Welcome to my blog. Besides my normal everyday life, I quilt, work in a quilt shop,and love to read quilt blogs. I embroider, do counted cross stitching, tat, crochet, knit and want to learn anything that requires the use of needles and thread. Come back often to see what new project I am working on or to read a tip or two.

Kitchen Quilter, WIPs

I have had several requests for a printout of the Kitchen Quilter program I did at Suppose Creative Guild at the first of this month.  It is over on the right under Tutorials.

You can see a couple of new buttons over there too.  Yes, I have joined Stash Bee and Doll Quilters Swap.  I think they will both be a lot of fun.  I get to use my stash, my new book on doll quilts and get presents from other quilters every month.  Its like a world quilt guild.

I promised pictures of more WIPs.  These are handstitching projects for a finishing contest at our local embroidery store.

 A redwork panel .  This is only half.  There is one window for each month.

 A Crabapple Hill garden angel.  There are four, one for each season. Sorry its not a great photo.

A candlewicking pillow.  All it needs is a pillow form to insert.  Of course I must finish the stitching.  It will happen.

Now I must run.  I'm working on a store sample quilt I want to get done so I can get back to some handwork.

Keep quilting and stay happy.

I finally got the directions for the woven quilt added.  I called it the No-Piece Throw.  Sorry I took so long to do it.  I have really been enjoying hand stitching lately.  I am doing more crazy patch blocks, working on a redwork panel that has a square for each month and other things that will show up on this blog eventually.  Why are there always more things to do and enjoy than there is time?

Stay happy and keep quilting.
