churunga	Posted - May 24 2020 : 10:02:09 PM I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full. Here is something I'm working on. I'm using fabric from the fabric swaps. Marie Sister #5142 Farmgirl of the Month May 2014 Try everything once and the fun things twice.

MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Sep 11 2024 : 1:11:45 PM Linda, trust me, I get paint everywhere too lol! But it's still fun. Great work on having 4 quilts done. You sure have been very busy. It sounds like you may need to rotate the quilts around every other week.; Judith, I look forward to seeing your quilt. Krista
StitchinWitch	Posted - Sep 10 2024 : 4:58:50 PM Today I'm finally putting the sections of the Vintage Sampler quilt together. I'll post a picture when the tall person with long arms is available. Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 I'm old and I wear purple
quiltee	Posted - Sep 10 2024 : 3:07:14 PM Today I am putting the final borders on my Alaska quilt kit using a Northern Lights panel. I am also making the backing for the Alaska quilt. I am taking 4 quilts to my longarm quilter on Thursday. YAY! Not sure what I will do with them when I get them back. I have so many quilts and ony so many beds and backs of couches. Oh, well. I am also making slip covers for the seat cushion and back cushion for the matching rocker for our grandson that will remain at our house. The fabric is dinosaurs on white; I got the fabric free (somewhere, not sure where) and figured this is a good use for it.

quiltee	Posted - Sep 10 2024 : 3:02:41 PM Beautiful, Krista! Wish I could paint. Fabric is my medium of choice, not paint. I get too dirty when I paint. LOL!

Wanda Sue	Posted - Sep 09 2024 : 2:37:19 PM Congratulations Krista, I’m sure it feels really good to finish that UFO. A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Sep 09 2024 : 1:28:24 PM Thanks Karen and Judith! Krista

Jokamartell	Posted - Sep 06 2024 : 5:32:41 PM Great job, Krista! :) Karen :) To quote one of my past preschoolers “Not one of those Karens, but a good Karen”! Haha
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Sep 06 2024 : 1:18:55 PM Finally finished the graphgan pillow! Whew it was a lot of work. I'm happy it's finally finished. 4 years later and this UFO is finally complete. Krista
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Sep 02 2024 : 3:03:26 PM Vanessa, it still looks amazing with the boarders! The black is such a fun pop of color. Krista

StitchinWitch	Posted - Aug 31 2024 : 2:21:04 PM Being able to improvise is a good skill to have with sewing projects. Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 I'm old and I wear purple
Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 31 2024 : 1:02:16 PM To be honest, I cut them too small so I decided to add borders. I get nervous that I won't have enough fabric for both blocks. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Aug 30 2024 : 1:28:11 PM I finished the back to my graphgan pillow last night. Now I just need to get them hooked together. I am needing buttons and have struggled to find any tree buttons in the store. I may need to order some online. It's going to be so nice when this big project is finished. Krista
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Aug 30 2024 : 1:13:25 PM Vanessa, those are cute! I love the fabric. Krista
StitchinWitch	Posted - Aug 30 2024 : 11:13:58 AM Very nice Vanessa. I like how the black strips set off the yellow. A good fall quilt. Summer is the best lollygagging time. Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 I'm old and I wear purple
Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 30 2024 : 08:00:05 AM These are the latest friendship quilt blocks I made with this months gnome fabric. I lollygagged the month away, so they were a rush job. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
windypines	Posted - Aug 30 2024 : 03:59:56 AM Beautiful projects going on and getting finished. Great job everyone. Farming in WI Michele
StitchinWitch	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 5:02:49 PM I've finished three parts of the Vintage Sampler quilt that I am doing this month for the guild's UFO challenge. Now on to part four and I can finally put the whole thing together. Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 I'm old and I wear purple
quiltee	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 5:01:33 PM It'sn not that hard to get it over my head, just that I have to remember to fix my hair after it is on. LOL!

StitchinWitch	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 4:35:42 PM Linda the vest turned out great. It's going to look good on you and keep you warm. What about putting it on over your head don't you like? Could you make the neck part larger to make it easier? Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 I'm old and I wear purple
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 1:32:55 PM Theresa, those hats are really neat looking! And they really do remind me of those Utah National Parks. Way to go. You have been very busy. Linda, your vest looks great. It's going to be such a fun vest to wear this Fall. Krista
Wanda Sue	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 07:48:30 AM Beautiful creations ladies!! A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022
atkinst2	Posted - Aug 28 2024 : 07:27:27 AM Linda, Love the vest. It will look great with jeans or jeans skirt, or anything else really There is never a road so long that there isn't a curve in it.
quiltee	Posted - Aug 27 2024 : 6:42:50 PM I finished the quilted vest I was working on today. This is not the best I made - this is the picture I found on the Internet a couple years ago. I could find no pattern like this on Pinterest, so I decided to make my own. It took me a while to make the pattern. I don't like that it has to be put on over your head. And here are the front and back of the vest I made from blocks that were in my mother's stash. It is not a perfect fit, so if I make another I will have to tweak the pattern a bit. For one thing, I will probably add buttons at the shoulders to make it easier to put on and take off. I plan to wear it with jeans or a jean skirt. It is warm, so I will wait until Fall to wear it.
