Rolling right along

Another week and a couple of days...but who's counting, I am joining Slow stitching Sunday a bit late!! I have more things finished and showed them at guild today. So happy to be moving along onto more projects. Our theme challenge is complete. I used a pattern idea from Quiltmaker magazine to make my wallhanging. We were given one fat quarter (blue print) and we could add as many more as we wanted but had to include the themes of each month. Bird, flower, heart, insect, any thing, any block were the themes. I really love the finished product and it is already hanging over my computer table in the family room. Also completed the Kleenex box challenge. Think it will make the perfect baby quilt for someone!!

Also finished  and sent away, a baby quilt for my great nephew. This is the photo I got back.
I think he likes it!!

 Now because I have finished these I am in a place now wondering what and which project to do next. I am going to visit my friend Susan this weekend to sew, so maybe that will be the starting day. Until then I am working on an on going quilt.168  4 1/2" string blocks and 840 half square triangles finishing at 2"...YIKES!!!

 These are pics of the quilting on my large quilt I just finished. Kathy wanted to see the quilting up close. I must say I am not very good at it but it is hard to capture quilting. Just in case I also included a pic of the actual stencil. She will get to see it later this summer when she comes for a visit...I am so excited about that, the last part of my 50th birthday present. There will be four of us, Barb, Louise, Kathy and myself. Will be a very entertaining weekend! But that is not for a few weeks so many more projects to get done between now and then. Happy sewing!!
