Posey for Mar

My friend Margaret Fisk is doing a creativity thing on her blog this week, and she's asking for flower doodles. :)

Here's mine. I draw this flower ALL THE TIME actually, it's a very, very common doodle for me.  Usually the lone flower going every which way, but sometimes I chain them. :)

Pattern Giveaway!

Samelia's Mum is giving away a collection of Rivendale patterns by Sally Giblin.

Check them out! :)

Pinks and greens all pieced!

Here's all of the blocks for the pink and green quilt I'm making. Just need to sew the blocks together, add borders, and quilt!

What I sewed today

It's for my granddaughter' bedroom wall, above her crib. Isn't it CUTE??? (and I've trimmed the corners - shoulda done that before taking the pic, but it was sooooo CUTE!!)

All pieced. Finally!

I gathered the eclectic strips for this quilt at a strip swap more than a year ago, and I finally found a pattern I liked at the Planet Patchwork New Year's Day mystery quilt (thanks, Cyndie for the idea!!)

Anyway, here it is. :)

Now I just have to get it quilted. lol

First finished project of the year!

I'd pieced these blocks awhile back - last spring, maybe? - but I needed to get frames, and sew borders to fit the frames...

Anyway, they're done and I think they look pretty darn cute! They're 4x6" each. :) Paper pieced, all batik.

Quilting

As I had my two current quilting projects draped over the sewing machine last night, I noticed that the quilting on the white one showed up quite well. Here it is, and I hope you all can see it okay.

I really like them when they start being 'bumpy'. :) (the big, red stitches are basting and will be removed )
