QOV #81 Finished

I completed the quilting on QOV #81. I have 2 more QOVs to quilt. Seems life is letting me quilt a bit.

Sucess

Not really big projects, but I did get some pillows made.
This is a photo of the grand kids pillows. At least the 5 that we are in contact with. The other 2 are no where to be found. Makes me sad....

This one is one of 3 for teachers. I need to get busy and get the other 2 done tonight, if at all possible.

This is one of those blocks I've always wanted to try. It is the Lady in the Lake block. I love using the daisy print and making it almost look like a basket. Can't wait to see this one together.

Sunday accountability

I had a productive week, even though I didn't use that much stash. I did get a few things crossed off my list. I made a love block for a dear lady, I also made 3 birthday blocks for a swap I'm in with the Birthday Runaways and a small wall hanging for our librarian to gift.
I also quilted a QOV - no fabric usage, but an item off the list. So, it was a busy week, but not much yardage.

Fabric usage goal (100 yards)--(95.57) yards to go
Fabric Added This Week -- 0 yards
Fabric Added Year to Date -- 20 yards
Fabric Used This Week --0.76 yards
Fabric Used Year to Date -- 23.18 yards
Fabric Used this month -- 0.76 yards
Net fabric used year to date: -4.43 yards

Judy is having us do the check in again this year. Accountability is a good thing!

Excitement

I have been playing Farmville and sorting scraps. I have too many scraps for my scrap bins. I've sorted by color and by cut pieces. Theseare overflowing. So, I decided to put all the pieces that would make good strings in my string bin.

I don't have any more scraps to sort, or at least I don't think I do. YES, I am caught up in one area.

Now to make more string quilts.

QOV #81

Finished quilting another QOV. Lots of different stars. I have 3 more here to finish and my QOV quilting will be done for the month.

busy week

I've been working on birthday blocks for a swap with the birthday runaways. There are 3 that go to different ladies, but could be mailed to one. So, I took advantage of that offer and did them all this month. All Churn Dash blocks, but some 9 inches and some 12 and some brights and some civil war. LOL So, they all look a little different.

Then, I did a quick wall hanging for the Fein Tuned group and think it turned out OK.

Then, I'm working on minkee pillows. What a mess that is. The fuzz is almost the size of the pillow. Can't leave the house when you work on these things. but, the feel wonderful and are a fun pillow for young girls.

I'm also loading a QOV, so that will be quilted soon.

Tammy's quilt finished

Boy, this quilt gave me fits. Well, not the quilt, but I think it was the thread. Sometimes it would work without issue and others would break every few inches. Yikes took me too long to do a large meander. This is a new bobbin case and I wonder if that is part of the problem. Anyway, I got it finished. YES!!!

I have to share with you DD's and my hair for Locks of Love. The one on the left is DD's hair and you will notice how thick it is. The scrawny one on the right is mine. LOL
