On Tuesday it started snowing again, so I thought I would blog about that, but I was a little miffed at Mother Nature, so I figured I better not blog because it would turn into a rant! I'm so OVER the snow. The flakes were huge and if it had been raining, it would have been pouring!
The snow didn't last for very long, so I calmed down.
Since I keep showing progress on the things I'm working on, I thought I would show you that I CAN finish things.
This is called "Feathered Stars" and it's from Kim Diehl's book, Simple Traditions. I was in a Yahoo Primitive group and we did it as our Quarterly Quilt. I pretty much used the same colors as Kim did because I think that's what drew me to the quilt. It's hanging in hubby's den.
This quilt is in our dining room and it's called "Holly Basket" from the book, Holly Threads by Need'l Love. It was designed by Gerry Kimmel-Carr. I know it's a Christmas design, but I like it, so I leave it up all year.
I saved this one for last because it actually gave me tendonitis and I swore I would never do another applique quilt. It's called "Stella's Rose" from Samples of the Past, Part 3, by Blackbird Designs. I was taking a 4 week class and I got the whole blasted quilt finished in those 4 weeks, doing needleturn, no less! The pain in my elbow was so bad that I had to quit doing any handwork for quite awhile after. Taught me a really good lesson about "OCD".
Well, hopefully my blogger's block is gone. I'll be posting block #5 of Tisket a Tasket on Tuesday. Better get that scheduled in case baby grandson decides to arrive a bit early.
