RedPosie

I think I started the hats about 15 years ago and just never finished.  I found them in the box and decided to finish it up.  I used left over fabric for the blocks and the strips and left over binding strips I decided not to use on another quilt.

I practiced stippling which I am getting better at with each quilt.

The embroidery blocks I think have been around about 20 years can you believe time.  My daughter saw this and remembered helping me embroider the bears.

I did purchase another fat quarter to finish the red checked squared and I found the cutest fabric for the binding and the strips.  It is the embroidery stiches fabric.

I practiced the quilting and it is a blanket for the puppies.  They have pretty snazzy blankets for their crates.  HAHAH!

I'm about done with a new lap quilt for the bedroom done in Shabby Chic fabrics.  That fabric has been around for about 2 years now.  Getting better.

I'm on to get some of my kinda ugly fat quarters into something.

I keep reading articles about using up all the scraps but if your like me I am so sick of looking at the fabric I just can't get myself to use it again.  I've been donating it to Goodwill where I hope someone thinks Wow! what a great find.  Maybe someday I will have picked fabric out that I will want to use every inch of it, just not there yet mine mainly consist of "why did I pick that up?"  What was I thinking???????
