Bears in the Posies

This quilt has actually been done for a couple weeks now but I finally got around to taking a picture of it. Here is my version of Judy L's "Bears in the farmhouse". I have renamed mine to Bears in the Posies because of the floral print. My fabric choices were not the best on this quilt. The bear toe nails totally take over the whole quilt but that is the way it is going to be. It really is a pretty quilt in real life. Now I wonder how long until I get around to quilting it. I have four others that need to be quilted also.
Here is a small quilt I made last month. This would be one of the reasons for the sl0wness of the Bears in the Posies. I had some fabric laying around and wanted to make this quilt for a while now and decided to go for it. It will be a charity quilt. Some one will love it.
I am off work today, that means housework, quilting, and lunch with a friend. I best be getting busy. Have a good day one and all.

April 15th Tea Party

I attended the Tea Party. It was so much fun. I had never done anything like this before. Will I do it again, YOU BETTCHA!!!!! I am planning on attending a National Tea Party on Oct 2 in DC. I hope to see many of you there.
These are just pictures of the crowd and signs, which were great.

Click on them to enlarge and see what people think of the out of control spending on our government.


As I stated before, this was not an us/them thing this is an American thing. We don't want to spend our children into debt beyond comprehension.

Tea Party


Just a small wall hanging or table topper I made yesterday.
We were to go to my daughter's for Easter dinner but sickness hit her home so plans were canceled. I needed something to occupy my time so I came up with this.
I hope many of you are planning to attend a Tea Party in your area on the 15th. Let the government know we are tired of this out of control spending. This is not an us/them situation, this is a save America situation. We need to stop this spending so our children and grandchildren and their children will not be strapped with this tax burden.

Table Runner


My project today at the quilting group I attend. I know it is totally the wrong time of year and not an Easter but Halloween topper but these are the fabrics I choose to work with. Tomorrow is Easter and I will not have it quilted by than so why not make something I will have quilted by the time the day arrives.
I do think my fabric choices for the pinwheels is a bit bright but I plan to quilt with black thread, spider web pattern so that will tone it down a bit.
Well I best be getting some house work done.
Have a Happy Easter. He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!!!!
ALLELUIA!!

Fortunate girl


I was one of the lucky winners in a drawing that Gudrun had on her blog. Boy was I surprised, because it has been a long time since this has happened and I was probably one of the last ones to leave a comment.
Anyway, here is a picture of the great stuff I received. I am so excited and am going to find the fabrics I want to use for the patterns.
Have a great week-end.
