What wonderful quilts, Margarita! Your great granddaughter is really going to love her bears!

Hi, August has been great so far, finished Great Granddaughter's quilt.
Just need to make a label, before it gets to her.
"Abi's Blue Bears, play quilt"




Then my quilter retuned my "Candle Light"
Two fabric wall hanging. So now it is all,finished except for the label.

Wendy,
Take care of yourself. Cats can be finicky at times, but if you love your cat you just put up with it!
Do take ALL of your medications for proper healing!

Love the French muggle, love the Dots, and love the red and white quilts. Everyone seems to be having a wonderful virtual retreat! (Personally, Good and Plenty are my favorites!)

I thought all of you would appreciate this...........I was shopping the other day and had a new checker. As he was ringing things up, he stopped and counted the individual radishes in my bag. He came to 10. I asked him why he was counting them, and he told me the machine asked him "Quantity?" I told him "One!" He goes........."Oh! You mean like "one" bunch?" Duh! He then deducted $10 from receipt.

Anyway, after the cool down from my Hoffman Challenge, I am now working on a mini (nothing like Rosemary's! Not enough time!). and later, an art quilt for our September guild show. I'll post pictures when they are closer to completion.

Thanks everyone!

Wendy, I hope your injury is healing properly. That is scary!

Rosemary, we are so proud of you!

Lotti, what a little sweet dog.

I'm going to check out the mystery quilt....

Rosemary, congratulations with your little lovely little quilt.

Margarita

Love the muggie, Geneva! You are just so artistic and have an incredible eye!

Good Girl, Rosemary, you've done us proud!
And, sorry Philippa, but if Rosemary's quilt was not placed for an award, I'm glad yours wasn't either!
I'll really have to look at that mystery quilt now... With everyone joining in I also want to play
No choccies for me tonight, but just home from a great Thai meal with my friends Daniela, Claudia and claudia'd doggie, 'Minou'

Good night and have a great weekend

Just back from FoQ. The 1st, 2nd & 3rd placed ones were beautiful - I don't mind being beaten by them. Wendy you will love Phillipa Naylor's one, which unfortunately was unplaced because it was too big

Lorchan loved all of her pressies and told me to chase her up if you don't see her here in the next few weeks. I explained that we were doing all of our socialising here in the forum, and not using the community section, as we found it easier here. She has a great project on the go for Southwell Cathedral, but it is needed to be finished in quite a tight deadline for the size.

I have bought fabrics for Terrie's mystery quilt - should be interesting, one of the fabric I pulled from the stash is a real wild card and my highlight fabric is certainly that By the way I left the list of quantities for it with Lorchan and depending on circumstances she might join in. She was asking how frequently we would be getting the clues and all I could say was that it was a 'mystery' at the moment.

I have also bought some fabric for a convergence quilt, it has been on my bucket list for a few years now, and I saw someone buying the perfect batiks for it, so I had some of the same and a couple of others to have a play with.

Sorry no photos, just haven't the time before we go away - you will have to wait for Wendy's trip.

PS I also chased Pam Day to give us a few moments of her computer time, instead of spending it all on fb.

I'll live recklessly pass the dots.

Thanks Annis I'm quite taken with hexies since making some for this years BOM, I'll take a look.

Love the French mug rug Geneva.

I've been out of action for a few days after getting cellulitis in my hand and arm from a cat bite. I only wanted to shut her away safe while the builders were here. I have sparkly new bathroom, out with the burgundy bath and pink tiles yuk! Hand mending ready for the quick draw with the credit card at the Festival of Quilts tomorrow. I shall be admiring your commendation Rosemary

Congratulations Rosemary.
Wish I could have seen it.
Have a great time with all the TQS girls
Anne

I'll take some of those Dots, Geneva. I buy them once a year in a mixed package of candy for Halloween. My DDIL likes them too so have to share. Once quite a few years ago I was given a large package with individual packages inside. I ate them for several days and thought they didn't taste quite like normal. Then I woke up with a bad case of vertigo (at least I think that's what it was) which lasted for several days. I was home by myself and it was late afternoon of each day before I could actually function. I ended up throwing the rest of the candy away. I haven't had that to happen to me since and have no idea if the candy was the cause, but it's a strange feeling not being able to lift your head off the pillow without feeling like you're going to pass out.

Congratulations Rosemary!! That's exciting!

Rosemary, your quilt is a winner! We all "worked" with you on it, so we know first hand.

Annis, your red quilts are terrific. I love how they all look so different in the same colorway.

Thanks for the comments about my grandson. He is a cutie and such fun. I love being graneva.

I finished the little mug rug for my dau in law. She loves Paris and I found some fabric with the Eiffel Tower on it. Used some scraps laying about on the table. My other dau in law received a birthday card with the little Eiffel Tower charm on it and gifted it to me for the mug rug. I love making these little guys.



Here is the back





Does anyone want some of my Dots? They are great for getting stuck in your teeth! That way they last longer!





Have a good day and weekend end. Keep us posted Rosemary on the show and Lorchen.
