Working On It

Image
Working on my angel wings, slowly but surely  building up to a finish.                               Adding another feather row...... Adding more rows on top.... More rows added to the bottom. Now I need to add to the sides.  I love getting rid of all those scraps, but there is always more left.  Chatter with you later, Martha.

Thank You Melody!

Thank you Melody for coming to my rescue! Melody let me know where to find my angel wings pattern (Even though I am 3/4 done with my present version). "Stash Statement", a book by Kelly Young, has it as a bonus pattern. She also has a blog, "My Quilt Infatuation", check it out sometime. Thanks again Melody! Now a few pics of my progress.....                                      Chatter later, Martha.

Getting Older

You could put a baby on it and take a pic of your little angel! You could embroider someones name and date of meeting thier maker.  I decided to try and duplicate what I remember with graph paper.  I tried my best . I have gotten a small portion put together using small mini charms and  random leftover charm squares cut in fourths.  I am so upset with myself because one of my granddaughters  asked if I would make a quilt for one of her friends who lost her dad. She said she would give me some of the  shirts later this month when I go there to visit. I thought this would be a nice pattern for this occasion.  It is a quilt with angel wings on it.  I hav

Three more rows were sewn... This last one has a tint of yellow in the background. I put the last three rows together, I then sewed all my scraps leftover together. I am hoping to use them in the back. Give you a picture of both sides together, since I don't have them sewn yet.....  I am taking it to my friend Connie to quilt.  Chatter later, Martha.
