Goodbye to 2010...

Been busy finishing these tops before tomorrow so I don't have to put them on my goals list for 2011! The rail fence is out of my stash and the Home of the Brave pattern is for the Quilting for Christ group I meet with twice a month.

I have 12 projects I want to make in 2011 and 12 tops that need quilting. One of each every month should be doable, right? We'll see.....

Group Photo


Robert did a great job setting up this photo and jumping in before the camera flashed. Just wish we hadn't been missing two - if I knew how I'd photoshop them in.

Gift for a friend....

This little selvage tote finally made it to its new home last night. I've been trying to catch up with my friend, Sheri, for a couple of months but kept missing her. Consequently, I had plenty of time to remake this bag twice. The first time it had a green lining but I really didn't like it. This was the second time with the orange lining - didn't like it either. So, I ripped again and lined it in black. Much better.

Sheri & I have had a running joke going about orange for a couple of years so I just had to make her an orange tote! I think I'm out of orange selvages now!
