OK,here we go:I have 2 fav places to sit....

Okay...here are my Sunday items. My glider chair in the living room sports a Carol Doak scenic quilt and faces my TV and also sometimes sports my heated back massager! My poor batting is just stuffed into a broken laundry basket in a corner in my sewing room. My picture is from when I was four years old. The Ami Simms "Dog-Yeared" quilt has a little embellishment - note the lace around the Valentine for February. (That was such a fun quilt to make!) Picking the quilt I absolutely love was extremely hard. I love all my quilts! This one, though, is one of my favorites. It's the result of the second Carol Doak "Yours Truly Round Robin" from her Yahoo group. (You'll notice I've been using it in my signature.)

Zarah, I love your pincusions. I've just bought some canvas to do some of that type of threadwork. What is the underneath done with, plain fabric or the same as the top?

Lorchen, you have a beautiful collection of pincushion as well

Congratulations to all the members of the UGH Club! We made it! We survived not being in Houston!

Here is the final list for the scavenger hunt....

21. Where you store your batting/wadding
22. Something “embellished”
23. A picture of you as a child (a picture of a picture is fine!)
24. Your favorite place to sit
25. The quilt you absolutely love

For those returning from Houston or those who haven't been able to post this week but still want to "play", please feel free to post whenever you can.

Thank you to all those who participated and for those who commented! I hope you've enjoyed it!

Here are a few of Saturday's items: my favorite pin cushion...my favorite scissors (I have yet to find another pair that trims fabric like these applique scissors do) and a signed, old, friendship block found in an antique shop.IMG_1357.JPG

Last one for today is a tote made by my favorite friend

It's a nice sunny day today and here are are my photos

I've had so much fun seeing all your pictures! Such cute children/grandchildren! And, Lorchen, you could never show that adorable "thimble" too much--she's so precious! Wish I could participate, but I'm in Las Vegas at the home we purchased for retirement. (didn't bring a camera) I'm hoping to paint my sewing room before I have to go back to California on Wednesday. Maybe I can participate next year--I probably won't be in Houston next year, either! Hopefully, though, I'll be living full time in Las Vegas! Judy in Torrance/Las Vegas

And some cute stuff...

I almost forgot to post my entries from today!

Lorchen--she is just beautiful. Hmmm, I don't have a real pincushion and it must be because you have collected them all. Love the display.

20. Quilt made by somebody else - I can do that one. This is an amazing wallhanging made by my friend Maude Haeger. It's called 'Casa del Sol' . It's heavily beaded and the face is three-dimensional. I got it at a time when I went through a very rough patch in my life, and every time I looked at it, I just had to smile. It still has, and always will have that effect on me. It's like Maude quilted zillion of good vibes into this piece.


16. Favourite shoes are Crocs in any colour. I have a pile of them.

17. A few pin cushions


18. Let me bore you with another picture of that little thimble, this time with her very proud and happy Dad.

And of course, my grands are the cutest kids in the world! This was taken about 10 minutes ago as they were watching Ice Age 3 with grandpa in the basement.

Here we go again!

My favorite shoes - I took the picture at about 2:00 AM after my chorus performed at the International Competition - several of us were unable to sleep!

My pincushion/jar features a musical motif - surprise! And my two must-have scissors are both Fiskars.

Here are some of the exchange blocks I won a couple months ago, and really want to have put together by guild meeting on the 18th. (There's always one member who interprets "white" as tan/brown, isn't there?){!-- ia0 -->IMG_4227.JPG{!-- ia0 -->
