I have lots of quilty photos to show you tonight!! I have been working on my Summer Pond quilt. I have 9 more blocks cut out, ironed on and ready to applique! Somehow I only ended up with photos of 7 of them. But anyway, I already appliqued two of them tonight. I figure I will work on this quilt until I get tired of doing the applique and then I will move on to something else. Anyway, I really like how this quilt it turning out.
Speaking of quilts!!! I finished my quilt top! It was supposed to be a diagonal nine patch but if you remember in my last post I was telling you that I messed up cutting my stripe fabric so I ended up with this.....
While I had the fabric out for this quilt, I went ahead and cut the binding for it too. Even though it didn't turn out the way it was supposed to I like it and I used around 375 3 1/2 inch squares that I had precut from my scraps! It felt nice to just sit down at the machine with a box of scraps in sew!
Yesterday, Richard did not get to work! The mine didn't have enough coal blasted out from him to haul so they told him that they didn't need him. :( But he used the day off to work on the house. He was putting up the plywood on the front half of the roof as you can see here. Hopefully he can get the rest of it done this weekend.
And last but not least....I will leave you with another weird photo of our cat, Donkey!
Hopefully tomorrow, I will have more quilty photos to show!

I love the scrap quilt! My goodness, I can't believe how the finished project looks so different from your original photo. It's just beautiful! Nice job!
The quilt turned out great...but we knew it would.
That Donkey is quite the cat- isn't he?
As always, your blocks look great, and your quilt top is awesome! The house is really coming along!
Have a great tomorrow!

I love your star scrapy quilt. Those are my colors. I also love the blocks of applique. Take care.
I love the star quilt. You sure are coming along with these quilts. Are you appliqueing on machine? House is coming along also.
Those blocks are so cool. I'm loving seeing those. The quilt top is wonderful. You'll be moving into the new house in no time at all. Looks like it's really moving along.
Oh yes the quilt top turned out beautiful. There has been a big progress on the house.
You are really moving on your applique project. Your scrappy quilt looks awesome too!! I am starting to save my scraps so I can make a scrappy quilt one day.
Very nice Pond blocks! You have been busy :) Your house is really coming along. Bummer that he had to miss work but maybe the roof could be on before more snow! :)
love how the summer pond is coming along.
Great photo of Donkey
