A Plethora of Pretty Pillow Tops

And it continues. The piecing and embellishing of the pillows. Next step....get the backs on them. Any questions?

100 Days of Doilies Day 38

Definitely not Chinese!

My Daughter-in-Law, Emmy Lou, gave me these. They are spectacular! Hand embroidered linen with crochet edgings.

Up Close and Personal With my Crazy Quilt Blocks 192/365

Some close up pics of the blocks I have been slaving away on for the past few weeks.

Embroidering the Ugy Brown So-Called Afghan 164/365

I inherited this blanket from someone who pretends to be knitter but gives up before actually finishing stuff. I thought it need some blue flowers to set if off. When it's done I will donate it to videoknitter for a tree yarn bomb somewhere.

New Crazy Quilt Samples (Mmmmm Chocolate!)

Busy busy Becky...My chocolate box quilt is really purdy. Thanks to Margeret for suggesting it! The pillow is for my landlord and the elegant brown, gold, teal was inspired by Pat Enos whom I sat behind at the Kingdom Hall one night.

I am NOT a slacker (I just play one on the Internet)

Yo people! Lest you think I have been slacking off in my absence from posting and other online activities THINK AGAIN!


Here's a short list of what I have been doing...I will try to name the pictures in order.

#1) Working on Leslie's Ravens and Roses Moley for the IME. Not working on the hat as I don't "knit hats for sailors for Lent":P

#2) I cut purple and yellow for art quilts

#3) I cut purple and silver/gray after an extensive search told me these will be hot colors for 2009

#4) Sewed blocks inspired by a friend's outfit. She better not sit in front of me again wearing it. I might cut it right off her back >:)

#5) Gathering all extra blocks sewn from remainders of my kit samples for possible sale at quilt guild or on etsy.com

#6) Working on the Celtic Autumn kit sample inspired by the trims and fabrics from Leslie

#7) Knitting on my Cable Luxe Tunic

#8) Working on a doofy hat in the darkest blue for my dancing buddy, Babs (I love you smookums xoxoxoxoxxo no it's not for Warrin... it never was... it was always for you you you)

Well I tried this twice. I have no clue where the last 6 pictures went. I guess blogger ate them. Maybe another time or maybe I'll follow Christina's lead and find somewhere else to blog
