Christmas Trees




They are all done.
I finished the binding today while at the doctor office.

Prairie Moon Challenge

Eradicate a pile
My room is a mess again.
DD decided to clean her room to the floor and then start band camp two days later.
You know what that means --- stuff all over the place.
This pile is probably just boxes and containers.
I think those containers are going under the long arm.
Go check out Prairie Moon and her challenges.

Music quilt

I was quilting along and all was well with the silver thread.  Then it started breaking.  Clean the machine, oil the machine, let's try a different needle.  No joy. Start ripping out the swirls.  Why does it take longer to rip than sew?  Hope to get this ripped out today.
It could have been ready to bind.

Road Quilt is done.

My road quilt was my July Lovely Year of Finishes Quilt.
I finally found the time to load it and quilt it.  
I did not custom this one.
It is a donation quilt that I'll add matchbox cars to the package and donate to Autumn Winds for their Fall Bazaar.

Weekend update

DD decided to rearrange her room, so I didn't get focused on my stuff.
I friend gave me her leftovers for dog beds and pillows. 
Out of her stuff, these went into the string bin. 
I'm helping with a GS Gold award by quilting this quilt.
Need to find backing for it and get it quilted and back to her. 
Finished one of the Christmas Tree Wall Hangings.
It will get some decorations when I ind them.
I think I might have some in my craft drawers.

I quilted the rest of the Christmas Tree Wall Hangings.
Now to get the binding sewn down.

T-shirt Quilt

I realized I never showed you the finished T-shirt quilt.

Design Wall

It's not much, but a start
This was one that was having blocks framed twice.
I think I received this from someone else.
It was going to be something akin to Gypsy Wife, but the blocks are too big.
I pulled the smaller, non-framed blocks off for later.
I'll use some of my already cut strips to frame the 6 blocks and then decide which two are next to each other.
i'm sure I have some pretty fall fabric for borders.
