FEBRUARY 2011
First thing I got done this month was basting the ABC quilt from 7-8 years ago==
took me 5 1/2 hours to baste!!!
Decided to do a blanket stitch with emb floss around all the letters--
and the leaves on the center row__-
am waiting on more emb floss--so started actually doing the hand quilting on the rows that are ready--
This one row of large centered blocks--I did cats in the center of 4 blocks and a heart in the center of the the 5 th one
Joined the bom at Sue's--
And Feb block is done--
Working on the Bliss fabric line of hexagon flowers--
Have gotten a total of 18 done so far--
Another UFO finish--
red and white yo-yo quilt--started 2 years or so ago--finished for now!!!
New items purchased this month--
New bom for 2011--called Black and White--
January block--
February's block--
and March's block already in and done!!!
Did Shell's bom for Jan and added some beads--really like it!!
and have decided to do the Home Sweet Home one--
but I need a honey bun or need to use another collection as it takes only 1 1/2 inch strips!!!
this is my own design--center has an embroideried saying on it that is mine--
am using up a honey bun roll to do this one!!
