Valentine blocks


Good morning, I tried the tube quilting method and will make a table runner or topper from them. They are easy but accuracy is very important. I just use a ruler with 45 deg. marks on it and it works fine.

Snow is melting a little here. Suppose making room for more.; ) Have a great day.

Ready to Quilt


I finished a top I started several years ago. It is a disappearing 9 patch with blocks I exchanged in a swap. I finally got the border on and am going to send it to Sarcastic Quilter to quilt. It is a throw that will be just the right size to snuggle in.

We had snowy weather again today. I think about 5 more inches to add to our 20 we got earlier. Tonight the wind is piling it up so we will have to clean the drive- I am ready for summer.
My next project will to finish a jewel box top I started last year. Happy sewing

I won again

I won the giveaway from SarcasticQuilter- maybe I should buy a lottery ticket ; ) She gave some really nice prizes and I will post a picture when I receive them. Thanks for the giveaway.
We are still in the deep freeze in South Dakota although the sun is shining. It was -8 degrees when we left for church.
Some friends from my guild are going to make blocks- Someone is buying the focus fabric and we will each buy a yard. We are going to make 13 blocks of our choice. We will each receive 12 and the 13th one will be made to give to charity.
Hope you are all having a good start in the new year.

My Prize


Just wanted to show you all the thread I won in SewCalGal's giveaway. the colors are all so nice that I will use everyone. I would like to thank Sew Cal and I Have A Notion for donating the thread.
