Here is The Milky Way. Sure glad that I don't have a whole lot of these to make, as I had an awful time. Made mistakes in cutting and sewing... It really isn't wrinkly like the picture shows. I have it laying on back of couch. Should have laid in on the floor, but then my dog would be in the middle of it. LOL

Here are the 2 squares laid next to gether. Guess that it just isn't my favorite. But I love having a challenge each month in quilt club to learn how and do a square that I normally wouldn't even try. That's it for today folks... Be back soon

Got the drunkards path squares done for quilt club next week. I did 4 with dark quarter circle in inside and 4 with the light quarter circle on inside. I just laid them on blanket and don't know if you can tell what's what. lol

Have all 8 in pictures. I was amazed as to how easy it was to sew them together. Just used 3 stick pins to hold ends together and matched centers and they just ease together. Makes me want to do something with the pattern. There are many ways to lay them out, they showed some of them at the demo. Sounds fun.

This is the casserole carrier that I made for the 50 th anniv. party that I went to today. Made from 2 woven placemats from Kohl's and a napkin that I made the applique, spoon holder straps, and the handles. Used velcro to close end.

I put my large cake pan with the high cover on it to take the picture with. Still had plenty of room. That's my projects for this week. Must get back to my quilt. Her name is Darlene, so did the little label on it [Darlene's Delightful Dish] She shouldn't lose it....

Finally added a few pictures. First 2 are of my quilting machine and my frame. I'm still practicing on a plain piece. Just getting use to it. The first one that I had I gave to my oldest daughter. This is a 17 in. machine. So I'm still new at it. Cann't get doing the pantagrams yet. Just cann't get the hang of it. Do o.k. just free motion quilting tho.

Our BOM shown here. We are making 2 of them now, so one will be made into a quilt for the pallitive care unit of our local hospital. Usually there about 25 to 30 blocks every month.

This is a sweat shirt that I finished off for a birthday gift. Made my own bias tape for around the edges.

Guess what!!!! I finally have taken time to download several pictures of some of my latest projects. I don't know why I put it off so long. Guess it's that I always have to stop and think of how to do it with camera and prints.

This is a BOM for June at our quilt club. Each month everyone makes a block , put our name on back and then at the meeting they draw out a winner. There are always more than 35 blocks, so one has a free quilt to make.

Here's the diaper cake I made for my great nieces baby shower. They are having a girl the end of July. Made from 1 box of Pampers. I added the baby items and everyone loved it.

This was the BOM square for March. Had shamrocks as the main fabric and the one that was supplied. We always add the other fabrics from our stash... Guess I already had posted this a few posts back, but here it is again. Surprise!!!!!

For April we made a basket square, but I forgot to take a picture.

This was Jacob's ladder and don't remember what month it was for.

Another picture of GD's quilt all quilted and ready to go.

Needed another person to hold it up but that didn't happen.....

GD all wrapped up in her cuddly quilt. She's 15, and made it so she can take it to collage in a couple more years... She picked out the prints for it. It's kind of wild. She loved the yoyo's on it...
Will try harder to get projects up when I finish, instead of waiting so long... Molly

A snowy day here in Wisconsin. Guess it's a good day to upload the pictures that I have taken recently of currant projects. This is the BOM that we do each month at the quilt club. Everyone make a square [labels it on back with their name]and then it is put in bag and one is pulled out. The winner gets all the blocks to make a quilt. We are given the patteren and instructions. Usually colors are suggested. This last month we were given the multi colored fabric and had to use a white on white for background pieces and chose plain or marbled fabric to match one of the colors in the multi colored piece.

This just a baby quilt that I put together to try out a square that I thought was interesting. Made with flannel, both front and back... Nice and cozy... It hasn't even been pressed, so it looks kind of wonky....

We had a demo last month of this pattern. Sew 9 patch, any size squares, these are from Moda's, wild flowers IV... Once you have the 9 patches sewn together you cut it in the middle vertical and horizonlly. Like you do for a disappearing 9 patch. But by sewing each 9 square with prints in the 4 corners and the sashing colors [white] and the cornerstone color[blue] in the middle, you end up with the print patches with the sashing and cornerstones already attached. There is a way to keep all the prints the right way but I didn't think I would do it for this one.

Here are some laid out as it would be in a quilt....

Well, I finally got these darn pictures uploaded to my blog... For some reason, my stupidity,,, I finally did it. Last time I went to put pictures up to my blog it went so easy... Not this time... For some reason I just couldn't get the pictures uploaded on the blog... Would only get the last pictures ,from January that I took on my camera.... Don't know what I was doing.... I'll have to catch up with my DGD... She is my teacher with the internet and blogging.....
This is my GD's quilt, the middle of it... The plain centers of each section will have yoyo's in as below... The four fabric squares are called 10 min. squares with only 3 seams....

T I just placed some of the yoyo's on the middles to show you what they will be like. I will tack over in the middle of each of the sides to make it look like a cathedral window.... The centers are blocks that end up in the middle with folded sides on the bias that can be tacked in.... And I just may add a wild button to each yoyo... Don't know what kind of borders I will put on it, but my brain is rolling....LOL It will be bright and young.....

This is the square that I had to make for our quilt club this month... We were given the shamrock fabric and the pattern called for a dark green print which we provided and we provided the background fabric which was to be a white on white.... Guess that this will be an Irish quilt for sure.... Hope that this isn't the one that I win....Guess I'm not that Irish..... Enough................................................for now...

I just realized that I uploaded 2 pictures of the same panel, now I got one deleted. Will learn someday how to do this stuff. lol
Here is the other one. I really goofed on the other one. On the horns on his r. side I sewed it much longer than it really was, and of coarse when I caught it the stitches were so tiny, I couldn't unsew them. lol

Gosh, the sun is out and yesterday I finished quilting" GS "Austins quilt. a great day!!!! I should have taken a picture of it while I had it on the frame but thought of it too late. This is his huntin' quilt...

Here is a close up of 1 of the 2 panels of deer that I put in it. Otherwise the fabrics were all kind of hunting type fabrics, but didn't have deer on, except for the border.

I am trying to show a close up of all the meadering that the rest of the quilt is done in. It was fun. Now to cut out GD's quilt. She picked out the fabric, orange and purple. We'll see what happens with that. Certainly different colors and fabrics. Molly
