October finishes

I finished this placemat/table runner set, which was a Quiltaholics mystery several years ago.

here's the back of the placemats... and the camera strap!

here's the back of the runner

Then I \made another quilt for Quilts for Kids and sent it plus 2 others I made to QFK.  This is placed on top on a quilt on my bed, I couldn't get it out of the picture.  I took a picture of the other 2 here http://berylthepearl.blogspot.com/2013/10/finish-it-up-friday.html

Slowly getting the back log cleared in preparation for new mysteries and other starts!

Getting ready for Bonnie's mystery!

Halloween time

a fun little project!

Thursday finish

This one is finally finished and in use!  it is heavy and big....

and now to figure out a setting for these squares...

I've seen some put them together with flying geese sashing, which is cute.  Maybe I'll do that using the leftover scraps..

Where does the time go - Wednesday!

I am getting ready to put on the binding on the purple suffragette quilt, when Joy is done napping.  We are enjoying it as is!

I did finish a little cat mat, this design I wanted to try but found it more difficult than I hoped, so turned it into a sleeping mat for a cat.  Pepper likes to lie in the morning sun...

Sunday - Baptist fans!

 

I love doing these fans, they cover a lot of area with ease.  The back is a periwinkle blue. 

Pinning the Suffragette quilt

Ready to be quilted!

Finish it up Friday!

Here is the "bonus quilt" from the QOV mystery: it measures 42"x42"

This one was from some donated squares, with flannel on the back,  measures 60"x60"

and the QOV mystery, 72" square and heavy!

What's the next project??

 

Going to join the hexie craze

No pictures yet, but I have my Fiskars hexie punch for making templates, and am hunting for scraps of fabric.  I'm not very good at hand sewing, but the 2 I've done for practice are not tedious so I believe I will do all right.  Seems like a better use of time when sitting down watching TV than browsing my iPad (which I currently do!).
