Towels

This is a non-quilting UFO.

It is an embroidery UFO.

I had these towels that I needed to digitize something for.

That was 18 months ago.

Finally got the embroidery machine back and had a block of time to stitch them out.

Then, onto the towels I sewed the ribbon.

It was actually a fun project and it will be out of my house soon.

Can I get it down to no quilts ready to quilt?

I used one of my bonus blocks for the quiltie swap we are doing.

Slow week because of the Freshman New Student Orientation.

But, we now have a new Bobcat with a schedule she likes.

Check out quilt paint create stash reports.

embroidery quilt

I quilted Tammy's quilt today.

I love the embroidery on this quilt.

It can be in the mail on Monday.

update

I've at new student orientation with DD the last two days, so nothing got done.

Before I left I did a WITB

Interesting, a broken bag and.... 

 

cereal and stuff from the old college,.... 

papers and crafting stuff. 

Linens and papers to file. 

I did a few more baby clothing patches 

current design wall with the ones I've made.

Many more to go.

Went to the dentist yesterday.

The broken tooth is OK.

I don't have pain, and the roots are doing fine.

I need a cap, so that will be done on the 23rd.

Not exactly fun, but it is better news than I thought.

WITB

Remembered to take photos.

This is a mixture of stuff.

Crocheting hooks, music, photos.... 

These are from 2002. 

That's me in uniform. 

See, quilting was in my life back then.

Put the photos away to be able to deal with them soon.

Put the other things in their places.
