Just look at this beauty!
I admire it every time I move through the kitchen.
Being home yesterday meant that I was able to finish the quilting on this cheerful quilt. I will get to the binding today so it will be completely complete!
Then I loaded up the next quilt which I have to determine a design plan for it. Sometimes it has to sit a while before I can start to stitch on the new palette!
The mail had a package from Quilts for Kids which contains two new kits to turn into quilts! I am up to the challenge. New quilter, Mary, also ordered two kits so we will tackle these together!
The violet looks very happy! Glad to hear that Mary wants to keep quilting. :)
ReplyDeleteI used to love my African Violets but my cats would eat them. My old kitties never bothered with them but this new crop eats all things green. They killed a big plant I had bought when I was 18 years old. I cried like a lost a pet. Darn cats. I tried growing indoor kitty grass for them and wouldn't you know it....the could have cared less about it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful African Violet! My friend Carol who used to quilt (but no longer does) used to make Quilts for Kids.
ReplyDeleteLovely African Violet - I’d stop and admire it often, too.
ReplyDeleteLive the violet. I still haven't found another one. The grocery stores here don't have the selection my old city did. When I go to Mom's at the end of the month, I'm going to have to stop at my favourite nursery and get some more house plants!
ReplyDeleteI bought an African Violet last week that looks just like yours. I repotted it and put it in the window next to the orchid. Now lets hope I can keep the both alive. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe quilts are beautiful as always. I like how you quilted the first one very much.
Blessings,

That cheerful quilt is really gorgeous. I see some fussy cutting there, like the square with the sunflower in the center. What a wonderful quilt!
