Another Prim Christmas Gift

So prim Christmas, another surprise gift in the mail from a friend.  You might recognize those ornaments from the prim work of aka Woolensails and some of her own wools. Love the snowman fabric, aged like the ornaments for a wonderful prim look.

Noah

I

I love any quilt with a Noah theme. This one is from the designers from Country Threads and Primitve Gatherings Quilt store is also offering it as BOM. I already have one on the ceiling in the livingroom that I made years ago from Brannock and Patek.

I was able to bury Jim's ashes on Easter Sunday, a beautiful day to remember and celebrate for years to come.

Primitive Quilts & Projects Magazine, Giveaway

Thanks to an online friend, I ended up with two magazines of this great primitive magazine, filled with way too many projects for me to ever complete.
I actually show you a picture of the back.

So if you would like this extra copy, leave me a comment by Friday noon, please be a follower of mine, and I will draw a name on Friday evening, March 22nd and mail it to you after Easter.

And then with all flurry that Jeni and her sisters have with publishing and mailing out this magazine, she included this sweet little angel block. Thank you so much Jeni. I see some vintage Brannock & Patek fabric.

I am still employed at the clinic, just haven't worked there since January, a few days before the accident. They are waiting to see what my surgeon says next week, they do want me to come back, so when I say my boss, it's out of habit, I mean the P.A. I use to work for and who is also my neighbor and friend.

Progress

Life does go on, one more block to finish the Pink elephants and then will machine quilt it, and add the cart pulls out of yarn I think with a big black bead. Have you seen these two new books out, just love the Valentine quilt and the William Morris applique looks stunning. Quilt Mania mag has Jubilee by Jan Patek on the cover, I am being prodded into making this quilt by my group.

She's Home,

safe and sound, you can see little Bailey's pleasure at having me home again. Thanks for the good thoughts, the surgery went smooth and recovery has started.

Primitive Checkerboard & a Bald Eagle

I made this quilt several years ago and you just never know when someone else is going to like your work, especially when it's primitive, so glad Fons & Porter took a liking to it, it's in the Spring issue of Easy Quilts. And it is easy, the applique is needleturn, even the geese but the
pieces are big, so it doesn't take that long.

And then, can't post without a wildlife creature, a friend of mine took this picture of our resident Bald Eagle along the river where the clinic is located.
