Good Morning Quilters!

Have you ever been obsessed with a quilting project and wanted to work on it nonstop?  Once in a while it happens to me, and this is how I have felt lately about this Jane Stickle cross stitch project.  At the rate I am going, I will be finished with it by next week’s post.  18 more blocks to go!  It has been so much fun.

Here is what it looks like right now:

When it is finished I will jump back into quilting, as there are many quilts that are waiting for me.

Tell me if you have ever been smitten with a project so much that you didn’t want to stop working on it.  Join our Design Wall Monday Linky Party below and show us your pictures and link to your blog.  A big thank you to all who participate.  I appreciate you.

Good Morning Quilters!

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, and I am a romantic at heart.  Here are two of my favorite quilts that I have made to celebrate Valentine’s Day:   This first one is king sized, so I am showing it in two pictures………the bottom half showing in the first picture in the entry hall with Miss Penny Lane and the top half is in second picture (upside down) as it is hanging over the railing to the lower level.

This quilt utilizes a simple four patch design (3 parts red and 1 part toile) to resemble hearts.  

Happy Valentine’s Day to you all.  I hope you are able to hug someone this week, or hold their hand.   It is great to have a holiday that reminds us of our love for others.

I am still cross stitching on the little Jane Stickle quilt project, and am getting better at it.   Here is a picture to show my progress so far:

It is halfway finished now, and I am really enjoying it.  I am at the point in this project that I want to work on it nonstop until it is finished.  Do you get that way sometimes with a project?

What are you making progress on this week?  And what Valentine’s Day decorations or quilts do you display ?  Join our Design Wall Monday Linky Party below so we can look at your blog and photos.  Thank you for all who participate.  I am sending all of you a big Valentine’s Day hug.

Good Morning Quilters!

Can you believe one month in 2026 is gone?  February came so fast for me, but I guess it is understandable, since I’ve been on the couch most of January.  My knee is feeling much better and the swelling is going down.  I’ve ditched the cane and am walking without any assistance.  But also I’m not out much in the ice and snow.  

While recuperating and icing my knee, I’m working on the cross stitch of Jane Stickle’s quilt.  If you want to know more about the kit, see my blog post last week.  It seems to be going fairly fast, and I’m on the second quarter of the pattern.  I miss quilting, but will get back to it when this little project is done.  

Here’s what my progress looks like so far:

What are you working on?  Please post your picture below and ad a link to your blog post.  We have such talented quilters here, and I always enjoy reading your blog posts and looking at your pictures.  Thank you for faithfully participating.
