I finished the last two BQL challenges yesterday, including binding. Here they are…..
I especially enjoyed doing the embellishing on the purses.
I had commissioned my friend Anita’s husband (Bill) to make a rust piece for me that looked like sunflowers. Last night she presented me with this wonderful piece…..
I cant decide which side I want to use…..what do you think?
I think that I am going to print out a bunch of copies of this photo and practice designing the quilting.
I am leaving for Texas in the morning to spend a few days with my Mom. The main project that I want to do is to document all of her quilts……she has done some wonderful ones.
I will try to post if I can. I am actually excited about trying to do an email post, but am not sure that I know how. If you see some strange entries, you will know that I am trying to figure out the process.
Until later…….

This is Ashley, Martha Gillilan’s daughter(from Abilene). I heard Aunt Lois(I guess you don’t call her “Aunt” Lois, duh!) say once that you do your finishing by machine. Do you really do that on full size quilts? I think that sounds easier, but the only finishing quilting I’ve done on a machine were on baby quilts, so it was really easy to do on the small sewing machines.
Hey Ashley. Send me an email fmarnold.cpa@charter.net so that I can email you back. Thanks,Frances
You are obviously going to take back some wonderful memories from this trip, even tough you have decided against the move. I could do with finding a place like that which does what they do with tea, but with coffee. Obviously no H & S over there, what on earth was he doing?
