Tammy 4 All Seasons Blog Hop

Think vintage

and cross stitch...says Mdm Samm 

and I immediately knew I wanted to join the blog hop!!

I have never cross stitched but that didn't scare me away.

...I am still stitching...I'm not very fast at it but I will be ready!!

I'm posting on January 20th...

It seems I'm always losing my spot...counting and recounting

....now I'm using a post-it note 

and it helps me keep on the right line.
I'm getting faster!!

Cross stitch patterns were designed by Brooke Nolan

and Cori Blunt designed the pinnies to attach to the Tammy bags...

they are SUPER CUTE!!!

Join the talented ladies posting today....cheer them on

and make there heart smile!!

January 2015: Lovely Year of Finishes ~ Goal Setting Party

Thank you Melissa and Shanna for hosting ALYoF for 2015.

My  January 2015 goal setting is to finish this 30's quilt...
it has been a flimsy since July...
It measures 54" x 54"

It may look familar to you as it is similar to  

my June 2014 finish for ALYoF...

same block, same 30's fabrics.

This one measures 58.5" x  81"
I do love a 30's quilt!!

Happy New Year and December's ALYoF Finish

Happy New Year ... 

I'm hoping 2015 will be a better year!!

Mr. QnQ is doing well...still no decision made about surgery.  

He did see the neurologist on the 29th, I stayed in the car as

I didn't want to spread my germs.

After 4 days in bed, I believe I am on the mend!!!

I really didn't think I was going to finish my December goal.

At noon today, I still had not started the quilting.

We had a few errands to run this afternoon,

I had a nap when I got home and didn't feel too bad...

at 11:00 it's a finish!!

 The wall hanging measures 34" x 44"

 I quilted it with stippling and added a few paw prints.

Mr QnQ's cousin opened a veterinary clinic this year...

I'll see if they would like it for the clinic.

I love how it turned out.

My goal is to get it in mail to send to Bird Brain Designs on Monday so it

can be included in the Road to California Quilt Show later this month.
