L*K 6 Fat Men SAL

Oh....I just messed up! I just came across the L*K 6 Fat Men SAL and got all excited when I saw that I could still join the SAL. I posted my information but I have not started to stitch any of the 6 Fat Men. I just ordered the patterns today and the fabric. I am so sorry! I hope my order comes quickly and I will be able to post my progress next Monday! Sometimes I can be such an air head. Thank you for visiting! Christine ~because nice matters~

Mini Mystery SAL

Last week while surfing blogland I can across a mini mystery SAL and I thought it would be fun to participate. This being my first SAL, I liked how you won't receive the second part of the pattern until you finished the first part and there was a deadline of today. This really kept me focused on my stitching since I really want the second part. I finished the first part of the SAL yesterday but didn't have time to write about it until today.I was also surprised how quickly others had finished their first part.

 It is a beautiful Hungarian folk art motif.

Happy April

I would like to wish my quilting buddy a very happy birthday! Today is her day! 
Happy Birthday, Maryellen! I hope you have the best day ever!

And I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. I spent the day in New York City on Saturday. We went to visit my hubs Uncle and see the Broadway show "Claybourne Park". It is a drama and in previews. It doesn't officially open for a few more days and will be interesting to read the reviews. I do prefer musicals.

Sunday was spent doing errands and getting ready for the week. I did have sometime to work on my garden. I sewed together a few more flowers. And here is an updated picture.


I also wanted to share a Jelly Roll Race quilt I have been working on. It still needs to be quilted. Here is a picture. Another UFO!

Weekend Fun!

There wasn't a lot of stitching going on this past weekend. I did a little bite on my Lizzie * Kate cross stitch. Can you tell which pattern it is? I'll give you a hint. It is one that recently came out.

I attended the LIQS's quilt show on Saturday. It was so wonderful to see all the quilts. There is such talent out there in the quilting community. I only took one picture which was of a Elm Creek Quilt. It is on my list to make someday. And I do love the Elm Creek series.


Sorry the picture is so bad.

There were many good venders and I did buy. I brought this baby tumbler quilt kit and some FQs. The baby tumbler quilt kit is very soft and cute. I spent some of Sunday cutting the tumblers now if I could just find the time to sew.


Thank you for visiting my blog!
