I wish I knew how to do these links like everyone else does. This is a great giveaway so I thought I would try.

hexagon quilt and ufo's




I made 2 quilt tops in 2002 and put them away. They were the ones that I worked on in Doctors offices,cancer treatment centers etc when my husband was being treated for the cancer that took his life later that year. I pulled the flower pot one out a year or so ago and quilted it for my youngest daughter. I just realized that I posted about the flower pot one last yearalso!
I have the other one out now and as soon as I go get some more batting I am going to finish it. I think it has to be handquilted.
It is a hexagon made with freezer paper. I am showing part of the front and part of the back. It is going to my oldest daughter. Any suggestions on quilting it?

Where have I been?






I don't know! I had so much going on this summer and so much company I was overwhelmed. I am hoping to get back in the groove now though.



My sister that was staying in my sewing room is on her feet now and just got her own place so I have my room back!



I went to a local festival today and it was sure different than last year! A lot less venders and not nearly as crowded. I was very disappointed in the amount of crafts and wasn't tempted to buy anything.



I just finished a t-shirt quilt for my niece. It is made from my late mom's t-shirts. It is kind of crinkly but I think she will like it. Now maybe I can resume my normal life!
