Here is are just a few things that I have going:
First up is this cute block of the month being offered FREE on the website of Shabby Fabrics (Just click on the name for the link). This is block one and the new block comes out on the 7th of each month - so don't miss out. I had to hurry and finish this one last night and the new one is due out today!
Next up is a table runner for my sister-in-law, Debbie. She is a real sweetie and doesn't even mind that for her birthday (Jan 30) she just got to see it in its unfinished state. I have it all ready for quilting but can't decide on how to quilt it. Any suggestions?? Anyone???? Help!
And just to keep myself busy, I am also hand quilting this Be Attitudes quilt for my granddaughter, Taralyn, a big girl quilt. When the grandkids move from the crib to a bed, they get a big girl or big boy quilt. Taralyn has a new brother on the way this month (due Feb.29) and will be evicted from her crib in the early summer - I got to get busy on this one. Speaking of little Tobias's expected arrival, I have not even started on his baby quilt, and then there is Timothy who has been in his big boy bed now for several years (he's 5 years old!) and he is still waiting on his big boy quilt. What's a Granny to do? These babies are coming faster than I can quilt!I have a few products I want to tell you about, but that will have to wait until the next time.
Thanks for stopping by,
Teresa

It's so fun to watch new grandma's when those babies come all in a hurry. It makes me think I should get started now and put quilts in a Grandma hope chest LOL. Looks like you have lots of fun projects on the go! (Maybe 1/4" quilting on that runner around the edges of each triangle???)
I haven't blogged in three weeks. I don't feel so bad now! LOL But you are making progress - me not so much. I'll be ready for our next meeting. I'm not getting any hand work finished. Maybe our next group project should be a big boy quilt!
You have been busy! all looking wonderful
Wow! You have a lot on your quilting To Do List! Your tablerunners are cute. I like your Big Girl quilt, too. Sew much to do and sew little time! LOL!
I love all those projects. I made a version of the heart runner a few years ago. You have reminded me to dig it out and give it table time.
Lovely projects - I do love your valentines runner and debbie's runner is also very nice, and effective in those colours. I'm sure I will be the same when I have grand-kids - always striving to catch up with them!! (Trying not to get tempted by the great BOMs out there!)
Wow you're sharing some wonderful things here. I really love the table runners. What a spectacular piece for sweet Debbie. I like a small baptist fan myself. Charming yet doesn't take away from the lovely piecing you've done here. This isn't the height of creativity though. Everything with me is Baptist Fan. When I am long gone they'll wonder if I ever knew anything else?
These look great!!! They are amazing! Thanks for sharing!
I love the rable runner for your SIL, very nice.
Wow your are busy. I have put a few quilts away in my Grandma hope chest... will be a few years away yet. Love your table runner. Enjoyed stopping by to read your blog.
Just found your blog. Your beatitudes block is too cute. I have the book-alas no quilt. Someday!
Hi there! Hope you see this post...it is of course several years past the original posting! I was wondering if you still have the country cottage downloadable patterns? I discovered those patterns just as the last block pattern was offered and downloaded them on to my computer in the hopes that I would one day make the quilt. A few months ago that computer crashed and I lost all of my files! I'm a brand new quilter, just finishing my first quilt and ready to tackle another one once this one is finished. Would you be willing to email me the patterns? Thank you for considering!
Your work is lovely and inspiring!
Hi Maylady,
I do not have the patterns. I never made any of the other blocks. You do not have an email attached to your name so I could not respond to you directly. I wish I had them, I would be happy to help you out, Thank you for your nice comment.
