Quick hello from me...

Just a little quick note from me
so you see I am focusing and trying to get some finishes here..:o)
 All four quilts are quilted and prepared with binding...
no excuse to not have them finish soon then..:o)
I want to say an extra thank you to Mary at Quilt Hollow 
for giving me advice... 
Some days this just drove me nuts!!!

Have one more to quilt... 
but it have to wait.. 
neck and shoulder was about to have enough of the static work...

So I started to  mess up the sewing room  even more....
 Lots of old table cloths and old towels
were cut into pieces...
And yes.. Some of you might recognize the pattern.....
it is this months Schnibble Tagalong...
And this time I did it again... 
adopted the pattern for my needs and made the blocks larger...
and eventually it will be something for the exhibition..:o)

On the sick front..
I am better... not quite super duper well.. but Ok...
was about to go to work today..but..
Viktor is sick... 
When calling in to work.. I couldnt do anything else than laugh...
(thanks boss for your understanding)
 What to do.. 
nothing... at all....
Just get well and long for summer..:o)

    It's great that you have just some bindings to sew on so many quilts -just a final push and they will be done.

    Glad you are feeling a lot better.

  25. I LOVE the tablecloth quilt! I think I could cut up a few of my own, this seems to be a better use for them now! So pretty, I need to see if I have Tagalong, but I like your larger block version better. Your completed quilts are to be admired. Sweet progress! Hope Viktor is feeling well, that both of you will be good as new soon. Spring will come and then the lazy days of summer to dream about.
