Sew Night --fun stuff

I took some of my block of the month blocks from two years ago to cut out but didn't even get one done.
Remember the dish towels that Jerilu was working on?  She finished them and they are so dang cut I think I might take up embroidery   It seems like I wasn't very good at it and ended up only doing cross stitch as that was hard to mess up.  The complete set.
this one is my favorite. 



Jeri is now working on a wool wall hanging she has it pinned together it is going to be a great. 



I happened to see her needle holder and took a picture for you all to enjoy.  Yay, spring is coming and with it strawberries.  
Becky got her Irish chain. from the class she took from Melissa last winter, back from the quilter.  Very pretty. 


Then she decided she would learn to applique, she wanted to do it a specific way and I didn't get all that she said she did but she followed these tutorials  .  There are eight of them altogether.  She said she watched them all before she started.  This is the result so far.  I may have to check the tutorials out.  
Until next time.

I just can't let 1-11-11 go by without posting. This was my first completed quilt.

I made this for my son who rode barebacks at rodeo's all around the country.  I had always wanted to do a lone star.  This one quickly cured me of that.  Oh my, it was not easy and in fact Claudia finished this star for me.  It was a fun quilt to do other than that.  Sorry the colors are bad but it is a grey day today.

I used the flash on this one but don't know if it better or worse.  This is the same pattern but in a different size as the boots on Dianne's quilt from yesterday.
Tomorrow night is sew night and I can hardly wait.  I don't know what project I will take but I can tell you one thing for sure there are plenty of UFO's to choose from.  I have been dutifully putting the fat quarter BOM in a safe place to work on when I have the inspiration to do the cutting.  It is such a cute pattern and the Kate Spain fabric is really great but I just can't seem to get going.
I hope you are all able to stay warm and sew. 
Enjoy!
