Been awhile

It has been awhile since I last posted as life just gets in the way sometimes... I am working on the charity quilts for December... the World of Charity Stitchers have been working non stop on their lovely designs and sending Dona and myself the squares to be turned into quilts, needless to say we are trying our best to keep up with them, but the results so far are just lovely. Here are a few that I made, when I get a stack ready they will head out to the quilting room to meet Nellie Belle my long arm quilting machine

One of the WOCS members hand embroidered butterflies and I added a applique band to the center, got to play with my Accuquilt GO Fabric Cutter again

This is the Garden Quilt Top 

This quilt top was made from designs found in the Super Sports III pattern book, it was done as a SAL

 

This is the Birds for Prey top and will go to a Senior Man  

  Under the Sea Quilt Top, I love the shades of blues on this one and the critters are cute too.

I have also been doing some stitching... this little guy was stitched for a long legged bird quilt, I will be making the Holiday Birds and Dona will be sewing the 4 seasons birds

 

  This is a kit I had gotten in a box of kits at a Ebay auction, finally getting around to stitching some of the kits

This is a EQ7 design I made for the Teapot Quilt, which I just happen to be in the middle of making.. I am waiting on the last teapot square to come in to finish this one up 

this is the EQ 7 design for my vision of butterflies quilt.

each butterfly has been stitched by a member and they also chose the fabric to border their square. I am waiting on 6 more butterflies to come in to finish this one, can't wait to see how it turns out. 

I also have yet another Dolly Mama in the works and she is soon to be finished and I will be starting on the Farm quilt as all those blocks are in. Then it will be on to making Emily's Teal and gray quilt  as I just picked up the fabric for that one. Then there is a quilt for Jen to raffle off for their Sunday School Class..  I also have about 6 other family quilts to get busy on.

Plus with all the above, we were out shopping Saturday and I picked up a large box of apples so I can make the much requested Apple Butter...
