Joyce's Maybellene Quilt....

This summer Joyce tested out my Maybellene pattern with a batik layer cake and a few charm packs.  It turned out very summery and beachy....at least, to me it looks beachy.  It sort of looks like a day at the ocean so I quilted my favorite panto, Bloomin' Stars, on it yesterday....

And an up-close shot...I love the stars!  This is a lovely panto that goes well with everything...

Rebecca and I have been busy making fall table runners with some of my plaids.  We probably have about 10 made for my soon to be open Etsy shop.  I'll post some pics as I get a few done...

School is busy so quilting comes at the bottom of the list right now....but I am still working on stuff.  I will do what I can to keep up on the blog, but work comes first, then family, the dog, housework....etc.

Happy Quilting!

Baby Quilts...

These two are ones that I made in the last few months...The first was a tester for the Extra Credit pattern.  It is quilted with the Daisies and Loops panto and will be offered up for sale on Etsy as soon as I have it bound.  Here it is...

And a scrappy trip along quilt that I made at an all day workshop this summer.  I didn't love it as much prior to quilting but now I'm considering making another one!  This is quilted with the Garden Frills panto...and will also be available for sale on Etsy soon...

In addition to sewing, I've been doing some beading.  I made three new necklaces last week...kind of long choker length...

An up-close shot...

Anyhow, that is how the last week has gone for me.  Boo hoo that school started again, but now I only have three years and 175 school days until retirement!!  Yeah....

Happy Quilting everyone!
