Moving Right Along

All three books are read and they were great!!!

I have a little bit to finish on the two baby vests for a wedding.... oh wait... I didn't tell you bout those, did I? A coworkers daughter is getting married very soon... she has twin grandsons... 10 months old..... who needed vests for their aunts wedding... so I made the vests and bowties...... I need to do a little bit of side adjustments and the button holes and then the vests will be done and I just need to add some velcro or snaps to the ribbons for the bow ties... I'll take pics when they are all done and get them posted.........

I have 6 of the 12 colors cut for the subway quilt........6 more colors then 940 white squares and I can start putting the blocks together.... I've decided to shoot for an end of summer finish for this one.........

I have all my templates and block sizes drawn and printed for the embroidered quilt and hope to get a few trial blocks done this weekend...... after the vests are finished......... we'll officially be starting that quilt next tuesday

Tonite I'm going to a quilt guild meeting. I've heard so many things both good and bad about quilds that I decided to just go and see for myself!
I know several ladies that go to the guild so I'm guessing it will be more good than bad!

Tomorrow is doctor day......... biannual checkup so we'll see how we do! I've been basically good... with occasional meltdowns lol..... as long as I'm sewing I'm good......... when I'm not sewing I get antsy and antsy leads to munchies and munchies leads to chips and cookies! not a good trail for sure! so we'll see

The binding pile has ONE.... yes ONE thing on it!!! The snowman wall hanging is the last thing on the current WOB pile!!!! Time to get busy and build it up again.... I have a frog UFO quilt ready for quilting......... the two current quilts... Kitchen Window and FeedSack need to be backed and batted and one Turning 20 UFO that needs to be sandwiched....... those will be the next 4 quilts to be done and wob'd! lol There are so many more to be done.........but I think up next will be my Giant Postage Stamp UFO....and my Eleanor Burns Goose Chase.......... also a UFO.... I think these lil buggers breed when I'm not looking! lol

Hopefully I'll have a good and productive rest of the week and have lots of fun things to tell you about next time!
