What's Happening!

I have been so busy lately that my blogging has gone on the backburner.  I am really behind and I hope to catch up over the next few days.  I have plans for a few special posts in the near future. 

I did manage to get together with our friend, Tyler, before he leaves for school in Newfoundland, to give him the quilt I made for him.  He was very touched and he appreciated all the work that went into it.  It will keep him warm this winter.  The photo is horrible.  I only had my cellphone.  You can see why I had to make the quilt longer!  Tyler sure makes me look very short.  Guess I am.  He is almost a foot and a half taller than me!



Remember all the sewing I was doing for my niece's wedding?  Well, the wedding took place this past weekend and everything looked just wonderful.  Here is a shot of the head table with the burlap and lace runner and the flags I made. 





The quilt guest book went over really well and I now have lots of signature squares to incorporate into the design for the backing of the wedding quilt. 




And here she is....She was so beautiful, I cried a lot...when I gave the Toast to the Bride I had everyone crying, even the men!  
The happy couple 


I spent a bit of time today at my machine.  First time in almost a week!  I made a zippered pouch for my guild swap next month.  I have lots of sewing that needs to get done in the near future.  A few deadlines.  More on this soon. 

I hope you had time to do something quilty today!
