I Have nothing……ugh……
Way too many things going on for me. Last week I started the “new” job. My mind was not on quilting. It was on getting up at 6:00am and getting where I belonged. Then there was the total exhausting from trying to learn how things worked there. Came home, ate dinner , went bed, repeat.
So I apologize to all the ladies of the quilt along, I will get my act together.and hope to have something soon. Please visit all these wonderful ladies;
Kathy, Margaret, Kerry, Emma, Tracy, Deb, Connie, Susan, Nanette, Edith, Sharon, Karrin, and Gretchen
The Paint Chip Challenge.
This is an event that my guild is putting on. I paid $5.00 to draw a bag that contained a paint chip. You must use the colors on the card you draw, all of them. You can add a fourth color not on the card if you choose. The project is due at the Christmas meeting where the top three divide all the money collected. So, I had to get to work right away, because I have issues with deadlines, or at least quilting deadlines. My colors aren’t bad,
but I struggled with what to do. I felt I needed to do something simple in order to get it completed in time. So, I chose this simple pattern from “Block” magazine.
Well, it is simple. In my head, I thought I ould make it look good. I uses my 4th color (the one I got to choose) as a print.
The print is paired with the royal blue, and light blue is the green columns. I plan to use the tan as the binding.
finish the Star Wars quilt. Quilt and bind. That is the plan. I hope it finishes better than the photo. Not to fond of it right now. I plan on quilting stars with my ruler. We will see what happens.
For my Hand Quilt Along, I have finally picked back up my dog bone dresser scarf. It is nearly finished. I added the last dog bone, so hope to have it finished soon. This is the lat one in the set of 4. Please visit all the wonderful ladies in the Hand Quilt Along and check out what they have been up to.
Honestly, I did not get much hand sewing/quilting done. THe only thing I can truly take credit for is the binding on the back of this baby quilt. I find the hand sewing on the back very relaxing. It just so happens that this also Mo One monthly Goal Project. So to see all the fabulous project where people actually get stuff done, please visit all these lovely ladies who make way more progress than me on a regular basis.
theme. I pieced the back. This was my second time attempting this. It was supposed to have an orange piece at the bottom also, ut that did not go as planned. It is still OK, just a little odd, but tolerable.
she just jumped all over the quilt I was binding. The things that came out of my mouth. I will not repeat here. So, yes it has been washed.

She can not have the surgery because she would not survive it. The outlook is bad. Her husband texted me yesterday and told me to expect to need to come up later this week or next. My heart is breaking.
