The Last Mini

Image
I finally finished the last mini we will be discussing for our "Little Gatherings" class in September. And I even managed to to a little hand quilting on it too! Now I just have to blow up block and make something with it. I also have my first block of the "Raven" ready to be appliqued down. I hate having pins in the way so I baste pieces down useing Roxanne's  glue (which washes out) ,  so I can pick up the block and go anywhere without fear the pieces will stay put. As you can see I still need to make three berries for my one stem. I am saving that for a demo I'll be doing later.  Chatter with you later, Martha.

I have today off and had a long to do list.  First off to the county fair grounds to deliver my one and only entry.... My "Sophie's Garden" quilt. Then I went to Country Fabrics quilt store to see my friend Connie Krueger's "Row by Row" quilt and of course to get and share a pic with you.... Then I went to my home store of Colorz Quilt Shop and took a few pics of some of the displays there for you to peruse.... This is called "14 On Point" . This is called "Vantastic".   We sold out of kits the first day, but we do have patterns still.  The placemats and tablerunner are from the Peiced Tree pattern "Checkered Past" . This is " Paul Bunyan" , He comes in a boxed kit. I have started working on a project with Denise, the store's new owner. It is called "The Raven" by Blackbird Designs.   Here is a pic from the book.... Now next on my list is laundry,vacuuming and grocer...
