Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative

These two selvage cuties are ready to be mailed off to Ami Simms. She requested quilts for the Houston Quilt Show in October. You can get more information at http://www.alzquilts.org/. if you're interested in making a 9 x 12 inch quilt for her to auction or sell in Houston.

There are very specific guidelines and rules to follow but it really doesn't take a lot of time to make one and this is a very worthy cause. Money from the sale or auction of these quilts is used in research on finding a cure for Alzheimer's.

Making Baskets with Wannabees

I showed my bee how to make covered clothesline baskets this week. Here they are, all very focused on their project. I worked on a small round one, my seventh basket. I'm addicted! I keep finding fabrics I think would work well in this project - too ugly for a quilt but after it's cut in strips and wrapped around the clothesline, it takes on a totally different appearance. Now, what am I going to do with all these baskets?

More cards....

I was up early this morning and decided to make a few cards. I've moved my card supplies to the guest room so I can spread it out and leave it (not visible from the rest of the house). Now my hobbies have taken over another area! Will the garage be next?
