Fabric for the next quilt

Hi friends!
I am still working on this !!!!

But i got my fabric for my next quilt yesterday.
It's for Alex and his wife Kim, they wanted 'Camo'

And this will go in the center!!!

I though this might be a better picture.
 I think they will love it because Alex loves to hunt.
Have a great weekend friends.

Aden's Quilt

Hi friends!
Beautiful day!
I started free motion quilting this and didn't like so now I am taking that out !
I have decided that I don't like the battening, it's some that sis gave me and it was just the right sizes.
But I hate it , it's just fuzz!
So it will take me a while to get this done.

See that?  I don't like it one bit.

It's a long job to get out all of those stitches.  But it will be worth it in the end!

You know what I will be doing for a few days.

Have a wonderful day friends.

Quilting and cleaning

Hi friends!
Beautiful day!
I started quilting Aden's quilt yesterday.
I like this foot for just sewing, you can see the 1/4 inch marking good with it.

You can see it better in this picture.

Not a very good picture but last week i opened her up and thread was wrapped around that what ever !so i cleaned it off and cleaned up my baby.  She had started breaking thread.

I cleaned a pile out of her and now she runs like a top!
Have a great day friends.

Hi friends!
I left you with this finished quilt top the other day.

I sandwiched it before the shot they gave me Wednesday wore off because antibiotics make me feel so bad.  I haven't sewed any since.  Maybe i can get it quilted some time this weekend.
Still looking for that fabric for Aden's parent's quilt . It said it would be here yesterday but didn't come.  Maybe today!!!!!
Have a great weekend friends.

Aden's quilt

Hi friends!
I put one more row on the top
and started adding the first border.

Here i have all the first border for Aden's quilt.

A finished flimsy!  They wanted it blue and brown.  This is plenty big enough for him a tottler bed or a twin .
I am hoping to get it sandwiched today so i can start quilting it.
Hoping to get his parents quilt finished by his birthday in Sept. so i can get them both to them near his birthday.
I ordered their fabric and it should get here this week. They wanted a 'Camo' quilt

 I love that little boat of sock monkeys.
This is a all boy quilt for my sweet boy who always wants to get in my lap.
Have a great day friends.

Aden's quilt

Hi friends!
Got a few more rows on this week, saw this picture and took the middle bottom one out and shortened it.

I may put another row on the top to make the boat right in the center.
Got some cowboy fabric to make a small border and some brown to make a bigger one.
Not in any hurry because they are gone to Alabama for two weeks .
Going to order some camo fabric to make his parents a quilt.
Counted and i just like 5 big quilt's and One little boy quilt to do this year.
If i order it now it should be here this week and i can get started on it.
Have a great day friends.

Dresden Quilt

Hi friends!
I added borders on both sides of The Dresden quilt.  That should make it fall about right.
I like my quilts to hang off the side a good 12 inches so you can use them as bedspreads.

That is about right!

I added a small border on the top and bottom. and quilted all of them and sewed my binding down.
Binding was easy because i only had enough for it out of one fabric.
The small Santa's
It takes a lot of fabric for a guilt this size.  I have probley used 12 yards in the top and a king sized cotton batten which cost more than poly.   And Sis gave me a lot of muslin so i used that for backing.
if i didn't have that i would have used a sheet for about 15 dollars at Walmart.
Have a great day friends.
