Check...

Well I have been getting a few things checked off my "to do"list.  I am happy with the smaller version of the whimsicals pattern.  I started piecing this one a looonnngggg time ago.  I got it out again and was just anxious to get it done.  It had other borders and more blocks....anyway...Now we just need some quilting.
 I spend the day on wed in my sewing room.  I had purchased some fabric at the quilt show a couple weeks ago and used some of it up.  It will just be a really simple quilt to hang on a ladder in my kitchen.


 
This afternoon was spent in the kitchen.  Decorating eggs.
 I wrapped them with cheesecloth before I dunked them.  I love how they turned out.
I hope you had a good day today.  I am throwing a surprise party for a friend on wed.  I hope she has a
good time.   Now off to do the binding on the nine patch.      bye for now.

It sure has been awhile....

Well, how have you all been?  It has sure been a long time since my last post.  I have been checking in on you all.  I just haven't felt like I had anything to say. 

Today however, is a new day.  My husband and I always attend the Lake FarmPark Quilt show every year.  My mom and her bestfriend often go with us.  Today was a fun day.  I loved so many of the quilts that were on exhibit.  But this one stole my heart.  I read the label and she saw this quilt in a shop and knew she has to make it....but she doesn't mention the artist or the shop.  The label said Juley Sirianni made this one.  I just looooovvve it. If anyone knows the original artist and how I could get the pattern please let me know.

 This one was also stunning.  I unfortunatly I didn't get the name of the maker of this lovely one.
 I have been working on this beautiful wallhanging by Whimsicals.  This one makes my heart happy.
 I had started this one quite a while back and like way too many of my projects.....it too was set aside.  I got it out last week and put some more together.  I just have the two big churn dash blocks to go.  I don't think I want it to be as big as the original.  I might leave off the top and bottom rows, and just do a simple border.  I just want to get it done before I loose ambition again.
Thanks for stopping by.  I hope all is going well for you.  I hope you enjoyed your visit and will join me again.                                                                                              Lisa
