                                            FIONA'S FOREST FAIRY (back)

I can't believe that I finished two big quilts in 2015 so far.....I made both of these in the QAYG
method and they really went fast....

Unfortunately, we couldn't get to Willa's little 2nd birthday party...;--(((

{But the good news is that my DH is feeling a whole lot better....;-))) }

But we will see them,hopefully,soon and gift them then.

It was so beautiful here today, we both sat out on our deck, Tom with his computer and
me with Mom's Poms which I am continuing to hand quilt.
 I must say that the Valdani thread is wonderful--i just love working with it...

.(now I am spoiled!!)

hugs to all Julierose, La blageuse

COMING BACK....SLOWLY

Here's the hand work that has sustained me through many a long night since Mom's death...

Nine Pomegranates : all appliqued and..........

I finally figured out the side setting triangles....

All of the Poms and setting triangles are batiks from my collection that I have been Saving...

(Hoarding, rather ;--000)

*********************

And here are the QAYG blocks for Fiona's Forest Fairy Quilt

(this is still a work in progress-- there was no way I could

 give Willa a Fairy quilt and not Fiona, too, right??))

I decided...for what am I saving all these gorgeous batiks??? 

And so I used them on the borders of her blocks 

Here are two of my favorites....

AND

I do love the texture that this QAYG gives...all that is left 

for the front are the side borders....

I have ordered fabric for those.

So, mes amies, I am still quilting and coming to terms with moving on with my life.

It is quite something to find yourself the "new" older generation.

So many memories, so many years......

I want to thank you all (hope I didn't miss anyone in my replies!) for all of your kind condolences and prayers and wonderful good thoughts winging my way... they really helped......

Hugs to you all

(P.S.  Now to begin catching up on my RSC light blues--and here it is already Red for July!!)
