Never Ever

I never want to  be in this position again! I have to be done with Christmas sewing Thanksgiving weekend and I am way behind!Last year I dedicated the second Sunday of the month to gift sewing and really liked the feeling of accomplishment. Why,oh,why did I not continue with that in 2013???

I have been reading this summer and  quilting with my friends on Mondays. However, I need to get serious about heading into the sewing room after dinner. Time is marching on.

I do have a few finishes to share with you. 15 months ago a cute little kindergarten boy drew a picture for his grandmother.  His mom posted it on Facebook and I immediately knew it had to be made into a  pillow. A great kindergarten memory as he enters second grade! LOL ! I hope Natalie reads this!


During this past year I have been working on a BOM sponsored by Quilter's Quarters in Zephyrhills , FL.

Each month we received a new pattern and two colors in batiks. I am anxious to return south and finish the quilt. You make 9 blocks,keep one, turn 8 in and receive 8 blocks back in different colors. This is a VERY large quilt! Posted below is one of the 108 blocks I have made!




We have frost warnings tonight so I am off to cover the flowers before I head to the sewing machine. I WILL be ready by Thanksmas .

In stitches,
Pieceful
