Sharing and UFOs

I'm getting a new lesson in sharing...I have to share my sewing space and it isn't easy to do! We thought we had it all figured out that Jacqueline could use the sewing room/bedroom as a bedroom and that I'd just keep some of my sewing things in the game room. Ha! We keep such different hours it doesn't always work. The main issue is that the cutting table is in there. I'd wake her up but she and Mary were up painting the bathroom last night so it only seems fair to let her sleep.

So what am I working on that is so important that I want to wake sleeping beauty? Well, lets just say I'm on a UFO kick. I thought I'd start on finishing up the table runner that I had just made. The ladies in the bee just keep inspiring me to start new quilts so I feel I had better get some of these UFOs done before they double!

Lets make a list, just so I can check it off!

UFO

Veggie Table Runner

Baby Quilt made with leftover nine patches

Online Mystery Quilt - I think it will be twin sized

Puppy Dog Car Quilt

Red, White and Blue lap quilt

Four Patch lap quilt

Polka Dot disappearing nine patch

Ralph's family tree

Then there is a pile of patterns and fabric that I haven't started but I won't go there!! Of course there is also the Grandmother's Garden quilt but I don't think that can count. Hmm, but that Christmas Wreath quilt that I'm hand quilting counts just because I don't work on it as much as I should, poor thing!

Ok, enough... time to get something done!! ;o)

Beach Quilt

I made this quilt in two weeks. It started as a workshop in our bee (Needle Dreamers); peer pressure helped me get it done quickly. I'm glad I did because one of the woman in our group has had a recurrence of her cancer so we are going to add ties to make it a Prayer Quilt. Please pray for Lynda too!

36" Wide and 63" Long

Purse

Here is a purse I made last week. I used it as an opportunity to practice using the new embroidery program with my Bernina.

Done piecing Jacqueline's quilt

I have finished putting the top together, now I need to find a quilter here to quilt it on their long arm machine.

June Block

The is Janet's block exchange, the last in this year long exchange. Janet sent the rose fabric along with one block (the one in the center below). It will be interesting to see what she does with this group of blocks.

This is the block that I made. It is simple, kind of like Janet's in that way, but my main idea was that there was so much going on in the other blocks that a plain Jane was needed.

Now I'm done and can't wait to get my blocks, hope I don't have to wait until next month!
