Hello Spring

 I know, Spring started last week, but today is the first day that it has felt like Spring here. I saw my first very fat doe for the year today. Tomorrow is supposed to be a record breaking 83 degrees...then rain for the week. Yup, it's Spring.

I finally got my background fabric cut.


And yes, I messed up on the cutting again. Luckily it all worked out.

I loaded and got the ark panel about half quilted.


I stopped because my frankenbat was coming apart. I used some of my basting glue to fix it. Hopefully I'll be able to finish it tomorrow.


A new clue for the Civil War mini was released Friday. This Friday will be the last row and the finishing instructions.


Bella likes to sleep in her cave during the Winter months. That girl can snore!

I was going to silently "forget" about showing the quilted little basket mini. 


Not happy with it. I really need to practice my long arm feathers more. I also got impatience with quilting the background. It probably wouldn't look as haphazard if I had micro stitch under the basket instead of the whatever that is.

I have been going through all of my magazines (I can't believe I moved all of these). I'm almost done.
 

All of these, plus more, are going to the guild free table over the next couple of meeting. If a magazine had three or more patterns that I liked, I kept it. If it only had one or two, I tore the pattern out...don't you hate people that do that. ;o)

I looked at this post even before I got out of bed this morn, but wanted to wait till on computer to comment. Some kid is going to love that ark quilt I think Lorelei would have when she was little. Your feathers are sure better than anything I can do! I really like how you quilted that mini...
