What a weekend! Between gaming and stitching I was busy. It was productive though. I managed to finish both of my projects for Quilting in the New Year and even managed to pick out the material and pattern for next months project. I only have one to do for next month so that will be good. I also signed up today for the June 2011 doll quilt swap. I am hoping to be able to learn a couple of new blocks and use them in doll quilts. At least it will be something that I use them for and not just throwing them away or something.
Now for the pictures. Some of you might have seen these already but not everybody. Here we go:
This one is the finished table runner for Tealfalcon. It was a little long to get the whole picture in but I think you should be able to see the purple binding that I used on it. I finished it last night while chatting with my friends Shelley and Casey on IM as well as listing to a quilting webinar over the computer.
This is a close up of the center block which might give you a better idea.
The other project was the snow lady one. I might have posted it before but here it is just in case.
Like I said, I also picked out the pattern for next months swap. I have a person who just said she would like a small wall hanging but not Fourth of July or any holiday one.
I will be using these fabrics:
These two fabrics didn't scan as well but they are a green, similar to olive green, and an off white/cream with a pattern on it.
The pattern that I will be using will be ONE block of this. I will use fusible for it to help speed it up for I have a couple of more projects all lined up that need to be done also.
That's all for this blog. I'll continue after I get back from taking pictures at a retirement party for a couple of people from work.
This will be the place where I chat about my life. Most of the time it will be about my crafts like quilting or cross stitch but it will also be about my gaming and family life.
