The last time I shared this project, I had these four blocks done.
By the time the grand dogs went home, I had 12 done.
I’m feeling a bit underwhelmed here. Maybe it’s too busy? Maybe it needs more blocks. I like it better if I tilt my head to see what it looks like on point.
Hmmm…. I think this is going into time out for now.
Have a great day!
We’ve gone to the dogs around here. They all want to go on Sniffari.
But first, Penny needs a nap.
Looks like Charlie and Slinky do as well. They belong to Daughter #2.
Milo was excited for his Sniffari.
Gracie thought he needed his face washed first. Penny was glad to help.
Winslow thinks she is the boss and does her best to keep everyone in line.
Winnie ignores all the hooligans.
Penny was feeling spicy!
And that has been my life lately with the grand dogs and our own.
Have a great day!
I’m still tumbling, but it’s been too hot to do much else in the lapidary department.
Some of my grand dogs!
My current read. The main character reminds me so much of my sweet MIL. I miss her.
And this is SO true!
Have a great day!
My leader/ender/leftover project is done and I’m quite pleased with it.
The color transitions are not perfect, but I was working with leftovers.
Penny decided to help with photos.
I love this backing fabric! I knew one day I’d find the perfect place to use this.
The wind complicated picture taking, but it looks nice with my neighbor’s bougainvillea.
Have a great day!
This is still one of my most favorite quilts I’ve ever made! Enjoy!

Today’s finish is a big one! I’m happy to say my Gwennie Inspired Medallion from the QAL is finally done!
While most people made wall or throw sized quilts, I added enough borders to make mine fit my queen bed. The problem with making big quilts is trying to get good photos. The slightest breeze does this:
Ugh!
Here are some detail shots.
I’m really glad I went back and added more appliqué to the center block.
I used a plain backing and the quilting shows up beautifully.
It fits my bed perfectly!
Now it is ready to send off to Lori at Humble Quilts for the First Friday show in Oregon in May. I just have to find a really big box.
Have a great day
A huge thanks for all the well wishes on our new grandson! He is truly amazing.
Remember a while back when I mentioned my quilt groups UFO exchange? Well, this is what I brought home.
Not my normal choice of colors, but I do like it.
The pattern is called Cathedral Star by Linda Ballard Designs.
The big blocks were already done! This should be a fun project, when I get around to it.
Have a great day!
…..holding my new grandbaby to be quilting. So here are a few random star quilts made a long time ago. Enjoy!
I have had this photo pinned for ages. I thought it was a Kaffe Fasset design, but maybe it’s a rug? I couldn’t follow it to the source.
Anyway, when I found this stripe in my stash, I decided to play with it a bit.
So far, I’ve just cut some random strips. I’m hoping I’ll get a chance to play with these soon.
Have a great day!
Just four little quilts done this month, but a finish is a finish!
Have a great day!
Yep, I’m busy, busy!
Don’t you feel this way sometimes?
In case you need a good dad joke…
Our skies have been just stunning lately!
The partial lunar eclipse was pretty cool too.
Have a great day!
