After all the sneek peeks.....here's the Carpenter's Star! All ready for the show!

I matched the binding to the border. I think it came out great!

Now let's see if it wins any ribbons!

I guess it's time to catch up on the blog.
A very dear friend of ours was diagnosed with stage 4 Breast cancer. What do quilters do? Make them a quilt!

We're meeting for lunch this next week & I'll be giving it to her.  Complete with a bag to carry it in  when she goes for treatments.

I sure hope she likes it, 'cuz I sure do!

Where does the time go?  I've been busy, that's for sure!
Here's a couple of quilts for a customer that I just did.

Just a little freemotion playing!

I liked that one so much that I made one for myself, only smaller.  It's going to be in the quilt show this year.

I named it "Black Tie Affair"

Well, I've been busy these last couple of weeks.  Here's a baby quilt for a customer.

Then, I had been over at Virginia & we were going through some stuff that had come with her longarm (she bought it at an estate sale) & ran across picture from a quilt show in 1997. One quilt really caught my eye. A Bow Tie. In studying it, discovered it was the 10-minute block! So I came home, went through my charms & made this...........

I decided to give this one to our newest Grandson, due in October.

Well, here's some more on the Carpenter Star.....Final will come tomorrow, as it's almost finished!

I know, beat me with a wet noodle, I've been neglecting my blog!  Here's a pic of the girls with Floyd. He'd just gotten home.

Aren't the the most precious little girls??

I've been busy working on a Carpenter Star quilt for our upcoming quilt show in October. It's 84" X 84".
Here's the border & sashing.

More to come!
