Hi everyone, I have been a bit of an absentee member the last week or sew. . .I have been busy quilting on the dnosaur quilt for my cousin's grandbaby. . .(with time out for a visit w/my folks who came down from PA for a few days). . .I finished the hand stitiching on the binding last night!! I will post a pic of the completed quilt once I sew the label on. . .
I did take a few minutes to read the posts each day so that I would have an idea of what was going on. . .
Just want to say welcome to all the newbies that joined while I was "chained" to the sewing machine. . .glad you are all with us. . .look forward to seeing projects and learning more about each of you
Helen, glad to hear your daughter is doing better. . .waiting to hear more info on Mia. . .keep us posted Happy!

ceecee,
I'm glad you took a breather and stopped in to say Hi. Did you get your quilt done? We are patiently waiting for pics.
Life is like a quilt...bits & pieces, joy -and- sorrow, stitched with love
CeeCee, another quilting song! We had 2 yesterday and now you have another completed quilt top - I can't wait to see the picture. That feels so great when you put that last stitch in. It is so fleeting though cuz as soon as i do, I am on to the next project. I think I need to savor that moment a little more but am so happy for you so I will savor your moment...lol
I am so happy that you got to spend time with your parents... those visits are precious. Glad to see you back and posting had missed you!
I've decided I quilt vicariously through all of you. I don't seem to be making much progress on the current quilt, but I tell you I'm caught up with all the messages! :-)

Judy - oh Judy... yippeee!!! she is caught up on the messages... now we need to get you quiting...
I am dreaming of sewing right now - wishing I was sewing... my sewing machine is giving me dirty looks it wants to be on - have you ever seen one give you dirty looks... it isn't nice - I can imagine how many needles it will break now because it is mad at me...lol
What quilt are you working on - my fuzzy brain can't remember if you told us so please refresh my memory - I am still working on BOP... it has waited for 5 years to be started so guess it is a patient quilt....not my sewing machine though it isn't patient at all.
The quilt is called Wheel in Motion; it's in the Quilting Through Life book.
Judy Iliff: I've decided I quilt vicariously through all of you. I don't seem to be making much progress on the current quilt, but I tell you I'm caught up with all the messages! :-)
Well at least you have your priorities straight Judy... LOL

you will have to show me a picture - remember I am downsizing...I do not need anymore books...lol
Here's a picture of the quilt and the book. I just realized the quilt is on the cover! Duh!
Judy,
that's a beautiful quilt. Are you using the same colours?
Ceecee,
glad you got the quilt done. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.
Also want to let you know the Blueberry ice cream was a big hit with DH. I think it needs a little tweaking. Too much cream. That's all I can taste.
Judy Iliff: Here's a picture of the quilt and the book. I just realized the quilt is on the cover! Duh!
Tis beautiful Judy...
Kris:Are you using the same colours?
No, mine is sage greens, goldish, redish, and purple - kind of. Man, that's a really good explanation, huh?!
Thank you for the picture Judy - very pretty quilt and I can't imagine why you are here reading and posting and not in there right now finishing your quilt... Beautiful! I can't wait to see your rendition- I love your
