Lots to share today!

I'm finally showing you my little chair.

I finished this about a month ago and just never posted about it.

I hung it in the hall....right outside my laundry room.

It makes me smile.

This little quilt (art quilt?) took a lot of time.

Why didn't I use steam a seam and machine quilt???

But..... NO!

I had to hand applique and hand quilt it!!!

Don't ask me why.

Here's some of the stitches. You can see I'm not an expert at

that hand quilting!!

Every little or big quilt is an adventure...

and each time I think I get a little better at it.

THEN...

I have a little rescue effort that goes on at my house...

This box of squares.

some of them are mine...but MOST were given to me.

They sit under a bed...waiting!!!

Soooo.

When I want some mindless stitching I pull them out.

I liked this peacock fabric.

So I pulled a bunch of squares that I thought went with it.

And came up with this.
It all came out of that box!!
I think those little squares are so happy to be out in the sunshine!
And, I like the "quirky" way it turned out!






Then I've been working on these little squares.
I really like that OLD gray fabric!!



Here are some fabrics that I found in my stash.
There were not enough squares in that box
that really matched the pinks and gray!
Can you believe it??

Now I have to cut some more squares!

You can see that my Quilt Tops are piling up!
I haven't QUILTED a quilt for a while..
One of these days I'll do it.
But, NOT TODAY!


And last but not least....
Still working away on my Joseph's coat.

I enjoyed doing some of the basting around the outside edges
while talking to family and friends after the big meal yesterday!

I'm going to add this to amy's sew and tell!
