What are you working on?

My angels had trees in it too.
Not sure they go together.
I think I'm going to make a table runner out of the angels.
Maybe pillows out of the trees? 
My animal panels are cut, and I think I'm going to add string blocks as alternate blocks.
I need to use u some of my strings, and hope I have some Christmas colors to use.
there are two more My whimsical garden blocks.
Guess two more pillows are in line for them. 
I really want the Monkey n round sashing done so I can move forward on this quilt.

I'm still working on my magazines.
A few more out the door, even though it's hard to tell.

Patriotic quilt quilted

Nice gently meander with stars

Not a large quilt, but it is quilted.
My body needed some movement.

Happy Easter

slow weekend

I am having a hard time being motivated.  
I think it might be too much going on. 
 But, I have started quilting the patriotic quilt and hope to get it done before I start on anything else.
Wish me luck.

15 Minutes spiff up

Last week was going through my magazines.


I had a bigger pile, but it is not that much different this week.
Instead of just rushing through it, I decided to take my time and enjoy the process.
I am looking and really reading articles and such.
I bought them at one time.
I found a 1995 magazine that was really fun to look through.
I didn't keep it, but I enjoyed it.
I am making a pile to pass on and putting the ones I want to keep in magazine holders.

This week our challenge is:
Time to tame those scraps! 
These two places are where my scraps are.
My strings are beginning to overflow.
The best way to tame them would be to actually use them. 
My other scraps are separated mainly by color.
I do have pre-cut items by size of the cut.
They are fairly organized.
I'm not totally sure what I'll do with this challenge.
Again, the best organization would be to use them.
I do use them, but anything else that is done creates more scraps, so it is a never ending story.

Prairie Moon Organization challenge

I finished my nearest to completion UFO
I love this quilt.
It might go in my spare bedroom

The challenge for this week is:

Eradicate a pile

I have a few piles in the room.
I was thinking this one to the left of my sewing machine would be nice to have gone.
I find I push things off when I am working on a large quilt.
This should not take a long time, but will add some peace to my space.

Lovely Year of finishes

I want to quilt and bind my tulip trio quilt.  
I have the whole quilt under there, but am unable to open it up right now.
Shoulder problems, so I need to get help to start this process.
