Unteraegeri Log Cabin Quilt Finished!
My February OMG project, Unteraegeri Log Cabin, was a UFO for over 15 years but is now finished. Hooray for challenges that get things moving! It was the only thing I finished this month, but I’m happy for any progress….
July OMG: More Machine Quilting
We will be travelling quite a bit for the next three months so I debated whether or not to set an OMG (One Monthly Goal) for July. It’s great motivation though and I’m on a roll with machine quilting so…

A Beautiful Wedding

A UFO Finish Plus A Bonus

Charity Finished
Last week I really pushed myself to finish bindings so I could get my stash numbers back in line. Lots of time in the car helped and I was able to get this one finished on the way to the…
