2008-5



This is the second Stitch 'N Sisters quilt-November 2004. Yet another top that has been sitting awaiting backing/quilting/binding. The pattern is by Buggy Barn and called Blaze's Heart. The fabric selection, as usual, was chosen by Pat Wys, the "sister superior" and excellent as always. I chose a quilting pattern called sunflowers and had it quilted in a thread color called cranapple. It really makes the design pop! I went to the sisters web site on yahoo and the 2004 album contained 3 quilts. I now have completed one, one is in line at the shop to be quilted and the third remains in a plastic bag, all kitted up and ready to go.
Next on the list is the quilt for Sue's student teacher. The top is completed. I need to layer it up. I plan on quilting this bad boy myself. I also need to finish the "good to go" bag.
This Saturday is sisters. Hopefully I can get something done there.
When I was looking on the web site, I noted many 2005 quilts that need completion. Perhaps I should revise my list and finish them in order. Won't Pat be surprized when she sees "Rotten Vegetables"(4/05) all done! "Homespun Hill" (9/05) now has one house with no roof or chimney and the rest of the "housing development" remains in a pile on the coffee table. "Blueberry Pie" (6/05) need the backing and binding made, as does "Garden Path"(8/05). So many quilts...so little time!

I recognize this one. I actually finished it and gave it as a gift to my DIL. Now that she and Jason are divorcing I'll probably never see it again. Love the Sister Superior remark. Housing project!

I have the top done for this and keep thinking I'll quilt it myself. I just need to get around to it as usual....

I also finally finished that quilt this weekend. I need to buy a back and get it quilted now.
