I flung myself to the final Rise and Shine class this morning. It was a lot of fun visiting with friends and show and tell of our tops. One gal already had her top finished and quilted but not entirely done. The wording, Quilts Have Stories, had not been added yet. Me, my top isContinue reading “FRIDAY MORNING THOUGHTS”

Guild Auction Aftermath
A little bit long. UFO List. Oh, what fun. When we had the auction earlier this month, I went through all of my UFOs and my list has changed dramatically! While I was purging, I decided that some of the UFOs on my list I really did not want to work on and several wentContinue reading “Guild Auction Aftermath”

MY TOWN, AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE, HISTORY
My therapy quilt is finally finished. When I first started this top, about 4 years ago, it was just going to be a simple wall hanging with 3 rows of houses. Nice, cute, sweet. But it wasn’t my best work. So it sat and marinated for a few years and finally, back in March (?)Continue reading “MY TOWN, AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE, HISTORY”
AUGUST CHALLENGE, JUST FINISH IT!
I set a goal of finishing and/or flimsifying 12 projects by the end of August. There might be a few more than that and that doesn’t include kits.
