tree skirt in progress

My quilting Niece came and left!

Her goal for the week-end was to make a tree skirt.... I tried guiding her to simple skirts... but oh no  we did a chevron strata quilt....  cut cut cut   design design design... sub cut using wedge ruler  cut cut cut. Than sew together 32 wedges... phew.  It is lovely and I shall post an image but my all that young energy...

On other days last week I started a triangle quilt... finished the start top...  sorted scraps  cut scraps down to sizes...

Sun is out :Dog's asleep

I am going upstairs to sew.  The plan is to finish some microwave bowls... And do the block of the month!!!  Called card tricks....

I  started this quilt in October and finished it in January.  Longarmed with beige in a leaf and curique design.

New Years Resolution Do not forget to Blog

I believe Facebook fits enough needs that I have stopped blogging.  12 years on Open Diary and now I write sound bits on facebook.  Today promised absolutely blisteringly awful weather : icey rain. I feel the urge to crawl into bed ... strongely....

So up to get dressed... Than trim and photo the 16 patch/x block quilt using the .99 cent Missouri Star sale charms.... Now called Impulse Irene... hence forth.

Plan for today, organize frig ( husband is going nuts at how churned up it is with vegetables jammed every where)  finish the Christmas star top.  Work on list of UFO's.
