Design Wall Monday, November 5, 2012

Many Birthday wishes going out to my youngest daughter, Kendyll, who turns 25 tomrrow! She will be celebrating in Africa this year, but we are all sending her lots of wishes for a great day!! We miss you!



This week I am working on the Little Monkey Quilt. Have it all layed out and ready to stitch the rows together. Bordes are ready to go. Hope to complete by the end of the week, if I can get some sewing time in. 


Also working on Dear Jane Blocks- have rows A-E complete and almost finished with row F. Check back later this week for pictures of progress.


See what everyone else is working on at Patchwork Times.

Picked up a great cheddar and a green reproduction. Not sure what I will do with them yet- but I am sure I can think of something!

Design Wall Monday October 22, 2012

Happy Monday All!!

This week I am working on a Quilt for my new grand-niece, Annistyn. It is a free Bonnie Hunter pattern called Little Monkey.  Had lots of great scraps to use up for this one. The blocks are almost finished and then just need to add sashing, borders and quilt it up. Hope to get it finished soon and in the mail!

Sunday Stash Report October 21, 2012

Time has sure flown! Can't believe over a month has passed since my last post. Thanks Lynne for reminding me!!

It has been a sad time for our family this past week as we lost our beloved Father, Husband, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather, James Boldt. He left us very peacefully this past Monday and is now in Heaven with the angels. We will miss him greatly!

Jim on his 84 Birthday.

October is here and almost gone! The weather is final changing in San Diego and we are actually having a rainy day today- perfect for football (or baseball-go Giants!) and getting caught up on all those little things. Below is one of my favorite fall quilts hanging in the house.


So on to the stash report! Only additions to report these past weeks. Have not had much time to complete anything, but have a few things that I am working on. Check back tomorrow for Design Wall Monday!

Added a couple of fabrics for a quilt I am working on for my Niece, who just had her baby girl on Oct 7th. Also purchased a couple of Batiks for a future project. So all in all I added 8 yards in the past couple of weeks. Now its time to get sewing!!!
