It's been a beautiful week here in Middle Tennessee - but we're getting lots of rain today! That makes for great sewing weather, though - yipee!!
Here's how I did on last week's list...
1. Keep working on the pattern book for the quilt ministry.
The work in progress is still a work in progress...
2. Start sewing on the quilts for Lilli and Emmy.
Done! I finished Emmy's top...
...and I made the snowball blocks for Lilli's quilt top.
3. Make two quilt backs for the quilt ministry.
I made one back, but the other one is still pending.
4. Put borders on a small quilt top for the ministry.
Didn't get to this one!
5. Teach a couple of friends how to use Jolene!
One of my friends came over, and she learned how to use Jolene, quilting a top for the quilt ministry.
6. Work on Emmy's cross-stitched Christmas stocking.
Done - or at least coming long! Here's how it looked last Monday...
...and here's how it looks today!
Slow but steady wins the race, right?
Want to see part of why I didn't get everything on the list done? Saturday we met for our monthly sewing meeting, and set out all the quilts that are going to New Orleans for a picture...

| Many of these quilts came to us as part of Hands2Help! |
...and then Saturday afternoon, we took our daughter and granddaughters to the zoo!!
So Saturday was a busy day all around!
And here's what's on the list for this week...
1. Make a backing for a quilt for the ministry.
2. Put borders on a ministry quilt and make a backing.
3. Finish Lilli's quilt top.
4. Work on Emmy's stocking.
5. Work on the ministry pattern book.
6. Dump out my scraps and make some dump blocks!
OK - that's enough for this week! I'm hoping to get released from some of my restrictions so I can start quilting again next week - we'll see how it goes! Keep your fingers crossed...
So now, the question is - - - what are you working on this week?
Hugs!
