These are two of my latest finished projects. Well, they still need names and labels. I will take suggestions on names. A blogger I read suggested you go through magazines like Good Housekeeping and look for names that way. That's my next step.
I got the top done to my step-daughters Christmas rag quilt - I just need to make all the snips. This past weekend was her bridal shower. It was a beautiful luncheon at her aunts house in Livermore. They did a great job with wonderful food and Kelly was just beaming.
That's Kelly and my mother-in-law on the right and her fiance's grandma on the left. It was a little warm, but luckily there was plenty of shade. While in Livermore I asked my sister-in-law Marcy if we could stop at a quilt store there. So we did. I got a 5" pack of Christmas material and some yardage to go with it and also some good scissors to help cut through her rag quilt and a pattern she liked for my nieces next quilt.
The rest of the weekend was spent with my family (dad, brother, sis-in-law, nephew and niece) My mom is in Holland with my older sister so we made a good dinner for my dad on Sunday. On Sunday afternoon my SIL and niece and I went miniature golfing. Here's my sweet niece playing.
This is what I got when I tried to take pictures of my junior high-aged nephew.
He never used to be this camera shy. I hate that they grow up and won't let their auntie kiss all over them.Well, it's late and I have a few more blogs I want to check out. Until the next finished project....
I love your Fresh Squeezed quilt. I made one too and will be teaching a class at the shop. Wasn't it fun making that quilt! I love your fabrics. And it looks like you made the full quilt. I got tired and made mine much smaller.
ReplyDeleteThe orange and yellow quilt looks so bright and cheery. I thought of a Merry Go-Round. Did you feel merry or dizzy with all those points?
