My daughter and I are trying to establish a home-based business with embroidery and sewing. Here are a couple of horse blankets that we embroidered a name on. This was a challenge for us but we are very pleased with the results.

Here are a couple more pictures of Angie. She cracks me up! Here she is spread out in the sunshine coming in thru the back door. When I looked over she looked like a seal laying out on the beach. She is so funny and so much company. She can be very independent, you can call her until you are blue in the face and she just sits there. Then there are times she stares out into the other room and I have to look out there too to see what she is staring at.

I am so excited..... I finally finished one of my UFO's. This is a 3D Pinwheel that I started about 2 or maybe even 3 years ago. It was put aside because I couldn't figure out whether to make a wall-hanging or to keep adding rows for a throw or twin size quilt. There was also the decision to make for a color for the border and the backing.

As you can see I kept it the original size and it would make a nice wall hanging or could be used as a lap throw. The dark green just seemed like the best color to use for the border and backing. Now I am happy with the way it came out. One down and a few more to go!

I just have to say how amazed I am at the beautiful work I see displayed on many of the blogs here on blogspot. So many diverse and talented people. They really do inspire me, and I have to say thank you to the ladies that encouraged me to start a blog too.

Well, I finally finished the butterfly quilt for the senior center raffle. The top picture colors are the true colors, the bottom picture came out lighter.

I am really pleased with how this came out and hope it will help raise a lot of money for the center.

Here is another quilt for kids quilt. I can't take credit for this because somone had already put the top together and then either didn't want to finish it or couldn't for some reason. So I took it, layered it, quilted and put on a binding. I do like the look of it.

Quilts for kids will be having a fund raiser the end of this month and 2 of the quilts I did for them will be raffled off. That makes me feel good, that they liked them well enough to feel they would be good for a raffle.

Here is my Disappearing 9 Patch. I really like the way it works up so will use this pattern again.

Betty (DD), is making one in shades of browns and greens for my oldest grandson (the one in my picture) who is heading off to school soon. I saw one block all done and it is going to be gorgous. Maybe I can get a picture of it to post here before she gives it to him.
