Phew~
I am not quite sure how to deal with these 100 and maybe 6 or 7 pantos, child said the number is in this vicinity. ~smile~ Maybe by the tens?

More to come~
I am amazed at how much learning I have collected over the past five years! There is a lot yet to get posted but it is time to put some grub on the table before everyone starts growling at me!
Getting Started
Some Down Time~

Time~
It was probably my most challenging quilt this year, the variegated thread kept catching on the spool and had to be hand fed for the whole quilt, she was very set with it being that particular thread so with help I got through it!

Mission Complete!
In the midst of trying to get myself caught up a gal called begging and pleading to get this quilt done in time for a show that is going on Wednesday night.
The softy that I am said yes.
But I did make good on Angie's first! I still had to get the bindings on 3 of them and completed that today/night!
Her Backing! How cool is that?!
Hehehe, just a little fun shot of Mookie with something she isn't suppose to have!
My photos uploaded in the wrong order so here is a close up before the full shot.
Very pretty! Some little one will love being snuggled up in this!!
Now there were two of these, one I did what I thought looked like spinning wheels and made the quilt come alive!
And this little guy I used a panto called popcorn, quite fitting for a circus themed quilt!

Another Week~
Then this is my ongoing project! My half log cabin top, I think I have finally figured out what I want to use for the first border and it isn't either of these choices, I have fallen for those aged muslin's and I picked out the lightest one to use!
I have about two sides worth of the braid border completed, am just going to make one big long one then trim to fit!

Sneak Peak~
These little Schnibble's are a fellow bloggers, she sent me five quilts! Talk about a piecing maniac! ~smile~ They are absolutely gorgeous and hope she will enjoy them!
I received them via mail a couple weeks ago but in the midst of still trying to get caught up from being away from home the first couple weeks of October and Shop Hop in Vegas and surrounding shops I have been a quilting maniac!
I am close to getting caught up, one night a week seems to be dedicated to working until four am and then getting back up at six to start again. Try not to make it a habit so my sleep isn't totally whacked out.

Out of the Wood Works~
What a summer, that about sum's it up! Just kidding, it has been a life changing one, many things have happened that have reshaped our Family, some good, some not so good.
Here they are taking out the stitches, total yuck!
This little guy was some color inspiration for a future quilt! There is still a long tale about the camping trip, we ended up having to go back because the kids were out fishing and all so we ended up just camping the rest of the week and taking day drives to different places in the area. One being Jerome, it was a long dirt rode that we weren't aware of but it was fun seeing the little mining town which also brought us to Cottonwood and of course I had my Country Register so pulled it out and got to visit a quilt shop there. Will have to find those pictures.........
Then Donnie became an Explorer with the County, Scottie is one of the Advisers and soon to be taking the job over but they held a competition in Las Vegas and this is just one of the shots from there. They did great! Brought home a few trophies and just had a good time!!
