Almost finished...

 It has been a long day.  This morning we lost one of our goats, Cocoa.  She was our favorite and it has been really hard on Hunter as they were play buddies.  :(

Here is my progress so far on my Anchor's Aweigh quilt.  I stretched out the first 4 rows on Andrew's bed to see how it would fit.  I am pleased with how it is turning out. 

 Here are rows 5 and part of 6 up on my design wall.  It is 1am so I figured it was time to stop for the night.

 I hope to get all of the rows finished tomorrow and ready to sew them together.  

While working this, I have several bow ties finished too.  I've made 42 for the month so far and a total of 558 so that puts me a little over halfway.  I still need to press them open. 

 Last night I crocheted this Sashay ruffle scarf.  It didn't take me too long.  I'm anxious to wear it.  I have a dress that I would like to wear it with Sunday at Church.  I think I will make a few more of them as they don't take that long. 

 Going to try to get some sleep in a bit.  Richard is working tonight so I never sleep well when he is gone.  Mom is flying in tonight from work too.  Actually she landed a few hours ago and has about a 3 hour drive home.  I'm excited to see her.  I miss her when she is gone.

Working on 1 of 3 quilts...

 I am working on 3 of these quilts!  This is the beginning of 1 of 3.  It is called, Anchors Aweigh and the fabric line is Tula Pink's.  It is a big anchor.  One quilt is a commission quilt. The second is for mom, as I figured she would like it as she works on a tugboat on the Mississippi River.  The third quilt is for Andrew as he saw that I had it pulled up on the computer and wanted one too.  

 This is a little more modern than what I usually do and the fabrics are totally not what I usually work with, but I guess sometimes it is good to step out of the box.  I will do one at a time and not work on all three at once.  The good thing is that I have ALL 3 of them cut except for the background fabrics.  

One day last week I made an apron!  :)  I think I will give this one to mom as she uses them on the boat as she cooks.  I had an apron that I liked the style but it was a child apron so I stretched it out over my fabric and just cut it out bigger.  It worked out great that way.  I have 3 more of them cut and I will probably just split them up between us both. 

 Hopefully tomorrow I can get a few more rows sewn together on this quilt.  Not like I can get out and do anything in all of this snow.  We have 9 inches, more or less.  This has been one of the worst winters that I can ever remember KY having in my 41 years.
