Time has flown by with my eyes wide shut!

I can't believe that it is the 22. I last blogged on the ......9th. I knew I probably wouldn't make every day but I thought for sure I could do atleast 2 or 3 times a week. Well boy was I wrong. But I have been working.

This is Rejena's. She loves this pattern and has done it on another quilt or two. Can't you see why!Such a striking quilt for such a simple design. This was her first works with Homespuns and I have to say she did great with them. I now know when I need assistance with those stretchy Homespuns who I can turn to. Once again Rejena great job.

This next quilt is Melissa M's , her and I bartered for this quilting. She had a bunch of old Feed Sacks and I have long arm. Well you now know who owns some of those feed sacks don't you.  She is making  a series of quilts of the 4 seasons. These hang in the entry room of her home. She has Summer hanging still, so this is her Fall. I hope she gets it bound in time. Or I guess I hope she has Winter started.   

Well now I just need to find the rest of my photos. hmmmm wonder where I put them

Day 8 of blogtoberfest

Whewre has time went. One day it was day 4 and I was going to post pics the next day and now here it is day 8 and I am just getting back to my blog. All I can say is working working working. Day job is going great guns and with Christmas coming the quilting is steady and in demand. So Yes my only excuse is I am staying busy. So here is a couple I have done.

This is Arletta's. It was so big that I couldn't hang it outside so I just grab a shot in the house.this is the first one I have done for her so I hope she likes it, She had other quilts done by someone else and wanted me to do the sam thing as they had. Uh Oh ! Gotta do what some one else did, I hope I understand what she wants right. Well then she had and emergency and her hubby picked it up so I may really never know if it was really what she wanted or not. But from what I could understand by her explaination it was just meandering hearts. So I did just my basic meandering hearts. But no matter Arletta what a lovely quilt.

This is another of Margie's. Margie is more than just a great quilter she is a great friend. I love getting her quilts they are all so different. If you don't rememeber I did a whole post of nothing but hers sometime last month. You can find it here. so just add another to that show. She was a little skeptical on this one. She thought the borders may be to big and struggled for months on quilt it or take it apart. I am so glad that she had it quilted. Even tho it is slightly off it still looks wonderful and after she washes it no on will know. Heck I doubt if many would know now.  This quilt is made from her late Mother In Laws left over scraps and I believe maybe some clothing. So yes the fabrics are questionable in todays standards but the meaning of this quilt out weighs any of that other stuff. Margie I know your Hubby or one of the kids will love having this quilt made from Mom or Grandma's things. And to top it all off it is a wonderful design and beautiful quilt. So pretty!! Another job well done Margie.

Blog Blog Blogging away, Days 3 oops and 4

Yep Day three just slipped right away. I mean I woke up and it was day 4. Does that mean I did nothing or does that mean I was so busy that I didn't have time. I am going with the latter. That is my story and I am sticking to it.  I got 2 customer quilts done but have not downloaded a pic of either so you will have to wait. You know I was telling you about the shop hop I went on,,, well I won one of the smaller gifts. Yeehaawww. I have only ever won one other time so it is cause for celebration. Whooott WWhoooottt Toot Toot. Happy Dance Happy Dance. I am going out to buy lottery tickets tomorrow. I mean my luck has changed I won the FQ's from Linda last month and now this. I went and picked up my winnings and got a small bat of Dream Blend and pattern book and some Christmas fabric. Yep feeling pretty happy about it. I also have started knitting a pair of socks for a friend of mine. We are bartering services. She is a wonderful fantastic artist. As in painter. So she is going to paint my sign out front for wool winter socks. Yippee! I love to knit. Yep I will have to get a pic of them too. But right now that darn camera is so stubborn. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Hmm sounds like the owner. Ok pics tomorrow I promise!
