I'm joining Vicky over at LAQuilter and participating in The Short List.  To read more about it click on the short list and it will take you to the post.  Basically we are to pick out some projects that we want finished and have until the end of January to accomplish that.  

So here is my list:

  2. Santa Sampler - need to finish buttonhole stitching around Santa's/sew together into a top and then quilt and bind
  3. Dresdon Bloom - finish sewing points down/make borders/sew together into a top and then quilt and bind
  4. Angie's baby blanket - this will made out of fleece and is quilt as you go

OPAM Finally a Finish!


I finally have a finish!!  The blocks for this quilt were from an online swap a number of years ago.  I really like the colors and the fabric for the border and binding.  It was given to a friend for CASA to give to a needy child.

And here my sewing machine setup for the short term until room is painted and Heather goes back to Tallahassee.

Lately all that has been going quilty wise here is moving things around making room for Heather to come home for the summer.  It is so nice having her home!!  

I did get a new sewing table and am in the planning stages of how I want the room to look. 

Also purchased a day bed for the sewing room!  It is what I have pictured in this room for a long time and I am so happy with it!
Now if anyone can tell me where I hid those paint swatches I would love you forever!!  Heather is going to be a sweetie and do the painting for me! 

Also need to be pulling things together to take to the Quilt Retreat next month...that is fast approaching and will be here before I know it....

Here's the new day bed and sewing table!
