Sometimes it takes me a while
This top was sent to me by a member of the Quilting Queens guild along with a bunch of HeartStrings blocks. The blocks were sent to Sue and assembled into quilts but I hadn’t gotten around to quilting this top until today.
I always warn people that send tops for quilting that it may take me a while to get to them but they DO get finished and donated. I don’t need any external pressure so I make no guarantees about timeframes. Unfortunately, this is the first time I can’t remember the name of the person sending the top, I thought I had a blog post when it arrived but haven’t been able to find it so shame on me BUT the good news is the top is quilted it’s on it’s way to being finished. (And since my memory seems to be going, I’ve bought a notebook to log tops that come in to me and those that go out to a few of the volunteers that help me quilt).
I freehand quilted flowers from the Pajama Quilter DVD.
I delivered two finished quilts today to Habitat for Humanity — pieced by Sharon and by Kathie both took me a while to finish and donate but they were SO thrilled to receive the quilts and I was happy to be a part of finishing and donating them.
And just because he’s too cute….one more photo of Chesty in his hoodie!




OMG, he’s really cute! Does he really not mind wearing clothes?
that is precious! the earless look is good on chesty. my dog would be chewing and rolling around and scratching trying to get that off!
Ooohhh, he is so gorgeous.
Cute, cute cute. I’ll bet you hug him all the time.
I have gone back and looked at this top several times this morning and find that I really like the idea of making it look like it is framed. I do not think you have shown this version before. I like doing the free style flowers from the Pajama Quilter, as well.
I love his expression! hahahahaha It’s like he’s saying “Am I patient or what.” hahahahahaha

What a champ! He’s so absolutely adorable, Mary. He must certainly brighten your days. Thank you so VERY much for sharing pictures with us. Lost our little Ashley a few years ago and still miss her each and every day. They do add brightness to everything
He is too cute!
Oh my , does he ever look cute . It doesn’t seem to bother him either, just
happy to have you there.
the cuteness factor is killing me here
Thank you for the smiles. I lost Maisy girl a week ago today, and definitely needed to smile.
He is just adorable! Everyone needs a hoodie going into the cold winter months! :~)
