What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

I had bought some sweet Daisy Kingdom fabric a LONG time ago.  I finally made a crib sheet from the Daisy Kingdom fabric and had some leftover fabrics that I cut up into squares.  I decided that one of the things I want to do this year is use from the fabric I already own so I dug in my stash to make this one.You may notice some fabrics from previous quilts in this one too.  The blue was used in

Christmas was pretty low key over here at chez Lincoln.  We didn't have the grandbaby but our other 2 kids were here.  I forgot to share some photos of the Christmas stockings I made for my great nephew Charlie.  Thought I would share those now.This Santa one was made for Charlie's grandma and grandpa's house.  I had a devil of a time finding that green for the name.  I usually put my fabrics

I finally got the top all put together but was not happy with how wide vs long it was.  I was not sure I had enough background fabric to make it the way I wanted it to finish so I took a photo of it as is, so to speak.  It was ok, the way it was but I was still not happy with it.I thought I would add some maple leaves to the top and bottom.  I had to piece the background but I was thinking I

Now that I have finished all my animals (oh wait, I haven't shared the procupines have I?)  OK, so here are the porcupines.  The spikes are not how they are supposed to be and where they join up to the head unit isn't perfect but DONE is better than perfect, right?So my porcupines have rogue spikes.  Real life porcupines aren't perfectly symmetrical are they?I'm just happy that I can move on

I have been doing some more sewing and am so anxious to finish up these blocks.  I now have just one last block to make and I will have all the blocks for the Canada quilt finished.  Then I will need to assemble the quilt.  I need to see if I can use the 2 rulers I have to make the porcupine's back so we shall see.  Here is what I have done now.For some reason these raccoons reminded me of the

I finished a few more blocks for the Canadian quilt.  These blocks have been so challenging to make.This one is my favorite!It has been POURING rain for the last 2 days so I have spent my time sewing!I need a few things to finish the last three blocks but I am hoping to figure out a way to use what I have to get them made.  What are you all working on?~XOP~

I had time to work on the second block in the Canada Quilt today.  It is a black bear and he is SO adorable.I only had to re-cut a few pieces (was I on drugs when I cut these out?? LOL)  I do love the blue heathered background I chose too but it is directional so if you make this you need to think about that.  It made cutting a little tougher, but worth it. I introduce you to my bear!That face!

A year ago or so I bought the Wonderful Woodland BOM but had not had time to work on it.I cut it out and have been taking it to me every time I travel.  I thought that it would be a good one to work on while we wait for baby.  The first block is the moose with the Canadian leaves on it.  Back story, my hubby goes FAR into northern Canada ( about 150 miles N of Soo Sault Marie, MI) to a cabin
