Some more rain and now warmer again:)

Hi all,

Got the heater checked out this week and I think the AC may be back on before the day is over... a cold front is due on wed and more rain... yea for us:( We got 2.5 in more last week. The ground has not dried yet:(

I got some quilting done and passed on Bee this week so I could work on my donation quilting a bit:)

First are the last 3 Spargo birds that I finished... only 3 more to go and they are all prepped:)

Brenda made this quilt on on the serger.

Interesting for sure!

I played with all the blocks:)

Looks great on the back:)

She also made this Civil War quilt.

Just loopd all over.

A good cuddle quilt!

Martha made this chemo quilt.

Just looped all over.

This top was donated to PL.

I couldn't just loop or stipple all over it was WAY too cute!!!

So it got a semi custom quilt:)

My chemo is quilted and trimmed just waiting for the binding...

Yesterday Hubby and I went to LaGrange to the Quilt Museum to see the Millifore and Kaffe display. The quilts were wonderful and there is a new quilt shop there.... Texas Quilt Barn. I found this fabric there and HAD to have some!!!! WAY too cute!!!

Home most of the week and with the weather changing midweek plan to get a few quilts done!

Have a great week ya'll!

We are fine here in Central Texas:)

Hi All,

The title has to do with all the rain we got this past week! My house for over 7.5 inches... the rain gauge ran over so I am not exactly sure of the true amount. Was a VERY wet dreary week for us! We were SO happy to see the sun yesterday and it is out fully today:) The lakes are all full plus more right now:)

I stayed home and quilted... unfortunately I got wet every time I went in and out of the studio:(  But it doesn't rain enough to make a covered walkway! Oh and the studio stayed dry:) Finally!!!

Okay on with pics:

Erlene made this Hexie Garden quilt:)

You guys know I have a love of everything Hexie... wonder if there is a support group for that?

I used 24 different thread colors:) The petals are feathers and there are white lines in the background. Turned out stunning!!!!

Brenda made a Turning Twenty baby quilt.

Just loops all over:)

Is a sweet baby quilt!

Ok now onto a new addiction:) It's called 5D diamond Painting.You get a kit that has all the beads, tools, and canvas in it from Amazon or Michaels. Then you peel back the clear plastic off of the canvas and it is super sticky. Pick up a bead with tool and place on the right square. It is truly addicting!!! 

Here is a kinda side view. I am halfway done with the second cat and have ordered another:)Yes I need something else to work on:) LOL!!!!

Hope everyone has an awesome week!!! I have a quilt loaded for tomorrow already:)

Normal Tx weather!

Meaning that one day it's in the 60's the next 80's and after a cold front passes through tonight the 40's:( UGH!!!! AC to heater all in one day... yup normal for TX!

I quilted a couple of days so not much to show here and went to Bee and got another Christmas gift almost finished:)

This is the second quilt from Tricia.

Very modern!

I quilted lines 1/4 in away and some in the ditch with matching thread. Kept it very linear!

Great backing!

Got a xstitch project ready for me for Christmas:)

This is what I worked on at Bee this week... it was a printed panel with horrible directions:( I was so glad to be sitting by someone that had sewn a lot of doll clothes:) Just some handwork to do and it will be done:)

Hubby's recliner is suppose to be delivered Tuesday afternoon:) YEA!!!

We have started prepping the kitchen cabinets for paint. Will need to construct a box type thing over the cabinets to fill it all in... there was paneling there when we moved in and I removed it all and displayed pretties for many years. I never realized all the extra cleaning you have to do:( So want to put that all back now but use bead board:) So if the weather is good next weekend we will get all our supplies and get started:) Would love to be all done with the kitchen by Christmas but not holding my breathe:) LOL!!!

Hope everyone has a great week and wear something warm!!!

Happy October:)

Well it didn't feel anything like Fall here this week... the humidity is up and so are the temps:( Keep that AC going!!!

Had a busy quilting week as you will see:)

Hubby moved MIL into the memory care part of her assisted living building. She is getting more acquainted with her own little world in her head. Still recognizes everyone but needs a bit more help. She was excited to get a new room and to also get to visit the courtyard she so wanted to:) Her kitty was able to move with her:)

Ok on  with the pictures:

Roseanne made this beautiful quilt with digital printed fabric.

The flowers were so life like!!!!

I did ruler work, lots of swirls in the background and then outlined a flower or 2 in each block:) Sure made the flowers pop!

3 more Spargo birds are done... 6 to go!

Tricia made this very modern quilt.

Of course it needed very modern quilting!!! I used 16 different thread colors:)

There are swirls, pebbles, and straight lines all over the place:)

This was a donated top given to Project Linus.

Love the kitties:) Just loops all over.

Another donated top.

Great applique and more loops all over.

The Steampunk quilt top is officially finished!!!!! Now it is in line to get quilted.... one day:)

And Millie is all done also... well except the quilting. That will be done when I am on Christmas break:)  Took me less then a year to make!

I am out 3 days this week so hope to get something quilted:)

The ragweed has been attacking me on a daily basis but keep taking drugs and pushing through! Suppose to be getting rain this week so hopefully that will help some!

Have an awesome week!!!
