doll quilts

Hello I have been sewing on a small doll quilt. I have used some of the newer Civil war fabrics from Judy Rothermel. I will post a photo of the one I have just sewn and the one I made earlier.

I like them both. Giving one away may be hard for me to decide on, but hey maybe I will make a 3rd one who knows. The last one needs to be layered and quilted and as does the newest one I have just sewn. I really like them both

This is the nine patch Sailboats

Newest Quilt Top

Hi all just got back from a fun weekend retreat with a few fellow quilter friends of mine.

This is the quilt top from Barry's class named Strip T quilt by Sharon Craige and taught by Edith Dyke.

It was a fun time by all. I am now working on some smaller wall hangings from a book called "Quilters Dozen". In it there are 12 different wall hangings one for each month. I will post them as I finish them here. They are fun. I am on January right now. Have a great night I am very tired and need some serious sleep.

Hi all, I am going to work in basement my sewing area today and maybe do some more lundry. just what you want to hear. But you know someone has to do it and I am it as they say. haha
I plan on doing some hand sewing today on a binding as well. wonder what I will actually get done? Hope everyone is having a good day so far. sure helps with our mood when the SUN is shinning!!

COLD COLD

Sure has been cold here in Ohio the last couple weeks. I am tired of it and would like to see a tad warmer.
I have been sewing and tonight I have sewn the binding on to the front of a quilt. I hope tomorrow to thave the it sewn to the back.
I am practicing my machine quilting. I will show you all some of it later on. But for now just popping on here to say HI and i am still here. Have agreat day.

Doll Bed to come soon

I have been sewing and making a quilt for a doll bed,. My friend is having her son make a doll bed for us . He is going to make it soon, I hope. I have my first quilt ready for it. Here is a picture of the one I have made I have to quilt it yet. I really like it. She liked it so well will have to make another one. I have a couple more cut out and hope to sew them next week. I have the strippy nine patch and thinking about a school house one. Everyone needs a log cabin one.
Well am tired and heading off to bed chat tomorrow all.

Snow and sorting out

I am hoping to get a good jump on my sewing area and the house in general this year!
Sewing is going to go on the back burner while I do some important things around here. I have spent to many years with sewing and quilt making taking the front and center. Not so this year I have a plan in mind and they are last on my list for now.
My reward will be to sew- for work I get done. I have let the house go and it really needs my attention. I plan to get a lot of the purging done this year! If do not do it-- it will consume me and I will never dig out from under the clutter!!
I have committed to a couple things before so I will do those and then limit the sewing for my reward when I get one major job finished. Happy New Year to you all!!!!!!!!!!
