No quilting done this week............

It's been a busy week getting my old roof off and the new one on. 

The roof before, very weathered cedar shakes......

This is what I had to deal with once they were all off....     

 

And this is the finished roof.......                           

 

Hope to get back to quilting later next week, but have things to get tucked in before winter arrives!

 

 

Granddaughter has arrived...............

Miranda Lee -- September 13, 2012, 7 lbs. 11oz., 20 1/2 inches long.

Miranda and her Daddy

 

 

Need to get busy on that quilt!

 

Great-nephew has arrived.............

My great-nephew was born yesterday (still waiting for my granddaughter).  I have his quilt top complete and ready to be basted to the batting and backing.  I thought about embroidering his name and birth date on the red border, but also thought of just embroidering a block to put on the back of the quilt.

I still have one more row of flowers to sew on my granddaughters hexi-flower quilt, but it's getting there!

Prim Doll Challenge...............

I joined Coth Doll Artistry hoping it would inspire me make dolls again. A pumpkin pattern was provided to use however you chose, this is what I came up with for the Prim Doll Halloween Challenge.  I call her Mrs. Peter-Peter Pumpkin Eater.  She is about 6-inches tall.
