Latest UFO finish

Just how many quilts can I get out of that one shoebox of small tumblers?


Package to Minnesota

Today I mailed a package to Minnesota for the August project for All Crafts for Charity. There were 2 pairs
of slippers, and 3 pairs of socks.

Package to Texas

Yesterday I mailed out a package to Texas for Parkland Hospital in Dallas. Included were: 3 machine knit baby blankets, 3 baby hats, 3 baby sockies, 15 drawstring bags and 20 sets of bereavement diapers.

A Good Start to the Week

A finish already this week - and I'd say it's about time. How long ago did I make this top? I don't want to think about it. I had to use one of my queen size batts for this with quite a bit left over. Oh well. It's done and I'm glad of it.

Two Finishes this Week

Made myself a new rule - until I get some (maybe all) of these durn tops finished and off the railing. I will spend a minimum of 30 minutes a day on quilting and 30 minutes a day on binding, making backs, getting the batting ready. I will try very hard not to start a new quilting project. Like most of my rules, I am hoping to be able to keep it up.
I was able to finish a Warm Wishes and a blue (with a touch of yellow) Drunkards Path. I saw his setting somewhere - I'm calling mine 'Traffic Circles'.
