So here is my Jinny Beyer Harlequin Charm top done, just need to attach the mitered borders. I never buy kits, so this has been a fun departure. I think I will hand quilt this? We shall see.

Get a beverage and enjoy the sunset.....
These pictures don't do the spectacle justice, it was so beautiful! Hope your day was just as stunning. I'm bow tie-ing....what a lovely day.
Whooee! Snow Day
Better late than never! Sunshine this morning......quit service early, slid into my driveway (a controlled slide) made up my mind to stay home, then our Bible study called and cancelled! So now I'm in my fleece Mickey Mouse shirt, looking for a book!
We had a big, intrepid group out, but by noon, most were back at the KH collecting cars.......

My favorite kind of day!
What a difference three hours makes. The first picture was taken at 7:30, the last at 11:45. Beautiful both times.

....
I spent a great morning with Jane and got my first, yes you heard right....my first block all stitched down. Whoo hoo!! Four months but if i would have shut up maybe you wouldn't have remembered. Hehe. Also added to my bow ties! I love, love, love how these turn out. Going to need fifty gazillion to finish but the journey is very fun. I hear that is what it is all about.
Exciting meeting ahead......see ya there! :0)

Long overdue project done!
My nephew is only four! These were blocks signed by people at his baby shower. I sewed them into a quilt and got the binding done this morning.
The close up is my block from the shower.

Addicting!
It's growing. Not fast but really fun. I'm afraid you will have to keep watching this grow because I just wanna see the pattern unfold.
Happy Anniversary, Bud and Jeannie!
Yep, that's today! Maybe we should all give them a call to congratulate them. <3
I did a little scrounging online to find some pics. Congrats, you two!

Ok, I'm goosed out! But they are made and paired. Still have to cut the 3 1/2 in. Squares from the end of part 4. Then onto part 5. Whew! It's a bit of work to get caught up!

So I'm still a bit behind, but I have parts one thru three completely done. The 64 geese from part 4 are stitched, just need final pressing and trimming. I don't know how they'll all go together, but I laid out a "block" that we **might** do?!
How's everyone else doing?

shaded 4 patch
Finally got to use color in mine. Linda you were right, they were fun to do! Also had a wonderfull day in service with the Norvells. It even stopped raining! :D)
Part Three Done
Whoa, I'm done!!! I enjoyed making this block, but need to get the seams the same, so there all the same size. Or I am doing something terribly wrong
Invitation
Linda, I didn't mean to leave you out of service arrangements! If you're not working, come join us...... that includes any and all who are not working! And for you hard-working sisters, my sympathy and we'll see you on the weekend! I'll try to take notes and share what he teaches us!
