The first hand appliqued Baltimore style quilt I made many years ago. Still has a place on the wall - except Christmas time when I hang something else up. Had another one there for a while but took it down for Christmas and it has been lost in the wild blue quilters yonder.......

"Batimore Test" is what I think I will call this one.

I have been teaching others how to do the various types of applique - an interesting project. There is a mistake there too that hasn't been fixed!!! The patterns were picked from different books.

Splurged out here and did a Block of the Month from Leesa at Chandlers Cottage. Just got to add the sleeve now. Had it pinned up on the wall to decide where I am going to put it. Great quilt to do, it's 3d so some of the flowers stick out.

If you like button hole applique, this is one you

HAVE to do. Designed by Michele Hill of Adelaide

called William Morris Floral Sampler.

Tis the first one of Micheles quilts that I have done and loved the finished item. I am now doing another two of Micheles patterns with a couple of others on the shelf calling to me :)

Quilty Gal bought the pattern for this miniature as a gift many years ago. Great little project to do. Dimensions are about 10" square and a need to have quite a bit of patience. Loved the challenge.

....and finally for today.... the quilt that Quilty Gal made me for my 40th Birthday!!! To quote " Good friends are like Old Quilts, they never lose their warmth" and on the back "they just get faded and smelly!"

Well I hope I didn't fade too much or get too smelly!!!!

Now it is time for bed and the beauty sleep (God knows I need it!!!) and some energy for tomorrow as its "Slobs and Snobs" day - can't wait......
