I have 4, at least, projects all set up on my table, embroidery machine set up and quilting My Town. Yes, I’m still working on it, but it is my refuge when I just want to relax as playing with applique iron ons is just plain FUN!
My little Janome is set up to sew on borders for a Round Robin top to go in the mail next week, hopefully. I’m having trouble deciding what borders and fabric I want to use, very indecisive!
I also have my Bird In A Nest (stay at home round robin) that I am hostessing, set out and deciding fabrics what I want to use as the first border. Two 1 yard quilts and material in bags that I need to work on for the guild. And finish making 6 blocks for Secret Sister for the year. And that is all I will admit to at the moment, though there are probably a couple of others sitting there.
I have been trying to sew a little each day, but I am feeling a little overwhelmed. Not from the projects, but the hot early weather, and my legs and right hip have been bothering me somewhat, again the weather.
I have my massage this morning, maybe that will invigorate me and make me want to get in there and finish something!
Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is Donna. My hubby and I are retired. We have twin daughters and are blessed with 4 grandchildren. We are owned by a cat, Purrl. who loves to supervise and is very nosy.
I have been quilting since 1996. In addition to making quilts for my family and friends, I also make charity quilts for Marjoree Mason Center and Valley Children's Hospital. Marjoree Mason Center is a local organization here that helps and supports battered and abused women and children get out of abusive relationships. Every Christmas I make several baby quilts for the women, with a small stuffed animal or toy.
I also belong to the San Joaquin Valley Quilters' Guild here in Fresno. Since I retired, I have been trying to finish most of my UFOs, but my stash is way out of control! I have lately gotten into designing quilts and enjoy that even more than sewing them! I love colors of all types and consider myself to be a true scrappy quilter and I do love playing with designs.
I am the owner/moderator of Scrappy Quilters on Facebook, where we are very active with many mystery quilts, challenges and swaps. I welcome you to come by and check us out at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ScrappyQuilters.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope to see you again soon.
