A productive week.

I have 14 small quilts done and another 11 blocked in.
This small flower quilt looks as good from the
 back as the front. I love all the colors of spring.
Once I complete the 25 smalls I will start the
large ones that will ground the show.
I also made 3 sets of throw pillows for my chairs.

I am glad I take photos of my flower gardens and

the birds to give me points of interest for my quilts.

The quilt with the red chairs will get a lot of hand 

embroidery with multi-colored flowers.

I am finding that I cannot do it at night anymore.

The lights are just not bright enough.

Everyone have a great week end,

Kaffe tote

I was thinking back to when I made this tote

for Virginia Spiegel's fund raiser last year.

I love  Kaffe Fasset fabrics;

The are bright and cheerful.

When I am done with the big quilt I must

play with his fabrics again.

Today was massage day and shopping

day. I filled the car. I needed something

to put my ironing board on and found 2 nice

sturdy plastic 4 drawer chest at Walmart.

They alone filled the back space of the car.

Found some bright shorts and shirts for

my great grandson. He will be 2 next month.

Than I bought 2 large tubs to fill with fiber

for the local collage art department. I am

cleaning a 8 by 11 ft closet and I am determined

to make it emptier. It is always fun to see

what those bright young people do with fiber.

Year of Art

 Finished my donation to the Year of Art sponsored

The messenger bag

 I love all the colorful fabric that Fassett uses.

I am working on the messenger bag that along with

the book of Fassett's autobiography I will donate to the

Year of Art. the American Cancer Society fund

raiser that Virginia Spiegel is sponsoring.

 I almost like the lining better than the outside.

This is fun working with such great fabrics.

I changed the pattern to put the pockets on the

inside instead of outside. Less chance of things

falling out. So far there are 5 pockets on the

inside and 2 pockets on the outside. A

gal can never have enough places to put things.

I just may have to make myself one of these.
