July 2011 has been a really Hot one! Thank goodness for air conditioning!

I have been busy finishing my Scarlet and Gray quilts for the trunk show in October at JEllen's House of Fabric in Mayfield, Ohio.  By finishing I mean adding hanging sleeves and hand sewing on the bindings. 


I finished this one last week.  Now I'm working on this one.


I will take a better picture when it is completed.

I have 4 more that need done by the end of the month.

Then 2 more are coming from the quilter to be done by the 1st of October.

I better get busy!!

The Cobbled Court Novels by Marie Bostwick are a wonderful blessing!!

I just finished ready the 4 books in Marie Bostwick's quilting series, they were a wonderful blessing.  It's great to read books about women in their 40's and 50's that have real problems and the quilting sister's that support them.  When I'm not quilting I enjoy reading about quilting and how it can make a difference in people's lives.  I have added a few books to my Quilting Novels list on the right hand side of my blog.  If you can find the time this summer pickup a book from on of these talented authors.  I think you will really enjoy yourself.
