Spring into Spring!

Be sure to check out the Spring 2011 issue of the free online magazine Quiltposium. You can set up your email and receive issues regularly--all free!
We are springing into spring here--and new projects are on the way. With our expatchers meeting this week, we view Karen's 'Quilt Diva' creative work.
Look at this neat handwork. Buttons will be added for her eyes after it has been quilted.
Remember this quilt top from our last meeting--here it is quilted by Sandy.
The quilt stitch is feather lively and shows up nicely on this brown backing.
Judy is planning a birthday quilt for her granddaughter, who is living in Phillipines. They will come for a visit in June and it will be ready for her. Pinks, pinks and more pinks are on the agenda. She is definitely a 'girly girl.'
She will be using a colorful center panel and is cutting her strips to make the surrounding blocks with esqued nine patch block pattern.
In an earlier post, this photo of Camilla with her bluebonnet wall hanging was left out--sorry!
Also, forgotten was the birthday fat quarter stash that Camilla received at the March birthday luncheon. She requested pastels.
And Spring wouldn't be complete without a little bunny hanging around. This one decorates Judy's dining room.
And her hallway invites you into this birdhouse--another spring happening.
Hope you have a little spring in your neck of the woods!

Beginnings of New Year Ideas

I'm already thinking about the new year and new beginnings--2024 was a lost year as far as new quilt starts--there was not a one began. ...
