Sewing Away

Yesterday I finished the binding on this one. I think I'm going to watch a movie tonight and hand stitch it down.

Then I made these 2 belts!!! It was Anne Marie Mot's idea and it's a lot of fun!!!!! Can't wait to use them.

Check out the Bronx basil!! Growing like crazy so I cut it back and made pesto. Yummy.....

And today I pieced a xmas sample. The photo is awful - it's from my phone and I couldn't get the red and green right in iphoto but you get the idea. Great fabrics!!! Just need to quilt it.

New Toy

Quilt Market was fantastic!!! So many new ideas and lots of beautiful fabric. I bought a new toy - I'll show it when it's delivered. Very exciting!!!!
I've finished quilting the big quilt for the next class session at HQ. Tomorrow it will get the binding and then off to the shop. The new schedule comes out June , so I'm just in time!!!

I'm Thrilled!

My Eldon won Best in Show at the Northern Star Quilters Guild Show this past weekend. Here's a photo from the show. The whole show was really beautiful - there are a lot of very talented quilters in this guild. It's a very welcoming group - you should consider joining...their website is www.northernstarquilters.com

And here is a close up of the quilting.
