Schedules

My schedule was different tonight.  I normally get my hair cut right after work, but I missed my appointment last Monday due to weather.  So it was rescheduled for tonight at 6:30.  Came home from work and did some sewing on the bonus block I showed you last night.  Then left for my appointment.  Back home and I'm not sure how much more I'll get done.  Oh well, at least I got something done.

Bonus

I have an added bonus from making two table toppers.  I had all of these half square triangles left from the flying geese blocks.  I think I might make another table topper with this.  I'll just add a border.  Or two.  Or not. I'll see what happens.

Another Topper

I made a second St. Patrick's Day table topper today.  I know I have a couple more kits that I have purchased and I can't find them in my stash. I'm on a mission to find them as they go together very fast.  Wish me luck!

Another Confession

I have another confession, I didn't do my 15 minutes yesterday.  But I did lots today to make up for it! 

First, this morning I went with my friend Jeanine to A Quilting Place http://aquiltingplaceomaha.com/
and I signed up for a class, as this is the year I am BONDING with my long arm quilting machine.  I have dabbled at it, this is the year I get serious.

Then I came home and finished piecing this table topper using a pattern from Prairie Star Quilts.  I decided that my St Patrick's Day fabric has been in my stash long enough and it was time for it to become something.

UPDATE:  I see that I have one block sewn in wrong. Guess who is ripping and resewing?

UPDATE #2:  It's all fixed and ready to go.  I lucked out on where this happend, I didn't have to rip the whole block apart.

New Project

Yesterday I started a new project, a table topper for St. Patrick's Day.  I took this picture and I hate the way the white background turns yellow.  (I forgot to turn on my true color lamp.)  I cut out some more pieces tonight to go with this.  I love the Internet, I found the four leaf clover in free clip art. The bonus, it was just the right size.

IT"S DONE!!!!!!!!!

 Here are the first pictures.  Notice how nicely it covers the box spring on the king-size bed?  And how it wraps around the pillows?  

And a close up of some of the fabrics.  I have AmandaJean at
http://crazymomquilts.blogspot.com/ to thank for this wonderful project.  Check out her tutorial for the ragged squares quilt.

I feel kind of lost now that this is all done......

Computer Illiterate

This is the front

This is the back.

 Worked on my binding today since we had a snow day.  I'm almost done! 

I did take a little time to make this mug rug as I wanted to enter in "Sew I Quilt" blog's mug rug contest.  BUT, being the computer illiterate that I am, I couldn't figure out how to get my photo to her.  You can't just add it to her Flickr set and I couldn't find any button on her blog on how to contact her.  So I'm sharing this with you and then I'm going to go make some hot chocolate and enjoy it!  (The mug rug is reversible.)
