another Sunday ends in pink
I spent time quilting and making binding this weekend. We also delivered a few Easter presents to Alice-I think the photo sums it up nicely. ( yes, I made that book) if you click the photo, it will get larger.
A photo of the first pink quilt-pieced by a gal in my small charity group and quilted/bound by me. If you click on the photo, it will get larger...
I do a lot of donated top quilting given to our group-it's always nice to get them finished up and ready for shipping off to headquarters. I have the guild top(2nd pink) ready for hand stitching the binding on and the third pink top is waiting for binding to be machine stitched plus a bit more quilting. That third one will count as a finished ufo. All the others are current projects.
A bonus of feeling better - I hit the gym both Saturday and Sunday-not overdoing it, but at least getting some cardio in. got to celebrate a small step back to more "normal". I will wrap up the binding by applying it to the convergence wall hanging-quilted though not entirely to my satisfaction-but in the done is better than not done bucket.
So, after I finish more binding, there will follow photos of the various quilts. Once these are all in the done, done catagory-I am taking a break and doing a few personal FUN projects. First and foremost being an idea I want to explore as part of Tonya's summer class assignment. It's been way too long since I played making free form letters and letting those creative juices flow.
I hope your weekend was as much fun as mine! Too bad I have to go back to the office tomorrow-I feel like I am just getting warmed up in here...

You MADE that book! It is wonderful, and what a great Easter gift!
Is that a quilted book? How did you put it together? Is there a common pattern one could google for to get an idea how it's done? I think it's a neat idea... :)
Oh...look at those little curls dancing around Alice's face! She's adorable! Lovely gifts.
Love that little curl hanging down by LMAIW ear! she is a doll baby for sure!

Alice is getting so big- and ever cuter!
I, too, am very impressed with that book you made! Will there be a tutorial in the future? Perhaps you could offer a class. I know there would be a lot of takers :) Pretty pink quilt, too.
All together now---awwwwww. What a cutie! Is she holding a sock in her little hand? Any holiday is better with a little person around so you can see it through their eyes.
Good job on her book and the pink quilts, plural definitely!
Lovely book, but gorgeous baby!! She is so beautiful.
I like the colours of the pink quilt too, very pretty.
Thankyou so much for visiting my blog, & leaving a comment.
