed!! Usually it is piecing the backs that derails the process, but sometimes it's not knowing what pattern to quilt. This fabric was gifted to me by my friend and employer and is from the book 6 halves make a whole. As you can tell by the title, there are 6 different half yard fabrics in this one plus the border.

Quilt finish # 16

This is the Dancing 9 patch on Bonnie Hunter's blog under the free pattern tab. I have been making 9 patches as leaders and enders and still have enough for at least 2 more quilts this size!

Design Wall Monday

This is all that's on my wall: two quilts are in the process of being bound and wonder of all wonders: 2 backs are pieced and ready to go!!!
These are leftover triangles from snowball blocks from one I'm binding now--we will see how big it grows!

Quilt finish #15

This is a jelly roll race with borders, and very bright! Becca gifted me with this jelly roll and since I have been itching to try this pattern (and I was at a retreat where I have been known to mess up the cutting of a Yellow Brick Road!!! (head hung in shame))I decided even I couldn't mess this up--and if I did, no one would know! And voila--it came out perfect! Of course I had to quilt it with hearts and there is even the word "Love" quilted on it!
I warned you it was bright!!
