It's time to show what I have accomplished during January and February
for the Charming Girls' Quilt Club.
I finally got the wedding quilt "quilted" and bound and gave it to
DS and DIL in January. We had a belated holiday with them.
This was a little belated Christmas present for Jilly Bean.
Picnic was my "Word" (or theme) for this year for the CGQC.
Here was my weekend quilt: PICNIC, the cover quilt for
Scrap-Basket Sensations. I really enjoyed making this quilt!
Of course this is the one I had to make. The pattern was called Picnic after all!
Here is a picture of the Fat Quarter Shop quilt sample I made for them, all pretty in it's little vignette.
My goal for the year was to incorporate embroidery into my repertoire
and these tow projects, Henrietta Whiskers from Bunny Hill and
Birdie Stitches by Little Miss Shaby, her BOM are on my agenda
for this weekend.
Here is my Gone To Market quilt... but even though the top looks finished I have a plan...
I am going to continue working on baskets and turn this small one into the large one...
and I put the piano key border on all 4 sides for the time being... but when I turn it into the large quilt, I will add what I have on the sides to the top and bottom like it is on the pattern.
Sweet Spot got finished just in the neck of time for Le Petite!
34 friends stopped by to chat:
Love Sweet Spot...hope to finish mine today!
Look at you - you finished a bunch of sweet projects again this time! Love them all - and can't wait to see your embroidery - hope you enjoy it as much as I've been enjoying it!
You have been busy------very nice. I have been thinking about an embroidery project, it has been a long time since I have done any.
Loved them all! Sweet Spot and Picnic...LOVE them!!
Loved the show and tell! Did you make the actual quilt that is in the book Scrap Baskets or did you mean you just made one like the one on the cover? Either way, great job!:)
Great show and tell. What fabric line did you use for your Picnic quilt? It looks great.
Oh my gosh! You have done so much (quit! You are making me look bad! LOL!!) and all of it so pretty. Each and every item is really nice. You've done wonderful these last two months. I like your idea with the piano keys.
Good for you Sinta getting so much accomplished. Very nice projects as well.
You accomplished quite a bit!! Jan. and Feb. seem to be very productive months for me too. Wonder why that is-hmmm? All the quilts are just lovely, but Picnic intrigues me the most.
Oh wow--you have some delightful projects there--I want them all--!!!
Keep right on stitching up a storm--then when it is hot this summer I will let you have a little "vacation"!!!
hugs, di and miss gracie
You're making me look like a slacker. Actually, I do a pretty good job of making me look like a slacker. :-) I can't believe all you've accomplished! And everything is gorgeous! I love the Bliss in your Picnic Quilt. And the Sweet Spot quilt is adorable. I think I need to take you fabric-shopping with me!
You have been busy girl!
wow Sinta, you've been very busy! I am going to be doing a stitching project from next month and am looking forward to that, but I do love those cute birdies on LMS!
Wow. You did a great job on them all!
Thanks for sharing them with us. :)
Have a great weekend. :)
You've got alot done. All our projects are gorgeous!
Look at all of that....btw, love the apron, must have missed that one. SO CUTE.

Love your Picnic. I have extra Bliss jelly rolls strips from another project and I had the same idea! Now I know that it's as cute in person as it was in my head ;)
Wow! Lots of gorgeous projects! I especially love your Picnic quilt.
Love your Sweet Spot, I posted mine today on my blog if you want to have a look . XOXO
I've never met a dresden quilt I didn't like. Beautiful! Great picnic quilt too!!!
I sure love your Bliss Picnic. And your sweet spot quilt. And your Dresden. And everything!
Great quilts, I want to make the Picnic one myself.
I need to rest. I'm tired just reading about all the things YOU got accomplished! I can't wait to see your embroidery ~ I'm sure it is going to be wonderful.
And I love your Picnic quilt. Perfect fabric choice for your beautiful quilt. Good job!
Okay, fess up, Sinta. When do you rest, when do you relax, when do you get some shut eye? LOL
Oh how I love your projects, girlfriend!! I am HEARTING the belated Christmas present for Jilly Bean....I HEART the colors - TOO CUTE !!!!!
And I see that fish swimming on your blog. Is he catching anything? LOL
Hugs,
I'm behind on my blogs, you've been a very busy girl! I love your plan for Gone to Market, it sure looks great now, and with more to come, that will be amazing.
Congrats on the FQS sample, you did an outstanding job! I'm guessing it will be a popular item for Kimberly.
Of COURSE you needed a picnic quilt, I love it!
