First Completed Quilt of 2009

I haven't posted anything in awhile, but that doesn't mean life has been slow!
We seem to keep ourselves pretty busy lately. Some of what has been going on this month is--Ballet, scouts & ACE club, birthday parties, Tony playing "Church Ball" and breaking his knuckles---again, all of us playing the new Wii, watching Taylor play basketball, playing full contact straws (very entertaining), serving in Young Women's, helping Mom who just had some surgery, hanging out with Family and Great Friends. And of course, I have been quilting--like crazy. So things are good around here.

Here is my first completed quilt for 2009!


This is a quilt I've been working on, commissioned by Ashley. Ashley is 11 years old, and has saved enough money to have a new quilt for her bed! How cool is that?

The pillow is an extra little surprise for her. I hope she loves it!



And here is a little peek at just some of the mess...errrr I mean projects, going on around my sewing table....errr I meant kitchen table.

Love the pillow you made to go with the quilt Allie.
This is the first time I have visited your blog, your comment about copying your work is a good one, I think I should do something similar.Thanks for stopping by my blog, I love that piped binding & no hand work!
Blessings,
Roslyn
