Betty's Table Toppers

Betty plans to sell these table toppers at a coming craft show. She used flannel as the batting because she really wanted it to lay flat. I chose:


Bending in the Wind (Sweet Dreams) for the Trees quilt






Christmas Poinsettias (Sweet Dreams) on the poinsettia quilt with Rheingold gold thread.





And this fun quilt of coffee jumps has the panto Teacups from Sweet Dreams.

Sailboats in Batik


This is Dennie's quilt. It has the most wonderful batiks in it. Then she bought the backing which has sailboat printed on it. So what else should we quilt but sail boats. I used King Tut De Nile variegated thread.

All is right in my quilting world


A couple weeks ago, the scissors zinger on my apron became inoperable. The
reason I started using the zinger is because I cannot keep track of my scissors, snips, what have you. I blogged about my problem and my quilting buddy, Glenda (aka quilting nanny)sent me a new zinger. It works great. Thank you, Glenda.
All is right in my quilting world again.

My life has changed in the last couple of years - some bumps, I retired from quilting, and then I moved to Texas. I'm anxious to see what new adventures await me in the next phase of my life.
