Reveals today

Today is reveal day at Art Quilts Around the World--check out the pieces there!  The theme was The Road Less Traveled, this is my piece:

And the PAQA-South show opened Friday in Cary, NC.  The theme was "Freeze Frame" and our quilts were supposed to be based on a photograph.   Here is the picture I used, taken in May or June in my garden.

From that picture came these two quilts:

Time flies!

My two entries for the upcoming PAQA-South member show were accepted, more information about the show is here.  I was going to post pictures of my entries but no longer have them since my computer at work got a virus and EVERYTHING is currently gone that was on it (and that's where my pictures were).

So, only a few little pictures today, after not posting for a MONTH.  

A couple of baby quilts, for my niece Taylor's new baby, Emma.  Emma was born about a month early, back in August, so these aren't too late, she just arrived too early. 

 Simple straight lines, and simple diagonal line quilting.

And this one I just fused flowers on a blue background, then quilted flower and leaf shapes all around.  I seem to be getting lazier as I get older...

I've been working on some other projects, but forget to take pictures.  My goal is to try to clean up and use most of my commercial fabric stash by the end of the year.  Not realistic, but gonna try!!

Oh, and some hooking practice with some wool that I dyed last month, just trying to get a feel of how the strips look when hooked.
