Ladies Quilt ready to go to the quilter

Well it is finally going to the longarm quilter. I cant wait to get it back. It is on my daughters queen bed here, and it fits so nicely! Which btw was my son's bed until he moved out last week so she doesnt have the bed skirt and stuff to fit it yet :)

I'm so happy it turned out so good. My mom would be proud I think :) Love ya Mom!

I just LOVE this and had to share it. It just makes me smile :)

Another Scrap Buster Pillow

Still using up those UFO's! These UFO's were made using scraps and sewn strip by strip onto a muslin backing fabric. Today I put the four squares together, made my quilt sandwhich and free motion quilted in a meandering pattern using yellow thread to highlight the quilting.

UFO's

  Do you have them? We quilter's always seem to have them in lying around in drawers, bags, closets... you name it, if we can hide it there, there are some UFO's in there. What is a UFO you ask? No not the space ships that come to visit earth and bring us friends that like to eat our reese's pieces but the UnFinished Objects that we have started and put aside for another day, to which the day never seems to come.

  Well I'm going to try to start using up some of these. So to start it off, I have taken four string pieced squares I made some time ago along with two pieces I made for backs to the pillows I created the other day that I messed up cutting on because of distractions in my sewing room, and I miscalculated were to place my ruler. They were sewn up and looked to pretty to scrap, only a inch too short for what I had intended them for, so I just needed to make a smaller pillow to fit them to. So here they are! Now my stash is down by 4 blocks and 2 backs :) I know, I know, not much of a start... but hey, a start is a start! Right?

Story of Bottled Water

I saw this on another blog and found it very interesting. I remember the days of Pierre water. Do you? Watch this, I bet you find it interesting too!

I just cant get enough!

Of these pinwheel pillow's that is :) I just had to make another one today. This one is made with the same line of fabrics as the other pillow and the placemats. This one is bordered with a butter cream yellow. Makes me crave cupcakes! hee hee

Pinwheels go round and round.

Who doesn't love pinwheels? Well I certainly do! So here is a pillow cover that fits a 16x16 pillow form. This adorable pinwheel on patchwork background is just adorable and matches the placemats I finished yesterday.
