Dear Jane is quilted

This quilt was embroidered by a dear friend of mine, Vicki.  I've had it for a long time because it scared me to quilt it.  But, I finally had someone suggest stippling between the blocks to outline them.  Then, I did feathers in the wedges.  I like it.  It feels good to have it done.

No photos right now because I can't find my battery charger and it won't let me take any photos or download them.  :(

I will be focused and should have plenty of stash usage to report.

I did make water bottle holders for teacher appreciation week. (can't get the photo to turn.)

So, if I'm missing action, I'm busy with the end of school activities and quilting.  I hope.

Jo Morton Sisters

Forgot to show what I did in my Jo Morton's class

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.
