Productive Friday Night Sew In

A productive night...

St Patrick`s Day Quilt:
Further progress includes adding all the borders, cutting, assembling the binding and cutting out the  backing.  Its ready for basting!

Saturday Update:  The quilt is now pin basted!

UFO Challenge - March
The number chosen for March was 1!  This was great, a nice simple one, assuming I could find it... It only took 2-3minutes to find tonight, and I was off to finish up - even better was that the binding for the project was folded up with the project.  So finish some of the quilting, square it off, and sew on the binding.  Then I machine stitched down the binding, I`m quite happy the way this one turned out.

This project originally started in May 2009 when I made 6 of these. Only 5 were finished then... the one that didn`t get finished was for my husband.  Now he has one to take into work!

Quilt Along Progress
I cut out my fabric for the Dresden circles tonight.  I did have some difficulties with the template, so ended up redrawing it instead of trying to print it again to have it off size.  Thanks for listing the sizes on it...  I will need to look at the background pieces once I have the background fabric.
I hope I can keep up with the progress of this quilt as the kids are on Spring Break for the next two weeks!

Only one other project attempted tonight - hemming a pair of my sons pj pants... they were a Christmas gift!

Last Handprint Quilt

This one is for me!

Another Quilt

I finished the 3rd quilt today just before heading out to dinner. Only mine left to complete and I think I'll make one for my dad too (for Father's day).

Mother's Day

Here are the first two quilts I did for Mother's Day for my mom and Gram.

The poem reads:

My Hands

These little hands can wave Hello
Or put smudges on the wall
They can fold in prayer, throw a kiss
Or reach up so very tall
They'll clasp your hand for a little stroll
Or shape a ball from clay
But most of all, they'll stay with you
When I'm grown up and far away
