Field Trip to Prints Charming in Maple Lawn

What a nice time we had visiting Prints Charming. The ladies there were very gracious. Jane won a door prize! As usual, I got carried away but only bought fabric that I just had to have. LOL

I'm progressing on my Baltimore Bunnies.  Only 2 more blocks to go.  This is what I have done.ttfn  :)  Yuki

This is part of a quilt that my niece Alyssa and I are making for my cousin's daughter Sachi.Piecing the strips is fast, but then all the blocks have bias edges!

What I did on my (February) vacation

I bought a bag of purple strips at a Block Party Quilt show a couple of years ago.  During my vacation to Maui, I sewed the strips together to make 6.5" squares.  The strips were of varying widths (approx 1 inch to 2.25 inch).  I found this excellent Kaffe Fassett orange floral with purple plums at Quilting Loft near my house.  The center is 42" x 48".  I want to add a purple floral as the border. 

Jenny, Michelle, Frank and I had a SUPER time whale watching off of Maui. 

With a little help from my friends?

Well, courtesy of Hurricane Sandy, I had two extra days to get some things done at home. Unfortunately Oliver, Declan's new playmate, has a different idea of what 'helpful' means than I do.

As you can see in the last picture, I was able to complete 28 pillow cases for my mom's church bazaar. Hopefully they arrived in today's mail (since the bazaar is tomorrow. He's a cutie (very good thing) and he hugs which is lovely!
