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

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

Projects, The Traveling Stash, and A Giveaway

I go from a post every other month to almost one a day.  Guess I just have so much to share.

First, some projects I have been working on.

I finished the pieced half square triangles and the the corner triangles.  Lori has done such a fantastic job with the directions.  I love doing her QAL.

Next up is the Sugar Shack BOM.

This is February's block.  I love it.  

Here are January and February blocks together.  These are not colors I am used to working with.  I usually use dark country colors or reproduction fabrics.

I mentioned "The Traveling Stash".  Last week Audrey at Quilty Folk  said she had received the Traveling Stash and asked if anyone would be interested in receiving it.  I put my name in and low and behold I was chosen.

This is what I found.  Too many goodies....what a hard time I had picking what I wanted.

This is what I chose.  Can't wait to start a new project with them.  I'll let you know I really want to keep it all.

This is what I added to the mix.

Now if you would like to be the next recipient of the Traveling Stash leave me a comment stating you would like a chance to have the Stash visit you.  I will be drawing a winner on Saturday.

Now don't forget about the giveaway I'm having for the first week of February.  I am going to have one each week for 4 weeks to celebrate my 3rd Blogiversary, my 25th Wedding Anniversary, Valentines Day and Hoping for an early Spring.

This is the book I am giving away for week 1.    To win a chance, leave me a comment that you are a follower and how you follow me.  For a second chance, blog about the giveaway and leave me a comment stating this.

Now please leave separate comments for the Giveaway and the Traveling Stash.

I want to thank you for being a follower and all the kind comments I have received over the years.  Love you all.

Hugs, Cathy
