Happy tuesday everyone, we're having a beautiful sunny day but rain the rest of the week and cooler too.
I posted some pic's of a skirt I made for Margaret. For some reason when I added the bottom ruffel it balloned on the top, not sure I like it or not but it's for Margaret so will let her decide if she likes it. Am making a jumper for the little one with the same pink so she won't be left out.
I decided on what to do for the backing on the "Sue". I'm using 5" charms and will sew them togethe…

I still love your Sue blocks. All the lace and embroidery embellishment - really adds. I'm working on a table runner. Usually don't work with pink too much, but this particular pattern caught my eye and I like the way it is turning out. I'll try to get a picture posted when it is finished. Also hope to get to some Christmas gift projects before long. My work bench is a mess with fabrics tossed everywhere.
Hugs from Nebraska. PQ
Whats the weather doing in SC? boy the news shows the snow issue up north in DC, maine, NY really bad for this time of year. What a winter for everyone. Our weather is Oregon normal...rain, sun, rain but the crockus and tulips are beginning to come up so I beginning to think Spring is on the way....thank goodness. Gotta run.....my doggie wants me to take her out. Have a nice afternoon/eve.
Glad to have you as a friend. Sounds like you really jumped right in when you started making quilt. Queen size are so hard to quilt on a home machine. Did you even get your coat to come out ok that you were working on? I tried for a while to sew clothing, but I was not good at it at all. I think I will just stick to quilting. I have been having so much trouble and pain in my hand and arm that I haven't been able to sew since early December. I am having surgery on February 17th, so I will hopefully be back to sewing soon. I leave this Friday to go to Florida for a week. My brother is getting married there. I am really looking forward to going. Still have a few things to pack yet, so I better get going. Take care and keep in touch.

I didn't get any sewing done this past weekend as we went to Tillamook to visit my dad. Today I spent running around doing errands but tonight I'm going to spend at least 2 hrs. in my sewing/craft room to straighten and organize it a bit. I guess by reading everyones blogs that I'm not alone on having a messy sewing room as everyone mentions they are or need to work on cleaning them. hehe I've decided that I just need to stop plopping stuff down where ever!
I agree with you on the "Aurora" book....Jane did a wonderful job researching and writing it. I actually came across the book by walking through the book area at our Costco.....a great find. I've been meaning to go back and pickup another one for a friend of mine that lives in Wallace Idaho for a christmas gift next christmas.
I have a lot of projects I'm working on but I'm excited and waiting for a pattern for a table runner I ordered from one of our ladys on this site, she lives in Moses Lake, Wa. She has some pretty nice patterns, some easier than others. If you wanted to look at her patterns, look her up in the "Quilters" section...her name is Debbie Snyder. I love this site...it has been so much fun to make friends and share our lives and ideas. Well...kept you long enough...gotta run and get to my room cleaning, later....
