Birthday quilt!

Here's my latest finish! It's a red and white birthday quilt for my middle niece, Karen! At Christmas she was hinting strongly that she would love a quilt...so Auntie Robin made it happen! I will not be giving it to her in person, as she lives several states away in NH, so when I get a pic of her with the quilt I'll post that as well.

Boy, it's nice to finish something bigger than a breadbox for a change LOL I really need to get moving on my UFO Challenge list though! I think my recent visit with my 2 quilt-crazy BFFs, Michelle and Peg, has given me some extra momentum so I intend to put it to good use!!

First Finish of 2011!

 

And it's an OH SO APPROPRIATE Snowman! LOL We received a little snow over the last day, but not nearly as much as was forecast! They keep telling us that there's more headed our way next week...man...I better get my snow boots ready! LOL

P.S. this little snowman has been working OVERTIME since I put him up...we're expecting ANOTHER large snowstorm this week...that will be approximately 1 sizable storm a week since Christmas!! Man..I better put up another mini and pack my snowmen away...I think I jinxed us! LOL

The Wool Crazy Pincushion Craze!

  Some of us have jumped on the Wool Crazy Pincushion bandwagon :) I'm participating in a wool pincushion round robin with the BPF retreat gals and here is my crazy base with my even crazier "scary-creepy" halloween theme! I think I"m going to love doing these and think there are more wool crazy projects in my future!!! Can't wait to see what develops with this pincushion!
