Country Threads UFO Challenge - May #10







It was such a quick and easy project to do, however, that I challenged myself to finish a much larger quilt that I started in 2010. This quilt was not even on my original list of 12 unfinished projects. So, Ta Da, here it is:
Settlers Pride A Maggie Bononomi BOM I did at Pieceful Gatherings Quilt Shop.




Here is the list:

We'll find out this Saturday what project is up next!

The continuing saga of a clean sewing room


I found yet another storage solution at the Container Store....for all those pesky rulers.
It gets them up and off of my sewing surface.


I haven't had this much free space on my table since I first got it.
I can even have my sewing project right in front of me.


This is the center clock for Jo Morten's Prairie Flowers with one of my new favorite rulers...
The Bloc Loc flying geese ruler in the perfect size for this Jo Morten project.

Self-declared Quilt Retreat Weekend


Ok, I declared it Quilt Retreat Weekend at my house last Friday. Then I got a bonus day off today (Monday) because the library was closed due to construction work. So.....I accomplished a lot. I could really use one more day though. Hopefully I will be able to finish a couple of these projects up by next weekend.

Country Threads Challenge - My project for March


Well, here it is; my project for the Country Threads Challenge for March. I'm really having fun with this program. The first of the month is always a little exciting waiting to see what I'll be working on for the month. This is a pretty easy one even though I started it two Christmases ago. I'm ahead of the game...it will be ready for Christmas 2013!!!
