Playing around with a few new projects

I have a friend who is expecting this month...Yes, this month and I am still working on the baby quilt.  Here is what I so far.  It's a bit of stretch for me, not only in the color scheme as she picked jewel tones, but also the pattern. I hope she likes it in the end.



Then my BFF gave me these gorgeous fat quarters, that I so need to decide what to with them.  Any suggestions?



We took a little trip to Seattle and I spied this quilt in a quilt shop in La Conner that I just loved the simplicity of it.


I remembered that my juicer doubles as a pasta maker, so I wiped up some noodles on Sunday!



Last spring a dear friend, Becky, sold me her Singer Featherweight.  I had it serviced and tuned up but hadn't sewn on it at all until this week. I know I suck.  Well, I set it up on the coffee table and played around with her and made a few things.   This is becoming my new favorite thing to do.  Thank you Becky!

A Christmas table runner


Six Charm Packs paired up and now doubled


Then I also threw together a table runner on my Bernina too.



I am also working on a Missouri Star Quilt Shop Irish Chain pattern.  It will be king size with matching shams and pillowcase - one day that is.  Here is my slow progress.


What are you working on?

I'm still here,

just haven't been able to get my blog groove going lately.  Keep thinking I need to post and then look fabric!

So here is a quilt I made for my father in law back in Texas.



I did a self binding and hand tied it rather than binding and quilting it...Yes, last minute Christmas gift needed to get done quickly.



Here is a little gem I picked up off of Craig's list. She is a Singer 66 Red Eye from 1923

She is really beautiful and I used a local shop that did a great job in buffing her up.

Last Friday I was able to attend the Road to California show (sadly, my dear friend Karen from SewMuch2Luv got sick and couldn't go with me).

Here is ELEANOR BURNS.  I'm such a paparazzi!



I was hoping she'd throw thread on me like fairy dust.

Here's the wall of Red Work Submissions for the Bird Brain Designs Challenge.



Here is one little item I did end up purchasing but will not get until after I go get my peepers checked at the eye doc next month, from Craft Optics.




Here are some of the quilts on display.







And finally, here is a little something I am working on right now.



Here is one that I have already completed.
