another block done

I finished #7 block of my "A Boy's Story" quilt top. From Hatched and Patched. Here is the whole block. Close up of the applique block...

close up of one of the embroideries.

And a close up of the other one.

Here is a shot of the whole quilt top so far. I am thinking it's pretty huge.

Only 2 more blocks to go. :o) And then I need to figure out what I am going to do about quilting it.

signature tree quilt is finished.

Back from camping and we had so much fun.

I picked out the binding fabric. And here she is all finished.

Here is a close up of the the binding so you can see it better.

Headed out for another camping trip tomorrow. :o)

leaving to camp.

My daughter's robotics team had their 'team celebration' the other night. And my girl friend has a little bakery shop so she made robot shaped cookies for the celebration. Shaped like THEIR robot. They were a hit.
I added a few boarders to 4 of the blocks I've stitched up in my Bareroots BOM.

And my boss ( Joyce, of Quilting Adventures) came home from Market and brought some Heather Ross back. I was able to get a few. They are so yummy. I really love the owl and pussycat and the full moons. What should I make out of them?

We'll be getting more on the bolt later, I can't wait. :o)

binding color help

I finished Becca and Dison's wedding signature quilt. It just needs a binding....

I need help.... what color binding do you think? Blue? Green?

Brown? Dark green like the tiny 1st boarder?

Help!!!

The pattern for this quit is called 'Seams Like Home' by Joan Jones.

rocket and prom

A rocket for my "A Boy's Story" quilt. I had to add martians from Heather Ross's Munki Munki fabric.
My baby girl went to the prom this weekend. Her sweet boyfriend is a Senior, so it was his prom. She is wearing 4 inches heels in this picture and he is still that much taller than her.

They are such a cute couple. And I just love him to death. He is always acting silly as she is too.

Headed to finish my rocket block and do some laundry. Happy sewing. :o)

sweet heart

Added a sweet heart to the tree. The pattern does call for the heart so it wasn't my idea. I hand embroidered their initials and the date of their wedding in the heart.

Here is a sideways picture of it. :o) I also added a bunny to the side of the grass.

Oh and I got all the leaves stitched down. I think I am about ready to sandwish this thing together and start quilting.
Happy Sewing.
