Putsy Work!!!

This weekend is the weekend I get more of these blocks done for the piece border on my 2010 Thimbleberries BOM. Sorry, my camera got lost and one of my children's house so no pictures to show.
You will just have to envision it.

Well I was down to 16 more blocks to make and I got 9 done. They are so putsy to do. I am suprised I got that many done before I was bored. Once they are all done then I can sew them together into the border. I don't know why this quilt bores me. But I can only work on it for so long and then I lose interest.

So I got the fat quarters all cut out for my next fat quarter project. Too bad there is no pictures, such a great bunch of fat quarters, black, beige and off white. I promise there will be a picture soon. Just as soon as I find my camera.

It is snowing just terriably bad outside today. It started around 10 this morning and should last into tomorrow. Just when everything was melting and I was starting to see green. What a shame, but alas it is still winter and we do live in Wisconsin. Anything can happen in Wisconsin.

Pictures soon.

The Quilt is getting there!

So I am making some progress with my Thimbleberries BOM from 2010. There is a series of blocks that need to be pieced and attached as the border on this quilt.
Here are some of those blocks.
I got Fourteen stars and four heart squares done. Still need to do 16 more tree squares and then I am ready to get the border on. Its friday nite, and I am feeling lazy, (so what else is new) and tomorrow will be another busy day.
I am going to see my girl friend in Chilton. She is wheel chair bound but doesn't let that stop her from learning how to quilt.
We need to stretch out and pin some of my quilt tops. She has a wonderful quilt frame that she inherited from her mother. So that will work fine, and at the same time give us some girl time. I need to take a look at her projects to see what kind of help she needs.
Should be a great day...........
