Busy Busy week:)

Hi everybody,

Got a lot of things finished up this week:)

Janice's Kitty quilt... and yes I did give it back to her after I was finished quilting it... LOL!

Had lots of fun quilting curlz on each kitty with matching thread:) They each had such a personality!

She had embroidered Jerry in the corner... he is taunting the poor babies!

Gray backing so you can really see the quilting:)

Hard to see but I quilted paw prints in the other 3 corners:)

Rosette 11a all done... have started the 12s and then to sew it all together:)

My biggest finish is Andrea's memory quilt made with all of her dad's shirts and pants.

Was definitely a challenge and I am SO happy with the end result!!

Hubby is holding it up so you can see it better:)

Yes there are even socks!

This sis the back.... bowling fabric, a baseball panel and more shirt fabric to get it the right size.

Had more scraps leftover so made her 2 pillows for her sons:)

My goodies I bought at the Quilt House in New Braunfels. They had a great show there and of course we had to visit the local shop! We also went to a new place for lunch... Buttermilk Cafe. Food and service were great! This all took place on Saturday. It was a 2ish hour drive there and on the way back we HAD to stop for pie at the Bluebonnet Cafe in Marble Falls. A fun filled day with great friends!!!

Friday was Bee and I will show you the steampunk blocks I got sewn after I get the centers on them:)

Poor Calli goes in for surgery on Thursday and the rest of the time I will be quilting:)

Have an awesome week!!!

Oh we are getting a cold front in tomorrow... temps drop in the 90's:)

I was wrong... 100++++ degrees all week:(

UGH!!! It is WAY TOO hot!!!! I am trying to keep some of the grass and the plants alive. Also Fuzzy has been coming in everyday... the other 2 will not:( I have seen them both panting:( Have been giving them fresh cool water twice a day... poor babies!!! Suppose to be more this coming week:(
This is the time in Texas I am NOT a happy camper!!!!

At least I was home all but one morning and I got back as soon as I could! But we do need to eat:) LOL!

So since I was here I got a lot done... I mean a lot!!! Wait for picture overload!!!

Dolly made 2 Judy Niemeyer runners. This is the first one.

Lots of pebbles....

back shows some of the quilting. Was definitely a different one but liked the way it turned out!

I would try to make one of these but that would be about as big as I would go:)

The second one.

Lots of echoing and feathers:)

Love the spring colors!

Backing shows some of the quilting.

Remember if you click on the picture it will give you a bigger picture:)

Brenda made this jelly roll race quilt.

Its all about lemonade:)

Just loops all over in a hot pink.

Also Brenda's. Very patriotic!

Used a red, white, and blue variegated thread and did loops and stars all over.

Love the backing fabric!!!

Another Rosette finished .... almost done:)

Pulled the cobwebs off Bianca and got some embroidery done. The #2 grand daughter will start dance next month and wanted a bag like her sissy except all purple. Turned out really cute!!! Just saw Bob's feet:) He has been staying in a lot:)

A chemo quilt I made is all done:)

The center is a panel... there was a kit and they were to be cut up but it was suggested to just use the panel:) Loops all over in black thread.

A Project Linus quilt made by Jamie's friend is all done.

Cute!

Stipple and outlining without a ruler.

Another from the friend.

Loops and stars on the top and stipple on the bottom.

Great boy quilt!

Yes another one:)

Just stippled all over... love the backing... Precious Moments.

Another chemo I made from a  kit from our We Care Bee.

It is Too cute!!! Just loops all over.

Bianca has been doing more embroidery but has been a pain at times! Think I may have the problem figured out and it is probably user error:( I will not give up even though I did threaten to trade her in:) I have NEVER had a machine give me SO much grief! She will not win!!!

Another hot week is scheduled and I am home 3 1/2 days so hope to get at least 1 quilt done and a bit more embroidery if SHE cooperates:) LOL!!!

Stay cool and keep sewing:)

100 degrees for the whole week:(

Well July has finally arrived! I remember having these high temps as early as May and June some years but I think it will be here to stay for awhile:( We did get teased earlier..... Oh well we are always thankful for James Carrier and the invention of the air conditioner!

Have no idea where the week went!!!
Monday I quilted.
Tuesday the plumbers came and went and came again:) The faucet I bought was broken and they needed a part that was not on their truck. So I ran to get it exchanged and get the correct drain. By the end of the day it was done:)
Wednesday was sick all day:(
Thursday errands all day! Had to get more items to finish off bathroom and Calli went to vet for the first time. Now that was a hoot! She was rather pissed off about having to go and actually flipped around inside the carrier. The vet tried to calm here with a sprayed towel... nope she was not having that. So she finally did the scootch and pull and was able to give her her shots. She is about 6 months old and was NOT pregnant!!! Of course she did not even come to me until I was asleep in bed... about 13 hours later. She is scheduled for her surgery and booster shots all on the same day... August 2:)
Friday my Bee went on a field trip:) We traveled to Rosebud to visit the newly enlarged quilt shop called Fabric Barn. There was a sweet consignment shop next door. We had lunch at HWY 77 Cafe. Our car of 5 went on to Waco PHD to shop a bit more:) Was lots of fun and giggles!! I only bought 5 fat quarters... not really needing anything right now:) I know not a good reason not to buy:)
Saturday... hubby and I finished up the bathroom. There is still some touch up painting to do and the door face needs painting and a knob put on but we are using it:)
So there went the week!!!! This week I am home all week except one day:) So hopefully more quilting!!!!

And Bob is letting you know that this is the raffle quilt for the Temple Wildflower Quilt Guild:)

They let me play and boy did I!!!

Very custom! Just love how it turned out!!!

Backing. I will let you know when the tickets go on sale:)

Here is Rosette #10B... almost done:)

Sewed the side borders on the memory quilt today.

It needed to be wider so I cut pieces of the leftover shirts.

It is now 64x89. Now I get to order the backing fabrics:)

And TADA!!!! The bathroom remodel:)

View when you walk in.

Vanity top and light.

Vanity bottom.

Curtain I sewed... hubby picked the fabric from some pics I sent:)

So all in all a VERY busy week and I do have things to show for it:) YEA!

Hope everyone has a great week and if you are in Texas stay cool!!!! Remember to hydrate!
