- Easy Street is fixed! ...haven't picked a border or backing yet....
- Quick flannel baby blanket for a co-worker. Her little boy Hunter made his debut today!
- I quilted and bound 2 table runners for my dear friend Ginny, but somehow only got a picture of the simple one...they both were reversible. Also made a pillowcase for her I Spy quilted last year ~
- Sewing along with online friend Terry again. I hope to make a quilt, but wanted to try this in a table runner first. Need to pick a binding.
my charm square pack
quilted last night!
~ the back ~
- Remember my checkerboard blocks back in November? Some have made it into a quilt for a wedding gift. Rajeana grew up with my dd Lydia, so a couple of the scrappy pieces are actually from Lydia's clothing of the past, I think 'Jeana recognized one of the pieces. The backing is made and this one is next on the frame....
- My sweet honey is in the Philippines for a missions trip with the church. It's his 3rd time to go, he is so excited. I have a constant pang of missing my Larry, but it is a perfect reminder to lift the team in prayer.
Oh, and just before he left, he had to file for unemployment...work has slowed down at his job :-(- I have found a bit of time to play with that new "toy", the Accuquilt Go!

- What I didn't share, it was purchased for me with gift certificates from my class!!

- Last, a late-posted photo of my sweet second graders in their Nativity program. They memorized and recited "Luke 2, The Christmas Story."
I
love these kiddos!
"He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they
shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:29-31
Oh, my, sorry about the unemployment!
ReplyDeleteWhen does Larry get back from his mission trip?
Love your Easy Street! Although I am totally overwhelmed by the number of pieces, I do love that quilt. Haven't seen an ugly one yet!
East Street looks wonderful. I like the idea of the pillow case to go with the quilt.
ReplyDeleteThere seem to lots of projects happening.
Best wishes to Larry for the trip and the job hunting.
Your Easy Street is stunning! Just stunning!!

ReplyDeleteEverything looks wonderful! I love your Easy Street, and your Whimsy runner came out great! :0)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing your Easy Street quilt top! It's gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll pray for your DH on his mission trip... and that a new job comes his way shortly after he returns home to you!
Your Easy Street quilt is beautiful, as well as your other things. I wish I had done it now, lol.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post - you've had a lot going on. Easy Street is beautiful! Sorry about Larry's job - I know about that. Glad he got to go on the mission trip.
ReplyDeleteYour Easy Street quilt looks great! You're much closer to being finished than I am. I love the quilting on your charm quilt. Great swirls. Sorry you are missing your Larry, but it makes the heart grow fonder. He'll be home before you know it. What a blessing it is that he could go on the mission trip. Can't wait to see all the stuff you make now that you have your new "toy". LOVE accuquilt stuff! The second graders are way too cute too. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour Easy Street is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYou get so much done! Love your Easy Street. What special 2nd graders. I love a children's Christmas pageant!
ReplyDeleteHi Pokey
ReplyDeleteI hope Larry is back to work again soon. You have been busy! I am working on the pieced borders for my GGS quilt. I love Easy Street--I will have to make that one someday. Take care. Gail
I love your I Spy and Easy Street quilts. Blessings to your DH as he travels. You have been very busy lately!
ReplyDeleteDoes using the Accuquilt Go make it so you don't have to square up HST? I would love that. Right now I'm squaring up 480 HST for my next quilt. I have to do it in shifts of 80 so my neck and shoulders don't get sore.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy. Lots of cute quilts. I really love the Easy Street quilt. The colors are great. I'll have to put it on my list of quilts to make.
Sorry Larry is away and without a job right now. It is so interesting to see what businesses slow down and which ones have accelerated. I work for an oral surgeon and we are busier than ever this year. It slowed down for a couple of years but this year it has just taken off again. I guess people still have to take care of their teeth.
Have a good weekend.
Congrats on finishing Easy Street...it looks great!
ReplyDeleteYou know I can't resist a quiltalong, so now I have to join in and I will blame/credit you!
Oh my goodness. Easy Street is gorgeous. Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe Petite Odile charm squares are lovely. Wonder how I missed picking some of those up? Some on line shopping may be in order! Love the table runner.
Hope things pick up work wise for Larry . I’ll be sending positive thoughts your way!
So many beautiful creations during the last month!
ReplyDeleteThere is so much quiltey eye candy here to gobble up! Blessings for a safe missions trip...I just was wowed by your Easy Street quilt! Sew very beautiful! Love your heart for helping friends and making handmade gifts to bless others!
