Red & White quilt....done!

At least the top is pieced....I still have to get the back ready and then I think this quilt will be the next to go to the longarm quilter. Pay no attention to the gravel pile, that's my husbands and the neighbor cats really like it as well.

 

No work was done on the NI blocks yesterday, but I did finish stitching on a Scrumptious fairy last night. I'll post a picture when I get the border added this afternoon. One more and I can make a quilt out of these little cuties.

I just realized that Christmas is 6 months from today.....AHHHHHH where does the time go?!?!? Seems like we just got done with the holidays around here. I'm looking forward to my sister and her husband coming for a visit in July. Pam and I are going to sew. She hasn't every really learned to make quilts before and I'm going to teach her. I am so excited for her to be here and Larry too of course! :o)

Well tonight is Dear Jane night so I'd better dust off that pile and figure out what I'll be working on. I don't think I've looked at Janiebright since last month, but once a month is better than nothing!
Later,

Lots of drooling going on here in California. I think that quilt is gorgeous. You know, I never liked the color red until I started sewing. Now it is my favorite for quilts.
