SNIPPETS OF CAROL: Christmas Tree Skirts

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2012/12/christmas-tree-skirts.html

Saturday, December 22, 2012. Here are views of two of the Christmas Tree Skirts I have made this year. Daughter Grace wanted a blue and silver for her new white tree. So this is a Judy Niemeyer paper pieced star pattern that I used. It looks better in reality than the picture. The back side is blue and white snowmen. My daughter took the picture on her kitchen floor. Sorry about my feet in the picture. This is another one for my son and daughter-in-law in red and black. December 22, 2012 at 8:10 AM.

SNIPPETS OF CAROL: February Finishes

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2013/02/february-finishes.html

Wednesday, February 27, 2013. This weekend I finally finished a Christmas tree skirt that just needed quilting and binding on it. I think my grandson wanted this one for his stash. Will see. I have another top done and needs to be quilted. During the day when Katie is sleeping I am working on the one that daughter wanted. The colors are so nice. Are you making them for all the grands? That is really nice! Katie wont need hers for a while:). February 27, 2013 at 5:37 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

SNIPPETS OF CAROL: MoJo Lost and Found

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2013/03/mojo-lost-and-found.html

Friday, March 1, 2013. MoJo Lost and Found. The last few weeks I lost my MoJo and wasn't sewing much. Of course, since I am the main dish washer in this home and I sliced my sewing finger with a serrated knife last week and couldn't do dishes or sewing, that's my excuse. So this week I got back my MoJo and have learned to sew without my index finger and got some one else to do do dishes and I actually got some things finished. This was supposed to be a year of finishes. Mojo found for sure! Carol, I boug...

SNIPPETS OF CAROL: EASY STREET

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2013/04/easy-street.html

Tuesday, April 30, 2013. Where has this month gone? I have been busy crazy. Spent ten days in Tennessee with my daughter and grands over Easter break, which was so nice. Anyway, I did finish up my 'Easy Street' quilt and for the first time took it out to be quilted. Am pleased with the quilting even if the lady changed the color of thread on me. What's up with that? So doesn't blend in with the back. But it looks great on my bed and love that it is done! A close up of the 15" blocks. 13 in 2013 Challenge.

SNIPPETS OF CAROL: JUST TAKES TWO & NEW MYSTERY

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2012/12/just-takes-two-new-mystery.html

Friday, December 28, 2012. JUST TAKES TWO and NEW MYSTERY. I finished the top of it Just Takes Two before I left NC last week. Loving the red and white and it is a reminder of the family quilt of my mom's that was lost. I will have to decide on a name for it and how to do the borders. It was a great mystery follow along quilt to do this past year. Now another mystery for 2013, the Easy Street Quilt by Bonnie Hunter [Quiltville.com]. A close up [sorry for the blurriness]. Your JT2 is beautiful! And the St...

SNIPPETS OF CAROL

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2013/09/this-is-progress-on-dear-hannah-quilt.html

Tuesday, September 24, 2013. This is the progress on the Dear Hannah quilt that I am making for my grand-daughter, Hannah. She posed in front of the quilt. She likes to pick out the colors for the blocks. I really need get working on more blocks for this. Hannah is in fourth grade and loves to go down and sew with my fabric scraps. She has made many outfits for her dolls, they are looking really good. So far she hasn't sewn her fingers, but I tell her it will happen at some point. 13 in 2013 Challenge.

I love it all. I made this neighborhood table topper for the friend I sent too, Cindy. Hope you have had some time to sew today. Dear Hannah Q...

http://snippetsofcarol.blogspot.com/2013/02/why-i-have-been-busy.html

Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Why I have been busy. Wow its almost been a month since I have posted. I did some more of my ATW blocks and have got two more back. Will take pictures. Just wanted to say that this is why I have been busy. Katie is six months old now and a delight. I do not miss the sewing time taking time with my cutie-pie. So precious, so sweet! Stitching can wait. You have your priorities right:). February 19, 2013 at 2:31 PM. Carol, she is adorable! You are lucky to have this time with her!
