Another March UFO Busted

Yes!!  I finished another UFO that was on my UFO Busting list.

Here is my EQ7 2011 BOM.  I machine quilted it in the ditch.  I'm really happy with the way it turned out and I am very happy to have completed another UFO.

I also finished quilting and binding a cupcake quilt.

Don't know why the photo is so blurry....must be the photographer...LOL  One down and 4 to go.


I got my March Seasonal Applique BOM done.

Every thing is needle turn appliqued except for the shamrock.  It is fused.  I think that this block is very appropriate seeing it keeps snowing here and we are all thinking spring.


I got a few more blocks made for my Scrappy Trip Around the World quilt.

Like I said before I am using a Jelly Roll I got from Connecting Threads.  I didn't get a chance to work on it too much as I have been suffering from Sinus headaches.  I sure will be happy when this weather finally changes.


I have a few other projects waiting to be hand quilted and as soon as they are done I'll show them to you.  I've also been cutting some of my scraps into strips and square to use in some mini quilts I have planned.

Well the sun is shining and it's warming up a bit.  I need to run out and get a few things for Easter Dinner.  My daughter Kim is making dinner and asked me to make Potato Salad and Watergate Salad.  I think I better make extra as I love both.

Wishing you some warm weather, melting snow and friendship.

Hugs, Cathy

Oscars Tonight!!!

Oscar Night always brings back some fond memories.  When I was a kid, my Mom and my Aunt Bunne always got together on Oscar Night.  They would take turns at each other's house and would make a real evening out of it.  I always loved it when it was Mom's turn because she would let me stay up late.  They are both gone now....but the memories are still here.

Tonight while watching the Oscars I will be sewing down the binding  on my Autumn Plus quilt.

It is sitting on top of a very large pile of tops that need quilting.  I think that there are around 30...   I really need to get some quilting done.  This quilt is one of the projects that I listed at the beginning of the month that is on my UFO Busting list.  Check one off.

I got my Quilts by Cheri SAL quilt done.

I really like how it turned out.  I hand quilted it using black thread.   On Cheri's post she showed a little quilt she made out of extra blocks.

I had a few left over and this is what I made out of one block.  I'm sending this to my friend instead of the windmill quilt.  

You might remember that I made the girls in my family 12" quilts to hand on a table frame.  I decided I need to get started on making them more.  The first one I am going to make them is a Cup Cake Quilt to hang for birthdays.  

This is the first I have started.  I need to put a cherry on top.  I think the girls are going to like these.

Don't forget about the giveaway....you have until February "28".  Enter here.
Good Luck and thanks to everyone for being a follower.

Well I'm off to the sewing room.  I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

Hugs, Cathy
