Conroe

Well, it has been an interesting vacation.

The place is not as well set up as it was the last time we came here.

It was not as clean as it should have been.

The A/C is not working as well as it should.

The WIFI went down and it took them 2.5 days to fix it.

But, all that being said, it has been a great quilting week.

My machine set up on the dining room table.

All the extra bags under the table out of the way.

The collapsible containers under the bar holding all the items which I brought to work on.

Wayyyyyy too much to finish, but it is a good thing I had it.

Some of the items have instructions on the internet and I didn't have access to them. 

Computer set up at the bar with my diffuser connected. 

Cutting table is a bit low, but I'm not doing long term cutting.

See the design wall over there in the hall?

It makes me walk around to get things up and down from the wall. :) 

APocketfulofMysteries (APFOM) Block of the Month.

I had A-J done a few years ago.

I finished K-Z and found 4 additional blocks already made, so I used them in the corners.

This is the final arrangement in Alpha order, except for the 4 corners.

Decided on brown sashing and lime green corner stones

I have the scrappy binding made from leftover pieces used in the quilt.

This is the trimmed off pieces from quilting for 1 day.  

Hummingbird quilt is into top format.

It is a very simple setting, because I only had 9 blocks.

I also made the binding out the blue I used to frame the blocks. 

This is the Irish star pillow sham that I am making 2 of.

I need to quilt it and that is better done on the long arm.

I need to make a second one of these.

Then comes the pillows because of the lack of internet to work on something else. 

This is actually a pocket in the center.

I love this fabric. 

I had some snowflake embroidery that I made pillows from.  

I think I like the one with mostly blue.

I'm only using the fabrics I brought with me, so I'm doing what I can. 

My green monkey hanging from the curtains.

Next were making two banners.

I did the embroidery at home and brought them with me.

That is all purple fabrics. 

Both of these are names that would not normally find anything spelled correctly.

I like the way they came out, even with the LONG name. :) 

I need to put a tie on one end and button on the other.

This is for DD's dorm curtains to allow them to keep them open without causing problems with the things in front of them.

I forgot the hair band and the button, so I'll finish it at home. 

This is a little shamrock bear pillow case. 

The Flamingo Pillow. 

The Yellow Finch Pillow. 

Redwork flowers into a pillow.  

More Redwork. 

Snowman redwork pillow.

This is all I've been up to since Saturday evening.

DH has been doing the cooking and feeding me well.

We've been out a couple of times.

I think he gets cabin fever a bit quicker than I do.

I hope the internet stays up and I can update a little at a time instead of all at once.
