Heather, your mil's quilt looks wonderful. I can see all the love in it from here! :kiss:
Rosemary, your quilt reminds me of summertime, when the living is easy..... Very nicely done and how fun to use up all those bits and pieces of other well loved items. Clever.
I am working on another baby quilt. It's for my grandson Dylan who is to be born in mid January. I was stuck for quite awhile, but found the pattern I wanted to use, pulled all fabrics from my stash hmy: and now have the top done. I just need to add a border and his name and of course quilt it. I've been doing a lot of care for my mother so that pokes into my sewing time. But I'm getting there! I'll post a picture in a day or two.
Happy weekend my friends!

Rosemary, your blocks look so nice. Funny how a leader/endear project can morph into something you want finished,,,
Heather, your MIL will be very pleased.
It's been a busy week for me with a few monkey wrenches thrown in!! I have a list of things that need to be taken care of, and dusting/wiping all construction dust off is utmost on my list! And,,, I would rather sew than clean.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone,

:lol: Fabulous. Just right for ex battery hens poor things. My gang wear their own feather duvets, just moulted so all ready for winter. They usually wait until it turns freezing and icy before dumping their feathers.
Great stuff Heather and Rosemary.
I've been on my hols and lounging around in temps of 30 degrees plus so not done much sewing. I did go on a workshop today (driving through frost and snow) and made a piece from torn hand dyed sheets. Lots of squares on top of eachother etc., great fun and her fabric was beautiful space dyed.

Rosemary - like your Celtic Solstice blocks.
Heather - your quilting looks fantastic your MIL will love it.
Geneva - looking forward to picture of latest grandchild quilt. Fun to look at the link for the chicken sweaters too.
Wendy - wow like your torn hand dyed sheet blocks what a fun idea. I had no idea you'd had snow/cold weather until you mentioned pretty pictures on the internet.
We're at our family second home in the desert for a couple days. (Back to the city tomorrow). Three more applique blocks to go then I'm caught up on My County Homes BOM. Now I'm working on American Quilt Trail counted cross stitch ornaments from a kit.

I've been keeping up with all of your posts, and just want to "Ditto" to everything Barb said! Also, can't stop laughing at the knitted chicken sweaters!
I went on a quilt retreat with many of my guild members last weekend, and had a wonderful time! Good food, and good quilty fellowship. I decided to work on the things I started in classes at Houston Festival. Here is the Noriko Endo class project that is in progress, and what I spent most of the time on.
And here is the wonderful retreat center where we stay. It is about a 15 minute drive from my home.

Dawn, it looks lovely - BOTH the project and the retreat center. They almost make me drool...sorry. I was on a quilt retreat (that's why I wasn't here at the Virtual Retreat) . It was held in an old nun's convent. Run by very old nuns. Use. Your. Imagination. The basics. But the grounds were lovely.

Wendy, your torn piece is wonderful! I love the colors!
Dawn, your piece is amazing! You two have been really creating!
I finished the top of the quilt for my grandson Dylan Christopher due in mid January. I was really stuck on what to make for this baby. I fretted and futzed and finally came across a pattern I liked, adjusted it, used all stash fabrics except the teal and wow! I really like the way it came out.
and here's a close up of his name. I used the new appli-quick stuff I got from TQS for free for signing up for another year. I really like it. It's sticky on the back so you can place and replace things really easy. And it's really easy to sew through.
I am currently making two "Frozen" no sew blankets for my granddaughters for Christmas. It's 2 layers of fleece, with all 4 edges cut into 1/2" strips and all those strips knotted together. The fleece is a living thing, I'm sure. No matter how I smooth it, it grows and shrinks. Once I got beyond these blankets being "works of art", worthy of a blue ribbon, and realized they are for cuddling and spilling hot chocolate on, I was good to go. However, do you know how boring it is to cut all those little strips and tie all those knots? I will post a picture when I finish the 2nd one. I know the girls will love them. I took them to JoAnns last September when I visited, and Sydney found the fleece Frozen fabric and in all her 4 year old glory said "Oh Graneva, will you make me a blanket with this?" as she was literally hugging the bolt of fabric. I am a happy Graneva, cutting and knotting....
I am so very thankful for all of you, my TQS friends. Whatever would I do without you? In America we will celebrate Thanksgiving this week. I have so much to be thankful for, including all of you!
Take care,
genevaGeneva

Beautiful quilt, Dawn! You really got a lot out of that class!
Love the torn fabric quilt, Wendy! The soft, torn lines of the fabric go really well with the soft colors.
Love the baby quilt, Geneva! Yet another lucky grandchild for you! I know what you mean about the fleece blankets. I made them for my nieces several years ago. The fabrics really slip against each other and I was very frustrated until I figured out to pin them together before starting to cut and knot. That helped a lot! My nieces made one for me the next year and I absolutely love it! They are so warm and cuddly!

Wendy, Geneva,and Dawn,
You are all making such lovely pieces.
Wendy, I'd really like to try something similar to your piece with my hand dyed fabrics
Dawn, I'm sure your piece took a lot of work to achieve the composition
Geneva, your baby quilt is so colorful and the pattern would lend itself to fussy cutting if one wanted to make an I Spy quilt.
Enjoying the eye candy,
Luann
