Terry, loved reading about your ruler work which is very nicely done! What company makes the rulers you used in your month 4 of QAYG? Thanks!

Terry, that chicken quilt is amazing! It's so beautiful. I am impressed that you keep going even when you can't see the forest for the trees!

I've completed another month of the QAYG project:

The chicken is STILL in quilting progress:

I know I will finish it. Although, it is taking me longer than I had thought it would!

Beautiful quilt! You can feel the love and it fills my heart. Thanks for sharing!

For the label, I put a copy of the shopping photo along with a photo of them on their honeymoon in 1945 with her dad wearing his uniform. My friend is so very blessed to still have both of her parents.

Captures the spirit for sure ...Wonderful quilt !

Great quilt I hope your friend enjoys seeing it. 72 years is an awfully long time.

Hi Everyone,
I just finished sewing the label on a new art quilt which I have titled "Steady As They Go." It is based on a photo taken by a friend of her parents while out shopping. They will be married for seventy-two years this coming September. If you would like to see this piece, please visit my blog, A Positive Outlook. There are also some work in progress shots in previous blog posts.

I've been making slow progress on the chickens:

I also shared the photos from the challenge at the guild:

I guess I'd better get back to quilting on those chickens if I plan to finish before it becomes year 11 since I started this project!

I posted about making a block for the president of our guild here.

I posted the judges comments here. You asked for them so I delivered!

The grands had some fun making a few "bunny" recipes. I posted about it here

I also completed Month 3 of 8 with the Quilt As You Go project.

Hi all -

I just finished a blog post tutorial on the fold-over edge finish I used with my latest quilt, Puppy Love. It's a pretty straight-forward edge finish that gives the quilt a nice, clean edge. If interested, you can see the tutorial here.

Thanks!

Always terrific to hear from you Lorchen! Playing with the little ones should be tops on your list!
I won a few ribbons at our guild quilt show:

Don't know about you, but I am always on topic!

Spend the whole day (7am to 7pm) with the girls today so that their parents could have some quality time together. The 'little ones' are now 6 and 3, and such a lot of fun. If you want pictures, find me on Facebook and I send you some in a PM.

Back on topic: I don't have a blog. There simply isn't time.
