Maybe the Last One

I am nearly done with this quilt.
I had to do a little tweaking, but
I am near the finish line on it!

Which means that this is the last quilt
that needs to be quilted for the quilt show!
It was one of those "bonus quilts". I made it all from
scraps.
 I used all my leftover fabrics from my FQS Designer Mystery quilt.
Woo hoo! I had hardly any of the taupe fabric from the Strawberry Fields
group left... so I was super excited last week when my LQS got
Avalon delivered and I saw some taupe in the line!!!
I instantly purchased some and replaced my inner border with the
new Avalon fabric and then added another print from Avalon
to the final border.
I am a very happy camper!

I have one quilt at the LAQ right now... and when I get that one
back this week, I will hand over my Dancing Dollies and breath
a sigh of relief.
But in my mind I keep thinking...
I can squeeze one more in before May 1st.
So, maybe this isn't the last one!

BOM REHAB: All Cutting, No Sewing

This looks like one of those Monday's when 

I don't have any time at all to 

visit.

I only managed to cut out two of the blocks that I am behind on for the 

Designer Mystery Block of the Month 

from Fat Quarter Shop. That's blocks 6 and 7.

I like to have all the "grunt" work out of the way...

so when I get a moment I can sit down and sew...

this way, it's all ready to go!

What did you do in the Rehab?

Srap Basket Sunday

I had some time to play in Scrap Basket Sunday this morning...
and  get another 12 blocks finished for my Scrappy Fireworks quilt!
I am so thrilled to have 24 blocks done now! Only 144 to go!
I might be exaggerating!

But time for play is over with...
I have two of our sons along with 2 of their friends outside mowing
and weed eating right now, so I have got to go do my part... like plant some flowers!!!
