Here is Mia, a coworker and good friend, receiving her wedding quilt per request of purple and rust. I had better pictures. I have lost my memory card. Well, I know where I left it and it is not there. Some lovely person in this house hold either brushed it off the table or picked it up with stuff... who knows.
I found this picture on my phone. Sorry it is lousy. I do hope to find the card.
The quilt is fmq in hearts!

Cobble Court Quilt Retreat 3
All I have to say is that I have never ever laughed so much in my life as I did this weekend. It is all Judy's fault too.
We sewed... a lot. We ate.... a lot. We went to two quilt shops; very nice. And when we played the fat quarter game....let's just say, some do not play very nice....ummmm Judy!!! (yeah she is a character)

We had a great time. I do not see these ladies enough. I still vote for more.

Arizona - Im in love!!!
Eric and I returned from Arizona at the end of September. (Yes, Im still a little behind)
I had a fabulous time. I have a tan now.... yay, I do not feel I missed summer any longer. We stayed at the Camel Back Inn. It is a Marriot Hotel. I do enjoy being pampered; drinks by the pool at 11 o'clock, sitting and swimming then dinner and drinks.
On Saturday we ventured to Sedona. I so much enjoyed the rock formations and mostly photographing them. The gardens here are where I captured the pictures of the humming bird.

The Bun Patch
The Bun Patch is the name given to Adele's quilt. I love this pattern which is titled Patchwork Fields. I loved it, she loved it in the magazine and so I offered to make it for her if I could use what I had in the stash. I brought a bag to work with all the fabrics required for the pattern. Adele looked them over and said absolutely.
See the bunny in the right corner? This is Bun, Adele's bunny which is black and gray with white black tail and a pink nose (or she wanted a pink nose).
This is one of my favorite quilts. It turned out to be 81" x 81". Very scrappy and all of her favorite fabrics. There is even a purple 30's fabric with bunnies.

Summertime
Reenie Beanie gave me a jelly roll for Christmas.
Regina wanted to do the Jelly roll race.
Here is mine completed.
I bought the border fabric and the binding (yellow) at Mt Pleasant when I went shopping with Regina and Jill. The backing is from Ben Franklin in Hilton before it closed. It has little pink berries in the leaves.
And I finished a pillow for my room.
Mia is on my pillow. Her favorite spot.
I have been working on tons. It is hard to find time to post though. I have to cart my carcass up here to the den and oh, remember the memory card.... big ordeal.
I have been on a few trips this year; Lake Placid, Boston, and Niagara Falls.
Here are a few snapshots.
Boston: Lady watching people walk by in North End. We were trying to seek out the best restaurant for the next nights meal.
Lake Placid: White face Mountain at the White Face Resort.

Niagara Falls: Our helicopter ride over the falls.

Olen's quilt
Here is the quilt I made from the fabric's Heather and I picked out at JoAnn's. It is for her son Olen.
I am sandwiching a jelly roll race quilt now that Regina and I played with awhile ago. I really love the way it turned out. I will add a photo here shortly. I found the borders to it when I went on the quilt store run two weeks ago with Regina and Jill. I chose a pink and green plaid that I found at Mt Pleasant.
I am also finishing up the borders of the Scattered stars quilt from a Relay for Life Mystery. I chose a golden yellow for the small border and blue swirls fabric for the larger. I found those at Mt Pleasant and Quilter's Daughter out in Perry.
Then this past weekend I visited with Reenie and we went to Quilt Sewciety and I bought a green yellow rust batik for Marie Bostwick's pattern Cobble Court in the magazine Quilt Maker.
So really Im busy but just at a slower pace I guess. There are tons I want to do.... the list keeps growing.
