A few November finishes...

I had some tea toweling by the yard and 

thought it was time to cut them into tea towel lengths, 

hem them and 

add some embroidery and crochet edgings...

The snowmen a Bird Brain Designs Pattern #699

Snowmen by the Dozen.

I'm not sure where I got the kitten design...

I've had it for years.

and another one...

This Snowgal is 1 of 2 Bird Brain Designs found in the

Winter issue of Quilts and More magazine.

I used an Aunt Martha tea towel.

Wish I could find my magazine...I was hoping to stitch a few more.

I have been searching my house for 3 days...

I don't know where else to look.  

I'll keep looking for another few days...

if I can't find it I'll have to buy another copy.

Some of the toweling didn't have plain areas to add embroidery,

but they do have a crochet edging.

I completed my ALYOF November goal...

The ZEN pattern was in the February 2009 issue of 

American Patchwork and Quilting magazine.  

 It is a quick and easy quilt to make.

A sucessful finish for ALYoF and more...

...I finished the batik quilt and gifted it to Todd and Noreen.

They were packing up the car 

to go to Niagara-on-the-Lake for the weekend.

I just had to take a picture with Noreen's new Mini Cooper...

it's sweet...Noreen was camera shy!!

...and a picture in their back yard.

The quilt back is a green batik with a hint of lavender.

They loved it...I'm now cutting the pieces to make a second quilt.
It is a quick and easy pattern in the February 2009
American Patchwork & Quilting .  

My Hands2Help challenge quilt is also finished and ready to mail.

I used a Bear Country School layer cake and charm pack by Moda.
The quilt measures 48" x 56" .

 

The lilac bushes are gorgeous this year...

I can't believe I've finished it 3 weeks before I have to mail it.

I have till June 12...I've got time to make another one,
but I have lots of other projects on my 'to do' list...
we would like to be moved back to Canada by the end of the year!!
Still procrastinating...
