We are ready to head back into hibernation. Yes, the Northeast is still cold and with more snow predicted for the next couple of days - UGH - tired. Sorry the Queen doesn't sleep in the most lady like poses.

I was re-organizing, sorting piles and putting things away - didn't you see that Jelly Roll jump right into my hand? Yes, something new. Using a pattern from Maryquilts.com - boxed boxes with a jelly roll that uses the maximum of all those lovely strips. Will do blocks inbetween some hand work.
I decided to quilt up the 'Let's Play Marbles' and just have to finish the binding by hand. I think I am very tired of green.
I pulled a small UFO to handquilt - a peek at some whimsy. I need a little whimsy and some handquilting. Maybe some fun embellishing on this, too. And - it's not green.

The Queen looks totally contented - lol! The boxed boxes looks like fun and I have a jelly roll that could be used for that. The UFO looks so cute - love the piggy. Stay warm and hopefully this will be your last snow of the season.
Hey don't laugh... my hubby sleeps like that! :(
She looks contented!
Love ya pig too! :)
The boxed boxes look like a lot of fun, and possibility for some great color combinations...but no green, right?! Looking forward to seeing that one progress.
Love the kitty...mine is stretched out beside my desk in a similar pose. Total relaxation!

Oh my, have you signed up for all those swaps? Certainly that will be a lot of fun but also a lot of work. Oh well, fun beats work every time. :) blessings, marlene
I think it must be a cat thing. My mail cat sleeps that way. It looks very comfy. I went over and signed up for the Quilted Fabric Basket Swap. I am so excited.
If only I slept as good as the Queen. :)
Stay warm girlfriend. It's cold here in the South too. Dag!
xx, shell
I guess if she is a queen she can sleep however she wants!!
You can't be tired of green...it's SPRING!!!
Oh what a cute contented kitty!
I've been looking at Mary's boxed boxes pattern. Looks like fun!
You are one busy lady :)
Hope this will be the LAST snow of the season. Stay warm.
Lots of things going on in your world. Love that little friendship basket. Found a cute pattern for similar one online that I want to make for granddaughters for Easter--hope I can leave my other quilting long enough to do that.
Tired of green--anything in too much makes me weary--I'm sure tired of pastels right now!
Love your blog!
Poor little queen, obviously stressed to the max -- LOL! Love those quilts, you've been busy!
Oh she looks so exhausted. Bet she has caught 100 mice in her dreams!
I have never seen the Maryquilts site so thank you for pointing that out!! I can see today might be quite unproductive now! What a great site...so many gorgeous designs. Will look forward to seeing the boxed quilt.
love the pig, I collect them, where did you get the pattern? The royalty is just adorable!!
You are one busy gal!! Whew! I got tired just reading all the things you're quilting! I'm impressed
Blessings
