What a day!
Today was awesome! I was in the midst of giving Micah a bath and we had a surprise knock on the door. It was my parents! Yahoo! They really know how to surprise and they have the "pop-in" mastered! I love it because we live so far away from them and I said my goodbyes on Sunday thinking I wouldn't see them for awhile. What a treat, I had the best day with them. The kids were so excited to see Grandma and Grandpa too, they were much more hyper than usual and that is saying something. It was so great. I love you Mom and Dad!
So, the parents came and I didn't get quilting done today, but I did get a quilt finished last night. Here it is for your viewing pleasure....
This quilt is called "All Dressed Up" and the design is by Nanette of Freda's Hive. Nedra of Cactus Needle pieced it and she did a beautiful job. I have yet to tell her it's finished because I was distracted by my parents showing up, sorry!
This is another one of the quilts I will have a hard time giving up. So much goes into quilting and a little bit of love with each one. I have yet to quilt one of my quilts like this, but one is in the works and I can't wait to share. But I have to get a few more quilts done first!
It was fun bringing each dress to life, this is such a fun design. I filled in the background with some circle pebbling. I love it!
I loved the back on this one just as much as the front.
So, there you go! Another quilt finished, two more this week I hope! Crossing my fingers! Oh, I need a few more names submitted for my Green Fairy, it's not that I don't like the names given, but it's like naming one of our kids - Clint and I don't agree on anything. I am sure I will end up just choosing the name myself, but I just need a few more to chose from! More than one suggestion is more than welcome! Thanks for all the help!
