Mixing it Up - Quiet Play Mixer

May's Block of the Month
from
Quiet Play  - Sew Kitschy Quilt
Don't forget to look at her Flicker Group 

Here are all my blocks so far.

I told myself I really need to finish some of my UFO's. I did finish 2. I gave my new great niece her quilt yesterday... Oh I forgot to take a photo! I will ask her mom to send me one with little Leah on it and post it when I get it. 
I have figured out  that I am just not a finisher -  While trying to finish projects I just lost my mojo... and so many days have been going by with no progress what so ever - so I am gong to go back to my proven sewing addiction - just keep sewing and worry about finishing - WHENEVER.

My Celtic Solstice from Bonnie Hunter's Site

I had to post this as it is tagged with Bonnie Hunters photo rights. 
Happy dance!

Meeting Bonnie Hunter

Meeting Bonnie Hunter

I have been feverishly trying to finish my 
CelticSolstice quilt as Bonnie Hunter was to be visiting California and the La Habra Quilt Guild Tuesday and a show and tell with her presence would just top off the whole thing.
 I rented a longarm at Quilters Garden last week and started the binding Monday night and finished it in the parking lot of the church the guild meeting was held. Talk about a last minute thing. 
When I got up to the show and tell I asked Bonnie for a photo and being the kind person she is - well here it is! What a thrill!
Bonnie's program was wonderful, she is such an inspiration and if I could only begin to organize my scraps like she does - that would really help out a lot.
