I'll be working mainly on the Woodland Bloom quilt:
Very springish. I have all the flowers cut out so I will be appliqueing (is that a word?) them tomorrow. That will probably take me all day since there are so many of them, but if I finish early I may start on a baby quilt for my cousin who is having her first, a girl!, in April. I want it ready when she is born, so I can put her name on it and get it sent out to snuggle in♥
I think I'll go bake some cookies for the party tomorrow. You want some? Yes? Ok, see you there! ☺

Better late than never, right? ☺
I've been working on this for about an hour already but fogot to post,lol!
Here's my substanence( peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip, yummmm!) And my flowers all cut out and the stripe blocks all sewn.
And here's my little helper making them with me last night♥
I have to admit I am so not thrilled with the way my sewing is going so far. Thread keeps breaking, my stitches look horrible. Blah. So I decided not to make the applique look neat. I'm going to let it fray around the edges. That way it will cover my not so perfect stiches, right? ☺
Off to check out everyone else's projects!

UPDATE: 6:25PST
I finished all the applique blocks and will be working on sewing them together for the quilt top tonight after I get the kiddos fed and in bed☺
Everyone's projects are looking so great!
I'm off to brew some more coffee. It's been raining all day and I need something warm. I just love rainy days♥

I like it a whole lot better now that it is done!
Thanks Kelly and Joan for organzing another great party! I had so much fun. If it wasn't for you two and all the other charming girls and guys I don't think I would get near as much done! ☺

OK So how are the cookies? I am having fun sewing with you. Hope your project is coming along fine. Happy Sewing!
I didn't get my cookie yet! I resorted to Reese's Cup instead.
I will take a couple cookies--and if they have chocolate in them I will take a dozen to go!!!
How is the appliqueing coming??? I am off the machine now and am on to some hand work--

Yum! Cookies! I had a lot of problems starting out too and didn't end up with much progress, but it was fun! Hope you enjoyed the day too! :-)
Love the picture of your little helper - SO cute! And, could you please send me some cyber cookies - I'm starving over here! I think the frayed applique will be great - can't wait to see!
