Been quilting a little

My Mom had a fall and broke her shoulder, so I've not had lots of extra time.  I did quilt 2 quilts this past weekend.  This is a going away gift, and I quilted leaves on it.

This one is QOV #94 that I've had for a month.  :(  I really need to get the second one finished and mailed back to the maker)

I saw this pattern and thought I'd see if I could modify it for a baby quilt.  I used only fabrics from my scrap bin.  They are cut 2.5" and sewn end to end.  I like the way it went together and all the different colors are exciting.  Now to get it quilted and delivered. (the baby is already here)

Today DD is home sick with stomach problems.  So, I am quilting and trying to get caught up.  Will that ever happen???

Judy is the one to motivate us, and I so appreciate it. Been quilting, but have not updated much.

Not much quilting going on, but I've been able to use some for backings for Angel Cover Ministries .
I need to start piecing, because I have lots of quilts to finish before the end of May.

It feels good

 I've not done much piecing, but I have quilted 4 quilts for Angel Cover Ministries .

They had these donated and their machine is not large enough to be able to quilt them.  It felt great to quilt again.

I quilted this one for Sandy down the street.  The sheep and clouds are so cute.

I quilted clouds and they puff out some.  Cute.

Tomorrow is my Jo Morton's class.  I hope I have all the things cut for it.  I get to go on a retreat with the Jo's club in April.  What a fun time.

DD's first quilt

DD is working on her Quilting Interest Project for Girl Scouts.  She needs to finish this quilt and she will have this one earned.  :)  She used some of the string blocks to put together this baby quilt top for the Wilford Hall Maternity Ward.

Angel Cover Ministries

DD and I went down to Angel Cover Ministries to see what we could do to help.  This ministry touches many children that are fighting their own battles.  She uses the help of others to make a difference in lives of children in the area.  Sylvia is a wonderful person to visit with.  DD and i so enjoyed our time there.  We came home with bears and lions to stuff and 4 quilts to finish quilting for them.

DD is talking about using this venue as a way to work on her Girl Scout Silver award.  That makes me proud.

not much quilting going on

Well, I must say I am at a stalemate.  I have so much other activities happening in my life that I'm hardly touching my passion.  I did make a couple of birthday blocks.

 

 

I also made Valentine pillows and table runner for DD's teachers

  

I quilted this for a friend.  I love the colors.

I have so much more I want to do and so little time.  Once February is over and Girl Scout cookie season is done, I think I'll have a bit more time.

a bit of good news is DH is coming home in April so I can go on a Jo Morton's retreat.  I am SOOOO excited I can't wait.

Off to a GS meeting and then home to clean up and get ready to substitute at the school tomorrow.

 

QOV finsihed

I finally for the the last QOV finished today.  I'll be able to mail it off on Tuesday.
I feel good to finish something.
