Completed and Given

Made these door hangers recently.  The pattern is in the Spring 2014 Quilts and More magazine.  

The pink and brown one was made for my aunt for hosting our annual family reunion.  The red and blue one was an early Mother's Day gift to my mother.  They are fun to make!  The door hangers are going to be a series.  Check out the Summer 2014 Quilts and More magazine.

Can't wait to get started on this one!  But I must finish one UFO before I start something else.

Retreat Challenge

Just returned from our annual quilting retreat to Magnolia Park Retreat in Odenville, AL.  There were nineteen of us in "quilting retreat bliss".  We had a great time!  The food was delicious once again.  Being the semi leader of this trip, I decided we needed a challenge.  So.... I issued the color book challenge.  I purchased 2 Spring color books and challenged the ladies to choose a color page, tear it out, and interpret it into a door hanger or other decorative item.  Here are the results:

I thought the ladies that accepted the challenge did a great job!  We plan to finish them for our next business meeting in May.

Enjoy!

First Completed Quilt of the Year!

Finished this quilt last week.  Gave to some special friends.

I'm going to have to work on my photography, ugh!  The fabrics are beautiful botanical batiks, but they don't show up very well in this picture.  

The name of the pattern is "Off Track".

Saturday Sewing

Enjoying a day in the "Scrap Lounge".  Just finished my 8th Suzy's Sack!  These little bags are really fun to make.  Sorry for the picture quality...I'll have to work on that.

Hope your Saturday is "sew" much fun!!
