Smith Mountain Morning is done! Bonnie Hunter's pattern. I need a different name since it really doesn't go with my color change.
This is what I am putting on the other side of the Kaffe Fassett Glow downsized quilt. It is a free pattern for Moda's jelly roll strips. It is found here. I have added some of my own 2.5 strips. I have not planned how much additional fabric I will need, so I am just using an about one strip per block of my own or Marge's fabric.
This is made from a kit by Kaffe Fassett called Glow. Maggi generously gave me the kit. The finished quilt was to be 90 x90. I pieced it to 72 x 90 and after laying it on the floor decided even that was probably too big for a couch quilt. I am making it 60 x 72. It will be a while before it gets quilted because I like to do two at a time to justify the mess I make in the living room with the tables.
Simplify wallhanging. Embroidered in 8 different hoopings. Marge and I saw a sample at Bernina and each made one. Mine doesn't have a point at the bottom because of an initial misplacement.
Frozen Elsa apron made for Madison. Saw the many aprons that Marge made for Terra's preschoolers.
On my birthday, I worked at putting Smith Mountain Morning quilt together. It's in Bonnie Hunter's book Scraps and Shirttails II. The rows aren't sewn together yet. I have the borders left to piece also. Oh look a mistake in the middle third red star down. Well the mistake is in the log cabin block, I am a black row short.
Mom, Cindy, Tim, Sheila, and I had a nice dinner at Enzo's. I had the most delicious halibut that I have ever eaten.

Finally! Or better late than never! These 2 pictures took 25 years to complete. Well one was done about 25 years ago and then it took 25 years and a replaced hip to finish the second. I will probably never do counted cross stitch again. This was a real challenge on linen with eyes that aren't as young as when I started.
