Wow, I didn't realize this morning that this would be a day that would bring more projects my way. I picked up this log cabin quilt from my quilter this morning. Once this queen sized quilt is bound (gotta get on it!) it will be donated to the Ballerina's elementary school to be raffled. The proceeds will go toward purchasing a new mobile computer lab with lap tops that can be moved from classroom to classroom.
I recieved these four fabrics that I ordered to add to my movie night quilt. I think I have enough fat quarters to get started now. How exciting!
And these fabrics came from my friend, Joan. I was telling her how much I admired THESE blocks that she made. I only had a FQ of the Candy Coated Christmas fabric, so Joan offered to help supplement the fabric that I had. I was expecting the Christmas fabric, but the four green FQs were a total surprise!
She also included this quilt pattern. I have seen a similar quilt done is Civil War fabrics and also in 30's reproductions. Hmmm.....which will it be? Thanks, Joan, you're the greatest!!!

On a sad note, my husband's sister passed away last night. It was really unexpected, so we are reeling with all sorts of emotions today. My SIL was loved by so many and will be missed by all who knew her. I love you, Kris, and I'll miss your smiling face!
Hi Kairle:
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are always so so good. The one of Mt. Timp-whew! The log cabin quilt is awesome. How do you get so much done? Sorry about your SIL...was she sick?

I'm so sorry to hear about your SIL. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is beautiful. I hope they make a lot of money on the raffle. A mobile computer lab is a good cause.
I'm so sorry about your SIL. My thoughts go out to you and your entire family.
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is lovely -- and a very worthy cause for donation. And those snack fabrics? Lovely :0).
I love the quilt that will be raffled, very nice!! Of course, food fabric is always fun...although when you are sitting under a food quilt you tend to be hungry. I am sorry to hear about your sister in law, I'm sure she knows how loved she was.
ReplyDeleteI am so terribly sorry to hear about the sudden passing of your SIL - thoughts and prayers for you and yours!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is beautiful; I hope it helps raise tons of money.
Enjoy the other goodies and treasures.
You've got so much going on. The death of your sister-in-law is a loss that your whole family will feel. I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteYour projects look great. I take comfort in things I can do when life is hard. I'm sure you do, too.
The finished (will be bound) quilt is really rich and nice.
I am so sorry to hear of your families loss. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. It is always hard to say good-bye to a loved one.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the picture of the cat! LOL. Pretty cat too. LOVE the be mine heart wreath! I can't wait to see your movie night quilt done, what a great idea! Mt. Timpanogos looks amazing!So wish I could live in Utah! So sorry to hear about your SIL. My prayers are with you. Hope the rest of your week is totally awesome! Love ya, Jodi
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is so beautiful. You have such a talent.
ReplyDeleteI was sorry to hear of your SIL's death. It's hard when a death is unexpected.
I loved your photo too. Utah sure is scenic! I wouldn't mind living in Utah, but I don't think my daughter's mission president would be too keen on the idea! She's serving on Temple square!
Love the log cabin. I pulled mine out and it's hanging on my design wall as we "speak." Your cat picture cracked me up!!!!! I actually laughed out loud. It took me a moment to realize what I was looking at and then BWAAHAHAHA! I really don't go for cat chat but this one caused me to call DH in to have a looksy. Even he chuckled! SO sorry for the loss in your family. Big cyber hugs coming your way.
ReplyDeleteBetter get busy now and get that log cabin bound. I know you really LOVE to do that. Looks like you have lots of new projects.
ReplyDeleteKairle, did Joan send you the directions for those stars? If so, can you e-mail me? I think that's a really neat way to use that fabric. And if you need more, just holler--I have tons of that Candy Coated focus fabric! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your SIL, Kairle. I send both you and your hubby good thoughts - you're in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is beautiful! It will make a lot of money for the computer lab, I am sure. Your food fabric is so cute - it's making me hungry!
Im so sorry about your sister in law. It's even worse when it's unexpected. My thoughts are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI love those civil war patterns. I've made several of them. Great directions.
Oh No! I'm so sorry about your sis-in-law. My prayers go up for the family!
ReplyDeleteI hope your mailbox love will help you be happy in this time of sadness. I love your quilt, log cabins rock!
