Recovering, a time for planning

One of my biggest plans is to participate more... Number one will be the

The hugs and kisses blog hop.  It is sponsored by the people who brought me the Dr. Who QAL!

I LOVE THE DOCTOR...

So, while my hand is healing, I am planning.  This is the first of many things I want to participate in!

All for now, I will say more as...

Carpal Tunnel Surgery

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday. I am having Carpal tunnel surgery this coming Monday and will likely be out of the blog business for at least a few weeks. Just wishing you all the best and hope all your holiday dreams come true!

My camera is broken

Well, it really isn't broken just can't find the charger thing for the battery. I have been in a low mood lately and haven't posted much. I know that someone out there wants me to post so here I am. I need to find my camera thingy because I actually have a lot to show everyone. Love Leah Day. She has helped me to solve some of my FMQ issues. More on that when I can get my camera going. Later, love always, K

Monday Monday

So, I finally finished my Christmas gift to my daughter Andee. It is the largest quilt I have ever done, a King size 100 X 110″! I am really proud of it. She loves dogs and she loves blue so this is the perfect combination, and there are just a ton of little squares of dog pictures on the quilt. The thing you can’t see is that I sent it out for quilting because it is so big… The quilting is an overall dog pawprint. Fun!!!

Matching pillowcases too!

Andee's dog Odhinn loves the quilt, actually he has a quilt of his own.  A smaller quilt I had made for her earlier is the one he has to have to sleep on or he won't go to sleep.  It has to be dragged from room to room for him to get a rest.  And, he is an older fellow so he always gets his way!

 Well, onward and upward. Need to get working. Have a couple of quilts I absolutely need to get done in the near future. Haven’t started one….. Kay

Finished Friday, MSBHQAL

I did it, in record time once I started to put it together.  I had it all cut except for the sashing and border so it was chain piecing to begin and then finish them up one by one.  I loved making this quilt and it is so bright and cheery that my husband says, "it just makes me smile."  So, without further ado, the unveiling of the Molli Sparkles Broken Herringbone Quilt Along, also known as #MSBHQAL.

Isn't it fun?

I know, I hung it sideways but I couldn't fit it all otherwise.

Up close and personal...  I love the fabric and the colors.

Now I need to linky or post to flikr or something.  But, I will figure that out.  Have to put it up first and then do it, so here it goes!  Love always, K

my second entry, the wedding quilt

Bloggers Quilt Festival is going on and I decided to enter another quilt, this time in the lap quilt category.  See the festival entries at www.amyscreativeside.com/bloggers-quilt-festival/

I want to win a Babylock Melody

I cannot do a good job of quilting with my current machine.  No matter what I do, it just pulls and tugs and locks up and does not work.

I know the Babylock Melody will be wonderful for me.  I just entered the Quilt Bloggers Festival, I didn't think I had anything to enter because I forgot all about the really cute "monster cuddle" I made for my grandson.  Wish me luck.  The link to the festival is http://amyscreativeside.com/bloggers-quilt-festival/
