Have you visited...

Minerva's Circle ? I've been following this blog for about a year and have loved the camaraderie, the fun, and the food that seem such a large part of every meeting. They've produced bags, quilts, dolls, and what-have-you over the past year; they've learned, experimented and provided support for each other, and I've enjoyed keeping up with them through their blog.

Material Obsession? What gorgeous quilts and inspiration and delicious fabrics and...did I mention the gorgeous quilts?

I finally began applying the binding to the baby quilt begun oh, so long ago. All that is left is to sew down the binding in the few inches where I need to put the label. And, uh, make the label.

Then I thought...where is Circles & Squares? Haven't thought about that one in a while. Found it-- all nicely pin-basted, a little quilting done (very little...I wasn't liking it too much), and folded up where I abandoned it in May when Laddie went into the hospital. So...guess it is time to drag it out and make some progress or maybe unstitch some quilting and then try again.

  4. I too have been hand quilting on a little quilt that was pieced 11 years ago. I drag it out every now & again, & hopefully some day before I die, it'll be finished!

  5. Thanks, ACey!

    Debby, I enjoy both of them when I have time to visit. Funny world this internet!

    Connie, I'm glad they are new to you and not "old hat."

    Deb, Funny how some things capture our interest and force us on from start to finish, and others...are quite willing to wait.
