Memory Lane - June/July

This block is called Flying X. It's ok, definitely not one of my favorites. This blanket is coming along nicely. I also worked on a lot of the border pieces today, the border is my favorite part of this blanket. That part is a surprise!

This block is called Swamp Angel. Now this one I like and it was very simple.

Somewhere in Time - COMPLETE


It's back from quilting! Isn't it beautiful? I absolutely love it. I am so proud of it. This is my first complete "bed Size" quilt.

June Block Swap


Here is the block I made for my June partner in New Jersey. I have received her block yesterday, but I haven't had a chanced to take a picture yet.
I will soon promise.
Here is the block I recieved. This is definitly one of the nicest blocks I have received in the 2 years I have been in the club. I have currently paused my membership with the club until my life slows down a little. Thanks Cherie for a great block!

May Block Swap


Happy Mother's Day! I am enjoying a nice quiet day in my sewing room. It's sunny and rainy outside - very interesting but soothing to look at from my room. I completed my May block - it's called Table for Four. The request was anything brightly colored. I like this fabric, I think I bought it for a bag. I have not been in any type of making a new bag mood, so I used it for this bright and very summery block. It is headed to Carrie in Washington state. Hope she likes.....
Here is the block I received. Thank you Carrie :-).

Jojo - 10 1/2 Months


It is absolutely amazing how innocent Jojo looks when he lays down or sleeps. My baby is almost 11 months old and boy is he big! We go to the vet this weekend so I will be able to share his weight in a few days. He had his eye surgery since my last post - he had entropia, it's an eyelash disorder common in Dane's and Saint Bernards. He looks 150% better, has completly recovered and is back to terrorizing the other dogs. Actually.... I think he terrorizes everyone and everything in my house.
