And Then.....

The world got back to normal.....thank goodness!!!!

It's been a world-wind kind of month, but it all seems to be getting back to normal. I took a week off of work and went to Asilomar for a week with Judy Niemeyer. A much needed vacation, which was fantastic and lovely, and caused a slight backup in real life....to the toon of crazy!! As in, no laundry done, no house cleaned, no nothing except sewing for a full 5 days!!! It was glorious, and then I had to pay the piper, and catch up at home. I would do it again tomorrow if you let me, it was that much fun, even the laundry, which is saying a lot....

First, some pics of the units from my Glacier Star, which is amazingly enough, not my typical color scheme. Yes, it is brown and orange, with a wee bit of green, a nice fall palette....

These are the baby spike S units that fit into the....

New York Beauty Blocks

Now, I just need to complete the curved seam, and this block will be finished.... 

And then I did all of my Lonestars (top portion) and forgot to take a picture of them, so here they are after they are added to the center snowflake and drunken geese.

And here are the border geese all ready to go... 


and finally the border fabric, all ready to be cut up and fashioned into loveliness.

These guys will be the focus of my sewing for the next few weeks, I am anxious to get this bad-boy all finished up and off to the quilter.

What do you think??? Totally outside my comfort zone.....


Happy Quilting
