Fall Table Topper


Fall Table topper from Judy Martins book that I blogged about a short while ago.  I am hoping to take it to the quilters tomorrow, should have it bound and on my table just in time for Fall :)  Its quite long so I had my daughter hold it up for me, try not to look at the background mess...lol!

Do you have a fall project you are working on?

Happy Stitching,

Happy Birthday

Today would have been my moms 74th Birthday.  She loved yellow roses, so I went to the local garden centre and bought a yellow rose bush and planted it in one of my flower beds in my back yard.  She also loved Inukshuks, so on our family camping trip to Mt. Kidd this year, my sister and I collected the perfect rocks.


So here is my little tribute to my mom.  I think she would have loved it :)

Not a day passes without her in my thoughts.

So Close to Done!!

Here is a sneak peak at my daughters wedding quilt that was supposed to be done over a month ago!!  Better late than never I guess.  She had asked for a Wedding Ring Quilt, but that just didn't happen.  So I asked her what colours her and Jason liked and Blue was it!  A very blue quilt it is.  I was inspired by the quilt in the book called, 
Weekend Quilts and Projects by Barb Adams and Alma Allen.  The Quilt is called Lazy Morning.  I wasn't fond of the plain 14" squares and decided to do sashing and corner stones instead.  

Still not quite finished but I have worked my butt off on it today.  Hopefully in the next couple of days I will have it all finished and off to the quilters!!

Happy Stitching,
