my patchwork update

This is fun! No idea how long I will be able to keep this up actively, but I'm trying!

I finally took some pictures of my quilting projects. I finished Lucia's flying geese quilt about a month ago, but haven't had the time to take any pictures of it until now.

I think it looks nice! Won't be making another flying geese any time soon though! The border especially was a pain!

I have also taken pictures of the quilt blocks for the sampler quilt I am currently working on. Here goes:

my (almost)latest patchwork finish

This is a quilt I made for my nurse. She was going through a hard time and could use some comfort. Nothing fancy, just a quick yellow brick road pattern, but she likes it!

I will try to take some pictures of the quilt blocks I am currently working on. A sampler quilt using 56 different blocks. 16 down, 40 to go! I'll try to get to that this afternoon.

If you get bored with hust these few photos, here's a link to my webshots album:

trying to post pictures

With a little help from my friends, I hope I can now get this to work and I can show you the pictures of my stitching.













This is what I'm working on:













1. Stoney Creek quilted hearts afghan. Here is my progress as of January 24th.:







(Thanks Frauevi; it worked!!!)

And, since I will not sit still and do nothing in between waiting for the new Stoney Creek magazine to arrive every 2 months, I am also working on a lapthrow by Paula Vaughan; Quilts for all seasons. Below is my progress so far; have not worked on it in a while though .

I began this piece May 2008:

I hope you enjoy my pictures.

Well, I guess these modern gadgets catch up with everyone at some point! So now I too have a blog. Guess it's as good a way as any to keep those interested updated on my stitching progress and whatnot! So, for those interested, I will be using these pages to post (regularly or not!) the updates and progress on my various cross stitch and patchwork projects. Enjoy!

I have been working a lot lately and not exactly on my stitching. Too many hours seeing patients and too little time with the needle.

I am currently working on 2 large cross stitch pieces:

1. Quilted hearts afghan by Stoney Creek


2. Paula Vaughan's quilts for all seasons.

Now, if I can only figure out how to post a picture and get it to appear below the text I've written, then I'd really be on my way!
