I received a fun pincushion from Victoria yesterday.
Chocolate, Shamrock pincushion, note pad, and a pattern.
Thank you for the wonderful package.
This is so much fun with Beaquilter.

Design Wall Monday
So, what is this all about?
I'm so close with borders on two quilt to finish, but they are both not on the design wall.
Let Me Surprise You by Charlotte Angotti is pinned and ready to sew.
I got a phone call and had to drop everything.
The frog quilt is getting it's silver border before I add a purple one to it.
The far design wall has things from the Houston Quilt Festival, still
There's the purple for the frog quilt and the Shenandoah fabrics.
I need lots more of the long pieces.
I'm linking to Small Quilts Doll Quilt's Design Wall Monday and Monday Makings.

Quilting is more fun than Housework has us working on scraps.
I'm still working on the Frog quilt.
I am ready to put on the borders.
It's been a difficult weekend with death in the families of friends.
I did get the label digitized.

2020 UFO & other challenges
January - #2 Fish Bowl
February - #9 Ashley's T-shirt quilt
I know I won't get this one done this month.
She has changed her mind on what some of the shirts she wants in the quilt.
So, with a little coaxing, maybe I'll be able to get some of it done.
I have the design and some shirts prepped, but not all.
March - #7 Courthouse Steps
HCMQG
January - #9 Ashley T-shirt Quilt
See above
February - #Mount Rushmore
February - #22 Diamond EPP
I finished the project from Houston Quilt Festival and didn't know what to do with it.
So, I put it on a towel.
March - #21 Art Glass - Ashley's quilt
March - #31 Wolf Pack panel quilt
Stashbuster
January #6 6.5" 9 patches
January #66 Fish Bowl Quilt
February - #10 Adorn It
The adorn it was cut and there was leftover of the print.
I wasn't exactly happy with the first on, but I like the way the second came out.
I still had one square of the fabric left, so I'm making a small quilt from it.
I don't need more pillows,
I'm not sure what I'm doing with this yet, but I'll figure it out.
February - #99 Karen's Hexagon Quilt
February - #199 Yellow 9 Patches
As it turns out, I only had one yellow 9-patch in the UFO bag.
There was lots of the yellow fabric leftover, but I didn't like how it would look, so I made it into a bobcat pillow.
DD's school colors are gold and maroon.
March - #8 A Heritage Quilt
March - #24 Blue/Green Mini 9 Patches
March - Map of Texas Lone Star State
The Color Challenge
February - Orange
March - Yellow
Gift Giving
February - Pillowcases to NICU
March -
Read a Book
February - Blame it on Scotland by Patience Griffin
It Happened in Scotland by Patience Griffin
I have enjoyed the Kilts and Quilts series for an easy read, fun and an escape to Scotland.
The Seamstress by Allison Pittman
This was a well-written book that was a spin-off from A Tale of Two Cities.
Kilt in Scotland by Patience Griffin
It is the latest one of the series and was just as good as a murder mystery.
March -
Patchwork Times Learn Something New
February - Learn something new on the Embroidery Machine
I'm still learning this big machine.
I've been able to troubleshoot some items this month, so I am more comfortable with it.
March - Learn more about the new small sewing machine.
February/March - Ashley's Stonehenge Quilt
I have more than that done, but I can't find a photo.
Since I didn't finish it in February, I'll work on it in March.
