Pin Cushions

I made pin cushions today . They will be for my quilt group at one of the meetings. I had left overs and scraps left from the table runners I did for DD Jennie a week or so ago.
The batik one is my first one and I will keep it.
It's a nice way to spend part of a cold winter day. Making something for someone.
It's after midnight so It's time for bed. Good night and stay warm and safe! Flicsha

Luck of the Irish

This is the block for my quilt group. We all made this block at the meeting last time. They will all bring their finished project back at our next meeting. It can be anything just use it! Few rules and lots of fun seeing what we all come up with.
This was My Sunday project.
Keep sewing and quilting. Flicsha

Out with the old and in with the new.

 I finally got the new door put in on Sat. My DS Kelsey came home for the weekend and put it in. With the help of my DGD Brad. The poor old door was falling apart .

 Only on thing the lumber yard here closes at 12:00 noon here and we could not finish the trim.  Kelsey may be coming back in 2 weeks so with luck he will Finish it then. I hope the get all the trim painted on the front of the building this Summer. I would like to paint the green some other color or shade of green.

We got snow today . Was to be just .03 in. but so far it's about 4 in. Hurry up Spring!!
Say warm. Flicsha

It was a mystery?

 I ordered 5 Keepsake Quilting  Mystery Medley's . They have 6 fat 1/4's for $7.99 each. With shipping and cost, they came to about $1.50 each.
I really love 3 out 5.
 2 of them were Hoffman's.  Metallic prints . Love glitz and sparkle.
The vote is not in on the top one yet?  Land and sea prints  aren't my thing but most of them will work with other things I have.

 I really like the bottom one with the greens. grays, and black.

 When are Orchard Quilt group had our meeting last time I gave them all embroidered hearts on red felt for Valentines Day . You can see it on the center of the tin. I told them to go home and make it into something anything just use it.
This is my valentine. I had a tin from Christmas and used it. The red print was the only thing I had big enough to cover the top.( I have used up most all my Valentine prints) The fabric was from a medley I got about 4 years ago from K.S.Q.  I love a good Mystery.
 I will use it to keep special little things in.

I haven't been buying much fabric .
I am trying to use what I have and scraps from my DD Jennie's projects, So when I got the bag in the mail it was like Christmas to me.
Keep making and creating. Flicsha

Shamrock block

I finished my shamrock block I made for a sample at my quilt group. I had a fat 1/4 of the light print so I did a sq. in a sq.
I still have to put the other scrappy shamrock together. Maybe tomorrow.
I am going to use this on the coffee table.
Right now it's full of quilt magazines. I have a green candle that will look good on it.
Another nice day about +55. If only it would say that way!
Keep sewing and quilting. Flicsha

Another sample.

This is another 21" sq. wall hanging/ table topper. DD Jennie put it together the other day. I quilted it and put the binding on today. It got up to a sunny +55 today. What a nice change from all the cold temps.
I am looking forward to Spring. Stay happy and quilting! Flicsha

My weekend.

 I have been working on things this weekend. The top photo is a table mat/ wall hanging is about 19" sq. Jennie put it together and I did the binding.

 The green coaster is only about 5" sq. not much of a job. But I wanted to try one. I don't crochet much any more because of my arthritis. I may have to make some for myself. I do like it.

This is the main thing I worked on Sat. and Sunday. It's done. It goes with the other Thimbleberries runner. It is a 2 runner pattern.
I have other things in the works so back to the sewing machine.
Keep sewing  Flicsha
