Getting to sew a bit....

...I gave up the spare bedroom in exchange for making it a full sewing room..........I'm much happier, though I wish I could have both at once !

I finished hand-quilting a challenge that I had accepted from Wanda Gayle.  She sent me some finished blocks in the Jacob's Ladder pattern, and some already cut-out flowers along with a pattern.  I assembled the blocks together and used the appliques in a little bit different way.  I hope that she will post a photo of the quilt, as I don't have a working camera right now, nor internet access at home. 

I also pieced a quilt-top today and yesterday, from batiks and Fossil Ferns that JodieAnn sent to me over time.  I used a mottled cream fabric as background and it came out just beautiful.  In fact that's why I'm in  town right now.......on my way to purchase a batting with which to put it together.

Hope everything is blessings with all of you !  Love,
