    I missed my date to post so will catch up now!!!
    I completed the May and the June embroidery lessons with my software. In fact, I liked the June lesson so much that I may use it as a block in a future quilt! My niece announced her engagement. I made a bread bag, napkins and napkin rings to go with the chicken placemats that I had finished earlier. These items will be a shower gift. I sewed a gingham skirt for a grand daughter. I finished chenille potholders and a bag that I will donate to the guild's boutique sale in September.

    I started a leader/ender project. I made progress on the Good Fortune/Bonnie Hunter mystery. I recapped what I accomplished in July. Now. . .if I can just keep the momentum going!!!

      Dear Lotti,
      So sorry to hear about your Dad.
      I still miss my dad and he passed away 40 years ago but every time I dust the photo of him and Mum it brings a tear to my eye.
      You learn to live with the loss but you don't get over it.
      Be happy that he was surrounded by a loving family.
      Best wishes and hugs
      Anne

        Terry, I enjoyed your post and blog postings. You've been busy!

        I hear you regarding the frustration with the embroidery module. I get so frustrated sometimes that I want to give up. I've never been able to stitch something out without multiple thread breakages. It's so maddening!

        I admire your persistence in sorting and using your friend Martha's scraps. It's a nice way to honor her and help others. Good luck with your Good Fortune quilt. I tried one of Bonnie's mysteries and it just wasn't for me. Though I do enjoy watching the progress everyone makes. I do have a leader ender project going. I think Bonnie's idea is so clever. I've made several quilts this way and it always makes me happy to see them done!

        Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. You inspire me! geneva

              Hello all,

              Limania's husband posted on facebook that Limbania has passed away this morning. I am so saddened to hear this. My heart goes out to her husband and children. She was an amazing quilter and such a wonderful woman. So strong. Limbania, rest in peace.

                  Yes I was so sad to see this but was afraid it was coming. Feel so sad for her lovely family.

                      I haven’t posted on TQS in so long but was very sad to see the notice on Facebook about Limbania. She has such a young family and it’s hard to imagine them going through this. I’m glad to see the news got posted here on TQS where she has many friends.

                        So sad to read this. I remember her posting about her receiving her diagnosis, seems like not so long ago. Blessings to her family.

                          Yippie! I've finally finished my Granddaughter Josie's quilt for college! Its called "Tutti Frutti"! Designed by Darlene Zimmerman for Robert Kaufman Fabrics. I purchases the quilt kit (fabric and pattern) from Fab Fabrics St. George UT.

                          Busy summer for us travelling to the 150 anniversary of the Golden Spike Celebration in Promontory Point in Utah, Denmark and Germany and lastly a family visit in central Minnesota.

                            Barb, your quilt is awesome! I'm sure Josie will enjoy it for a very long time.

                              Barb,
                              Lovely quilt. Fresh and fun. I think the name is very appropriate for it.
