DRUM ROLL---


DRUM ROLL -- PLEASE----

HERE SHE IS--ALMOST FINISHED---



I DID SAY ALMOST--WHO TWISTED THIS LATTICE ON ME--OH, WELL????






I just wished the color came out better--this is really a pretty quilt and I just love it--and that is saying something seeing as I am not really a "peach color" fan--but this color of peach is alittle different and with the tealy blue and green it all comes together--thank you April Cornell for designing this line of fabrics!!
Now to wait for the white cotton batting to come in so I can quilt it--I keep looking at it--but have "NO" idea what design to use on this one yet??????   I also figure I have at least 15 hours on this top--the other two probably only took about 6-7 hours!!!!
SO NOW we can go on to some other things that have been getting madder and madder at me for leaving them in an unfinished state!!!!



Looky what came in the mail today----

some of the Grandmother's Garden line--my daughter called on Tues with some upsetting news and so I took it out on the checkbook and this is what came of it!!!!
DON'T ASK---I have NO idea right now 'what' I will use them for---but hey they will look great in my stash--RIGHT???????

Hugs, Di

Oh I love it!!! It's wonderful. I just love the fabric you chose. You are all done the top and it's only the 14th. You are doing well. I didn't work on mine tonight. Maybe tomorrow, if I feel up to it after work.

It looks gorgeous!!!! The colors are so cheerful. You have been a very busy girl. Plenty of time left in the month for quilting. What will you get up to next??? I hope your news wasn't too terrible. I like your fabric cure. The colors are great. Take care. L,A-

Di, your Picnic Schnibbles looks wonderful! I agree, it took me a LONG time to do this one - too long for as busy as November is.

But think on the bright side -the top is done and the rest should go by much faster.

Beautiful..........and many thanks for the "turkey". It arrived yesterday.

Sewing hugs and blessings...always.

Your Picnic looks great! Your blocks weren't calling to me when you were showing them but as a whole quilt, they look beautiful!
