Time Flies again!

I had every plan of posting more often...but I didn't.  So I have a lot to share.

1.  Sentimental Stitches 3030 Block of the Week.

Block 1

 Block 2

 Block 3

 Block 4

2.  Bee in My Bonnet Block of the Week.

3.  Barbara Brackman's Yankee Notions.

This is block 6.  It was supposed to machine pieced.  I didn't want to do that so I made a large miss shaped 9 patched and then I appliqued the curved pieces on to the block.  It turned out good.


4.  Celebrating Mary Brown.

This is last month's block.  It took forever to finish.

This is this month's block.  I didn't have enough light when I photographed it.  The background is the same as the first block.

Here are all the blocks for the first two rows (Minus the ones I just finished) put together.  Next up is the 4 block for the corner.


5.  Providence BOM.

These are the blocks for month 4.  So now all the blocks for the quilt are finished.  They are 12" finished blocks.


6.  Mrs. Lincolns Quilt.

These are blocks from Month 10.  I'm working on this quilt with Julie at juliekquilts.blogspot.com.

7.  Derby House BOM.

I have 2 more appliqued seed blocks to finish.  But I knew I wouldn't get them done in time.

8.  A Finish...finally

This is the quilt designed by a group of quilters led by Lori at Humble quilts.  I finally got it bound and a label sewn on the back.  I so love this quilt.

I tried to add links to this post but i can't.  Blogger says it no longer supports this.  Not sure if I like the new blogger...this is the old blogger.

I hope you all enjoyed the photos.  Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hugs, Cathy

A Finish

Is a finish no matter what size....

I started this little quilt in 2013.  Finished quilting it last month and put it up on the design wall to remind me all it needed was binding.  Well it stayed there for about 2 weeks until yesterday.  It fits perfectly on my table Quilt Hanger.


Yesterday I also made a couple more blocks for my Plaid Jacobs Ladder.  This project was started last year and is one of the projects on my "To Do" list.

Speaking of my "To Do" list...I know I showed you a picture of the list but not sure you could read it.  Here it is:

February's "To Do" List

2014 BOM's

Sugar Shack.  DONE

Globetrotting.  DONE

Hip Chicks (Just got the patterns for it)

Country Threads.  DONE

Quilt Doodles.

And my add-on project

Lori's Midwinter Blues.  I have finished steps 1 & 2 and need to do step 3 to finish it.

Now I'm sure I won't get it all done but I will make headway.


I've been working on a secret project....more to come later.


Don't forget about my Blogiversary giveaway.

I hope the weather is good where you are.  We had yet another snow storm come through.  I live north of Detroit.  The snow was so bad that 2 planes got stuck in the snow at Metro Airport.  We got about 6" of snow.  My sweet next door neighbor came over and used his snow blower to clear our driveway and sidewalks.  It was very much appreciated.  We expect more snow this weekend.

Stay warm and get some quilting done.  I know I will.

Hugs, Cathy

A Walk, A Finish and A Winner!!

It has been cool but sunny hear in Michigan.  Definitely frost on the Pumpkin weather.  Yesterday Terry and I went out to Metro Beach for a walk.

It is so peaceful walking by the canals.  The trees have lost almost all their leaves.

The geese were in flight.  I think they know something we don't know.  Bet they are glad they don't live on the East Coast right now.

I finished this!  It is the Monday Mystery project from Sherri Falls.  I really like it and plan on making a couple more.  She is planning on doing another mystery starting Monday.  You should join in.  The link to her blog, "Little Bits of This and That" is on my side bar.  I really love her patterns.

Now for what you have all been waiting for.....

The winner of the book, pattern, 2 FQ's, floss and needles is.......
