Nothing Sweeter......

There's nothing sweeter than Sweet Peas from a Sweet Friend! And NOTHING smells nicer that Sweet Peas!

So pretty!

Kim's August Challenge is still in full swing around here.
The HO HO HOs are done and this Santa runner will be celebrating Christmas as it should! That is Number 4 down for the August Finish Up Challenge! (but who's counting.....ME!)








QUILT #5

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard, to get her poor dog a bone........or would you believe another unfinished quilt! Poor Rylie.....looks like she would rather have a bone....
Here is quilt number 5 - finished!! It has been in the cupboard for about that long- 5 years, so now I can put it in the 'to be hand quilted pile' along with the others! Yahooooo! My Hand Quilting group is so impressed with all my finished quilt tops.



What no bone?







AND.....when she got there, the cupboard was bare ....NOT! I'm afraid there were no bones but there were still some more unfinished quilts....sigh....


Well it looks like it's on to unfinished quilt Number 6.....

Stay tuned....

Happy quilting!

  2. Such a cute and fun finish in plenty of time for the season. Your new quilt is fantastic, I too think Rylie needs a bone for being such a good helper.

  3. The Santa mats are fun but the next quilt you showed us is truly beautiful! I love applique on patchwork, the way it sort of floats. And that one is to die for!

  8. That's so calm and just lovely. Well done on no5, and I'm looking forward to no 6. How many more after that? I think Riley's sitting there thinking, "when she gets to the bottom of that pile, maybe that's where she'll find the bone?"
