Challenge

 

Don't forget ladies it's less than

3 weeks until the A4 challenge is due for

show and tell. I've had a sneak peek

at a couple and I'm [once again] amazed

at the different ideas people have.

 

Speaking of challenges, remember these,

and

Sampler Quilt With A Difference.

November 10th

is show and tell day for our quilt tops,

or maybe finished quilts.

Don't forget what a great display a group of

these would make at our quilt show.

Tell me this won't happen to us!!!!!

 

Three sisters aged 92, 94 and 96 live in a house together.

 

One night the 96 year old draws a bath. She puts her foot in and pauses.

 

She yells to the other sisters, "Was I getting in or out of the bath?"

 

The 94 year old yells back, "I don't know. I'll come up and see."

 

She starts up the stairs and pauses "Was I going up the stairs or down?"

 

The 92 year old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea listening to her sisters.

 

She shakes her head and says, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful," she knocks on wood.

 

She then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door."

More sewing

 

This week I have been sewing

more tumbling blocks,

another 4 peace cranes,

and the hand quilting of my

medallion quilt is done.

Now for the binding, and a sleeve so it can

hang at our quilt show. Only 6 months away.

Favorites

 

This week I ould like to show you

my current range of favorite

fabrics. I'd like to do something

with all of them.

of course the red is my favorite

favorite, but the grey and black

are also making me think

about what project I could use them in.

Maybe this could work.

I've been a little bit hooked on

shoo fly since we did it in the

''sampler quilt with a difference''

a few months ago.

Mystery Quilt

 

Not a lot of sewing this week,

busy with unbloggy things.

But I do have a finish.

 The mystery quilt that we did a few months ago
as a workshop.
Yes as the tutor I should have  had
my quilt finished before now but better
later than never.



 

I am having sooooo much trouble uploading

photos, You will just have to trust me, It is finished

and I am very pleased with the feather

border.

I need a young person to sort out this

 photo/computer/blogger problem for me.

just a reminder of what the quilt looked

like when we started.

A fantastic range of 26 different colours, all dotty.

Something for everyone, 3 reds for my latest

obsessionthat I'm trying to keep under control,
