What are you working on right now? I've set aside my quilting and I'm working on cross stitch ornaments for Christmas gifts. I haven't got my quilt hoop up in our new place yet. I am putting the binding on my daughter's blue and pink quilt. She is five now, guess I need to get it done!!!

What are you using for your Calendar?

I love to embroider. I have a redwork lap quilt and Sun Bonnet Sue blocks underway.

That Girls Day Out is really cute. Are you almost finished? Is it a gift?

A panel is a good idea.

That quilt is so cool. I hope you really enjoy it.

I bet you are enjoying your new machine. I love the feel of the needle in my hands.

Hi there Irenee & a Very Warm Welcome from sunny Florida. I do so admire your work and talent. Kudos to all of you fine ladies. Unfortunately, I'm one of those who has no such abilities. My only hobby, besides reading is doing art stamping. You can make such beautiful cards and such.

Stamping is an art and I am sure that your cards are beautiful. I have thought about doing it, but hubby will kill me if I start another hobby!!!!
