What's a girl to do?<br />
Got up this morning made a batch of chili for hubby and I to have for dinner while he watches the game, I will be working on an old UFO appliqué block maybe I will finally make some progress.<br />
I made a cracked wheat bread to go with e chili and a bannana bread to have with our tea later. As for this morning I will be working on my own quilt which has been loaded on the frame and calling my name for a week. This is an old top I made may years ago, let me tell you my piecing skills have come a long way, I will do a panto in the center and maybe a separate border treatment will decide that when I am in front of the frame, this quilt will be used on our bed so no heirloom or fancy custom for this one. Hope you all have a great Sunday. And for my husband and sister and brother-inlaw..

I am cleaning an clearing out, my sewing room has become some cluttered I feel I cannot be creative unless I clear it out. I have filled four large trash bags and filled our recycle container to date and I am finally seeing the light and feel like sewing. Yesterday I loaded a customer quilt, I hope to do some work on that today while hubby is watching football. I also started recovering my couch cushions, we bought this beautiful sectional less than seven years ago and the threads are letting go every where, something needed to be done so I bought some fabric and will see how it goes, so far one cushion done but still needs a little tweaking, and 5 more to go will try and post some pictures later this week.

I have been thinking about endings and beginnings lately. My last post was back in June when my brother passed away. A sad ending, today I post about beginnings, happy beginnings. The attached pictures are of my Grandson Hunter, he will be joining our family in a few weeks. I cant wait to kiss that chubby little face, makes me so happy to welcome another little boy into our family.</div>

My brother fought a long hard battle, with cancer and other demons in his life, I hope he now has found some peace. I will miss him, I will miss his laugh his sometime raunchy but always funny jokes,his creativeness Dick you can be proud your boys are strong sensitive responsible men, we will love and look after them for the rest of our lives we are family, (we are Hogans, we are proud, strong and loving). I will hold you in my heart forever, may God hold you in the palm of his hand for all eternity.<br />

There is nothing wrong with tied quilts but now that I have a longarm machine, everytime I looked at that quilt even though I loved it I knew it could be so much better.<br />

This quilt was pieced by my sister and quilted by me, it hung in our bi-anual quilt show last month. I love the little critters I quilted in. The pattern is called American Pie by Mary K Ryan.<br />

Here are some pics of my cute cute grandkids at yesterdays Easter egg hunt. They hold the hunt inside the middle school gym, for some reason we tend to have rain or the threat of rain every year. Everyone had a great time and grandson met the Easter Bunny for the first time. I'm not sure he liked Mr. Bunny to much! lol!<br />

I miss being able to post new pictures. <br />
Finished quilting a customer quilt yesterday and loaded another small lap quilt, hope to have that one finished tomorrow night. Then I have a large edge to edge to quilt, then I can finish quilting my own. I have been working on my Farmers wife blocks again and have nine finished. I have also been working on completing a flannel quilt that my mom started, want to get that one done soon as well. <br />

Today was a very productive day, sent two quilts home with their owners, decorated two Christmas trees with the help of my three beautiful grand babies, son-in law and two of my daughters.<br />
Got a good start on the Christmas tree ornaments for my guild meeting, will finish those up tomorrow night. <br />
Took apart an old Christmas quilt I made, and tied a few years ago, hopefully it will be loaded on the frame tomorrow and get a brand new holiday pattern quilted on it. <br />
Now its a time for a nice cup of tea and putting my feet up, so I can look at my lovely tree.Judy Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01232056499687353743noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408694139788346519.post-68784542106212425052011-11-24T17:06:00.001-08:002011-11-24T17:10:22.002-08:00It's been a very long time since I posted, but I thought today was a good day to start again.

Oh how I wish I had more, seems lately there is never enough time. Time to spend visiting friends and family, time to sew, time to work, clean, cook.<br />
Today I will take time, I will prioritize, I will go to my sewing room and finish the last quilt for this year! :)<br />
This afternoon I will decorate the last tree and finish putting up the last of the decorations, put a nice meal in the crock pot. Tonight I will begin celebrating the season for what it is. I will relax with hubby, watch a Christmas movie, and wait for it......ahhhhh I will relax. I will not worry about what needs doing. I will enjoy the season for what it is Time... to spend with family & friends, time to relax and enjoy little girls and little boys smiles, time to enjoy the message of Christmas! Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas to all of you.<br />

I miss my machine and sewing room but it gives me a goal to work towards.<br />
Today my to oldest daughters will come and have dinner, this is a good thing I think dad needs a break, he is a worry wart when it comes to me. While the girls are here I will have them pull a few things downstairs for me to stitch on, I need to do something when I am not doing my exercises. <br />
Thanks to all who popped in on my blog and wished me well.... now come on knee get moving there is to much stuff to finish in my sewing room. <br />
Have a wonderful day.Judy Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01232056499687353743noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408694139788346519.post-87408657240609876132010-07-01T19:10:00.000-07:002010-07-01T19:10:36.633-07:00knees knees kneesTomorrow will be my last day of work for the Summer, I will be having knee replacement surgery on July 8th. Lately all I think about is knees, you know crazy things. Bees Knees, Knee Jerk, the knee bone connects to the shin bone, deep knee bends, head shoulders knees and toes..... I know crazy, I think this is what is keeping me calm. I was to have double knee replacement, but Doc wants to try other treatments on the left knee for now so it will be just the right knee for now.<br />
I need to put together some hand work to do while I am recuperating, and I just can't seem to find the time to do this....Let me know if you can come up with any other knee sayings I think I will keep a list.<br />
That's all for now.Judy Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01232056499687353743noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408694139788346519.post-31375221990254835732010-05-17T18:12:00.000-07:002010-05-17T18:12:37.103-07:00the quilters closet<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Barb from bejeweled quilts, showed us her stash a little while ago.. now we all know we have stashes so I decided to take a look at mine.</div>This picture is of my quilt closet, yes I have a closet designated just for quilts. The funny thing is even though I quilt for others most of these that have yet to be quilted belong to me. I counted 4 quilts for customers in the front, and hold your breath 37 quilts of my own (these are just the ones hung up). <br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">every hanger you can see has a quilt on it, there are probably another 10 in there that are my mothers. I'm sorry Mom I will try to get to some of yours soon. I can't even begin to look at the ufo's and fabric stash right now. </div><br />
