For various reasons, i’ve not been able to quilt for roughly 5 – 6 years. for 4 – 5 of that time, my beloved fabric and sewing machines have been packed away in boxes. With the new house I gots a room that is shared with the computer (but of course ) that’s for MY QUILTING >

As i’m unpacking my fabric, i’m getting all excited – it was like i was getting together with long lost friends. All my kitty fabrics, reproductions, watercolour fabrics, UFOs that are now WIPs (amazing how not having something stare at you in the face for several years changes it’s status!) … then the quandry sets in – what to do first.

Kyle needs a new quilt since he’s moved up to a double bed in the new house (but i’ve one in the works from a few years ago that might be big enough). Other quandry on this, the prints are almost to young for him; trucks and honey bees (pooh bear type honey bees), the other two fabrics should be fine.

Lap quilt for reg – his will be with his favourite sports teams logos on it and sports related blocks.

my kitty quilt – only been plotting this one for about 10 years – still plotting

sunny stars swap i did a few years ago

2 quilts for our bed; one winter one summer

finish quilting a charity quilt for sunshine i that is 1 hour from being finished note to self – find out where to send it

so essentially; 3 bed quilts (2 king and 1 double), 2 lap quilts, 1 charity quilt and other various WIPs (hand quilted kitty wall hanging, doll quilt (selling this item), Charity Attic Windows, kyle’s bed quilt from a few years ago, sunny star swap blocks .. i think that i have them all ..

paddytClever girl, good to see you in the world of blogging. If you use Picassa you can blog your photos straight from there.

Some say it is counterproductive, but I find you often have times when you need to wait for materials, so I work on several quilts at a time.
