Painted Tiles

I have 4 tiles painted over the years and they are not moving with me! If any of you want any of these, please let me know and I will get them to you. The frames are not the best, they came with the tiles, they can be re-frames, too expensive here maybe you have a better source.

Morning Glories and Humming birds!

Random thought

I think I found Sway's smile, what do you think??

Happy Fourth of July

I Love America and all the freedoms we have here!!!

It's July, this year is going by very fast!! I'm posting the next month of Conference Talks to read, I hope you are keeping up.

We are getting really busy trying to get the house read to go on the market. Yesterday we moved the 2 dressers out of the sewing room, intending on selling them in a garage sale next week. We noticed a neighbor down the street having a sale, so we put the dressers and other miscellaneous items out in the drive way and by the end of the day they were gone.

Everything is falling into place very nicely, we both feel that the house will sell quickly, however, if it doesn't we can simply stay here longer than we want. Does that make any sense??

P.S. Thanks for the kind words on my last post. I could not think how to spell "Zina" (Zinnia) for the life of me, no wonder my spell check couldn't find it. I'm so happy we have Nicole, she is an absolute genius with works, I truly appreciate you Nicole!!!

That's all for now, see you down the line, I'll let you know how the house goes, if I live that long.

My Latest Creation

The "Grandmothers Garden" quilt, inspired by Eleanor Burns of Quilt in a Day. This quilt took me a couple of years, not a day. But I like her methods.

Each flower in each basked is 3 dimensional, they stand out one way or another. I can't decide which is my favorite so I'm posted close ups of several, you can decide.

The Poppy, made orange for the California Poppy.

This quilt has 18 blocks, all different except 2 roses. I think it will fit my "guest" bed so my happy hubby doesn't take a nap on it.

The Jonquil, or Daffodil, the center pops right out at you.

I really like Morning Glory, the vine is an interesting process, a chain stitch done on the sewing machine.

The Zina is done with ruching, a fun, fun stitch, maybe I'll do more Zina.

Tulip, aren't they pretty and bright, they should brighten up any garden.





My Rose is made with a modeled fabric, I have roses in my garden that bloom in different colors of peach and when they fade they turn pink, they are called the Arizone Rose. There are 2 roses in my garden quilt.

Last on is a Lilly, I have a pink Lilly in my garden, also I have "Tiger" Lilly. I like them both.

Now all I need is one more boarder, I'll do that now, then it needs to be quilted! Any Volenteers??
