Just When You think You Are Done

Shop owner and my boss came home fromSpring Quilt Market and brought us a gift. Pic below.


Looks like a small cosmetic bag , doesn't it.  It is not , when you unzip it you find out what it really is!!


 A shopping bag!! Neat , really cool that she thought of us!  Surrounded by all that quilt inspiration and took time to think of us, great!

I was starting to put together my redwork blocks of Alice In Wonderland  ,Designed by Mirkwood Designs.  This came out afew years ago about same time Tim Burton's movie with Johnny Depp and Tim's wife Helen Burton. I thought I had twelve blocks. I was down to the last row , and I was missing the last block!! Oh my I thought at first Ilost it at my stitch therapy group meeting this afternoon. Then I retraced my steps thru my house and then looked throughly thru my folders , nothing no where to be found. Oh My!!!!  I decided to look at my patterns to see which block I was missing ,so that I would know exactly what I was looking for.  I had forgotten to do one block!!  So bak to the embroidery hoop for one more block. Whew. At least I did not lose it. Just My mind.  So I am going to show you pics of ones I have finished.
















Sorry this last pic is not good.  Hopefully I will show you this top put together this week.  Next time will show you a tutorial on a project we did in stitch therapy.  All for now , bedtime is calling.  Martha

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.
