Auction quilt

I'm halfway finished with the flower blocks for the auction quilt. After the surprise snowfall we had today, it is nice to work on something with the promise of Spring.

Fabric for Alyssa

My older granddaughter Alyssa loves Mermaids, so what better material than this Mendocino fabric by Heather Ross? I have to finish up the auction quilt I am making and Bill's quilt, then I'll get to work on this one.

goodies for Margara

I made a few surprises for my daughter Sierra to bring to Margara in Honduras this week. By now she should have given them to her, so I can post the pictures now. I made a keepsake box at a Close to my Heart class, a drawstring bag from a free tutorial from Pink Penguin (http://ayumills.blogspot.com/) and a quilted list taker that I bought the tutorial from JC Handmade (http://jchandmade.typepad.com/jc_handmade/)
