Projects in Progress

Back in June Doreen at  Aunt Reen's Place was offering a Jelly Roll Sew Along.  I found a jelly roll in my stash Leaf Haven by Michelle D'Amore that I decided to sew along.

I have half the quilting finished.  This really is a great sew along.

  This will be a wedding gift.

My  rainbow "red" block

I did mange to finish this I Spy Sudoku quilt for the hospital gift shop.

Rainbow Block Saturday

At the end of June I didn't have time to sew any more yellow blocks.  These flowers were my yellow inspiration for the rest of the month.

                                                 I have made a couple of teal D4P blocks.

                                       I have been busy working on this "Rainbow" baby quilt.

I Spy Baby Quilt Finish

End of May For Me

I plan to continue doing May For Me things.  As I spend the time walking I wonder about the residents where I walk.  As you can see it is a very peaceful place.

Some residents I remember very well and miss.  Some residents I don't know anything about them. 

I even found my name on one tombstone.   But she was older than I am.

It was nice to see they have been remembered by someone who misses them.

I take my Ipod with me and the residents don't mind if I sing.

It is a very pretty cemetery.

Thanks Marcia for hosting May For Me Celebration.

Progress Update

MAY FOR ME

I am still walking just haven't had time to walk everyday.  I have been walking in a very peaceful area.

H2H CHALLENGE

The quilt for Happy Chemo is finished.  The quilt will be in the mail today.

RSC13 CHALLENGE

I have made some 16-patch blocks. 

My other finish.  Is this graduation gift.  The young lady I made it for loved it.  The colors in the quilt are the colors of the university she is going to attend.

May you have a wonderful Memorial Day week-end.

Happy sewing.

Sunday Update

My life has been crazy.  I have been extremely busy at work.  New software programs to learn, an audit this coming week to get ready for, and the last few days of school for students.  So I decide it was time for:

May For Me

Sharon at Vroomans Quilts posted about May For Me.  It is about spending "ME TIME" and I really need this.  I used to walk everyday no matter what the weather was.  Over the years I stopped walking but not any more.  I have walked everyday but one since April 27.  Thanks for the motivation  Marcia & Sharon. 

Rainbow Blocks Update

I have finished my "Green" I Spy Quilt except the binding.

 

Here are my "Blue"  D4P blocks.

I am trying to catch up with the other colors of pink, purple and orange for my rainbow quilt.  I do have a problem because this is the only orange and purple scraps I have.  Hopefully before the year is over I can have some more orange and purple to make blocks.

Happy Sewing.

H2H Update and Green Day

As I looked at my schedule for the next few months I realize I don't have time use these blocks for my H2H Happy Chemo Quilt.

I really don't think Sarah or Em is going to care if I send this quilt instead.  I think someone will find comfort in this green and yellow quilt.

The best thing for me is the quilt is done all except a label.  I know I can get that done before the deadline.

I didn't get to sew very much on my RSC13 "Green" challenge this week.  I made one block that is for a block swap and I put the borders on the I Spy quilt.  I plan to have the I Spy quilt finished by the end of April.
