Waiting for the Weekend

I'm eagerly awaiting the weekend, even though I don't have the best of plans. I have a two day training to attend which makes it so that I can't thrift on Saturday morning. Bummer! Hopefully I'll still be able to sneak some stitching time in. I currently have four quilt tops ready to be finished. I just have to buy some batting and make the backs.

I've finally saved up enough yellow to make myself a quilt like the one that I made for my mom (my mom's quilt is below).

Here's my yellow stash:

Thank you Shellysquilts and Amber! It took me forever to finish my mom's quilt because it was so large (queen), but hopefully my little full sized quilt won't take as long :)

How on earth do you complete such HUGE projects. Your quilts are amazing

It looks like you have some super sweet 70s yellow calicos. I love the 70s calicos!

I have the fabric on the top of you stash and am looking for a project for it. Love the quilt too!

Also stunning. They are inspiring. Thank you. I might head back for a bit more graphic in my next quilt!

Hi Betty! I found your site through the Common Threads quilting bee that you did last year. I'm trying to get a virtual bee started. Any chance you're interested in doing one again? You can contact me at senoritalaura@gmail.com

hello, writing to you regarding alabama stitch book and studio style projects. i have started an 'alabama stitching' group over at mysewingcircle.com as i would love to not only see what people are making but also be able to discuss/ask questions etc. i thought that you may be interested and was wondering if there was a way of letting other group members know?
