Another UFO Bites the Dust and Another Progress Report

Hi There!

Finally finished my first Inklingo project.

This cute little table topper was all hand pieced and then I decided to machine quilt it as it was too odd a shape to put on Gilbert's longarm.

I've name it "Frummie's Coffee"
and the label was sewn on this evening.



Here's a picture of the back.

It's coffee bean fabric that I picked up, while in Florida.

And here's a picture of the front of it.

Tomorrow, it will replace my 30's table topper.



Pulled out the Easy Spider Quilt.... remember that one?

Gilbert and I managed to pick out ALL the itsy, bitsy pieces of paper that I had used to make the blocks. At one point, DON'T ASK ME HOW, but while removing the paper from the back, I noticed a 5 or 6 inch gap that wasn't sewn. A HUGE slit!!!

How did THAT happen?!??

Anyhow, I was too discouraged at the time and just threw it in a corner in my sewing room.

Tonight, I pulled it out and sewed the gap. Gilbert will iron it all for me tomorrow and longarm this one!

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

As for the Strippy SnowBall Blocks, well, I managed to sew a few more "frames" and now have 7 twelve inch snowballs finished. I hope to finish off the last 5 tomorrow evening.

Don't they kinda look like jewels?!??

*grin*

And finally, here's one of the last garden flower hangers that I made. I think I've made 4, in all... but I'm not considering them completely done 'cause I need to add "hangers" on them. Not looking forward to that, but I'll keep you posted when it gets done.

That's about it for show and tell.

Hope you have a Fantastic Friday!

Rainbow Flowers in the Midst of a Winter Storm!

Hi There!

My goodness! It's been so long since I've blogged that even "Blogger" forgot who I was! I had to sign back in !!!

LOL

Well, I arrived from Florida, yesterday afternoon.... and as much as I tried, it didn't work.

*insert sad face*

I tried to somehow capture my friends and the sunshine and the palm trees.... and bring them all back with me.

As of 10h30 this morning, it was VERY obvious that the sun hadn't followed me home!

*VERY LONG DRAWN OUT, THEATRICAL SIGH*

We're in the midst of yet ANOTHER snow storm....

Anyone want some of this?!?!?

If you pay for the shipping, I'll gladly pack it up and send you as MUCH as you want!

LOL

If some of you have been following
My Vacation Journal -
which I'm trying to update, ASAP, BTW...
you might have read that I've been working on some "Rainbow Flowers", by Inklingo.

Here's a picture of where I'm at, with my flowers.

I still need to sew the lower left hand flower onto the rest of them and finish off my last flower and then..... I might be adding more of what I call "acorns" around my flowers... to make it more of a circle....

But then again, would it look like a "flower" if it was almost a "circle".

Dunno.

We'll cross that bridge when we get to 'er.

*grin*

Have a Flippin' Fabulous Friday!!!
