Great Day

I had to work a half day today and then  a friend met me at work and we were off!
We went to a Quilt Show in Highland, Il. Then we went to Rosemary's Fabrics and Quilt Shop also in Highland.
I went in search of fabrics I need for a medallion quilt round-robin I'm doing for one of my guilds.
I had really expected to have to settle for something to use for the next border, BUT I found the perfect fabrics and can't wait to get started on it.

BUT WAIT

I think I hear the sofa calling my name. It needs someone to cuddle up with and take a nap.
Ok I'll go.... It will be hard but I'll do it......

Tis The Season Stitch-A-Long

Well I finally got my book for the Tis The Season stitch-a-long. I've got my fabrics all except for the borders. I have my borders picked out but want to complete the first 2 or 3 blocks and try them on with the borders before buying.
I did not want to go with the traditional red and green Christmas colors. So I selected these. The border fabric matches and does have ornaments on it, so I think it will work.

Twin's Quilts Finally Finished

Well today I finally got the twins quilts finished.  Now I have to get started on my daughter's baby quilt.
She is due April 6th, but since she is a repeat C-Sect the baby should be here by the end of March. Hope to have a date on Weds.
Never a dull moment.

Birdie Stitches Block of The Month

Well tonite I finally got my fabrics together and cut for the Birdie Stitches BOM.
I so enjoyed doing the embroidery work on the twins quilts that I went looking for
another embroidery quilt. I found the Birdie Stitches and am so ready to start on them.
I don't think it's to late to join since they just posted the second block the first of this
month. If you not sure what I'm talking about click on the Birdie Stitches button on my
blog and it will take you to the right place.

Twin Quilt Tops Finished

I did get the quilt tops done for the twins in time for the baby shower today.
I did have to bring them back home so I can work on getting them quilted.
I will try to take pictures tomorrow of the tops and get them loaded.
