I hate the to-do list.

Howdy,
So I have re-discovered that to-do lists and I are not friends. Instead of working on the list today I decided to do something with the plaids I got at the quilt show. In my head it was maybe going to be a Tenille quilt. However, after I started sewing the squares together they told me that they were actually Ken plaids. So, here's the quilt, maybe it can be for Sharen and Ken's anniversary in June?

Check Another One Off the To Do List!!

Hey ... One more done!!
I put a solid yellow from the Hometown line on the back. The red binding is great ... it frames it well. I love this fabric line a lot. I think I'm going to purchase a bit more just so I have it on hand! I have 2 quilts and 2 pillows made out of it. Maybe I should just focus on getting enough for the bag that I want to make!!!

Enjoy

P.S. I can't believe how much blogging we've done already this year!! Good for us!!

What I've been up to

Howdy,
So here's some pics of what I've been up to. You'll notice that only one is boyish. I'm having trouble making boy stuff when I have such cute girl fabric. The completed blue-green one went to my E.A.'s(from the last two school years) new boy.

This one has lots of cute pinks and browns and some girlie John Deere fabric thrown in. It's the Road Trip? Tutorial on cluck cluck sew.
This one is made up of girlie flannel scraps. It's an idea that I'm working on in my head.This one could be for a boy. However I didn't notice some of the lines were a little off until I put it together. I made it using that HST tutorial I posted.
Oops. Forgot to turn the picture. Anyway this is a zig-zag girlie quilt made with that HST tutorial as well. I finally used those cute pigs I had in my fabric stash. Finally, here's Ava,Lee, and Madilyn getting ready to try out Ava's Birthday quilt and read a story.
