Whooping it Up


I was able to hand off the Princess quilt to my daughter when we planned our re-scheduled get together.  I wanted the boys to hold this up - no dice.


I got this instead..........


And this one marched off with attitude - zoom in NaNa..........


And this one just took us all in - too busy with her breakfast.....


And as you can see, the fruit doesn't fall too far from the tree.


In keeping to my daily list of things I really need to do - I did fit in some other things.  These are my piles of fabrics (with notes) for the I Can Do Scrappy mystery.  This is a self made button on my sidebar.  A quilt along in honor of Kevin the Quilter.  I believe a lot of you sent him QOV blocks.  I just hit my bins and pre-cuts.  The HSTs I have an advantage on you all as I do up and keep all those prescious things - just pulled the count out of the bin.


For my RSC15 projects, I just had the two Sawtooth Stars that go along with those cute houses.  I prepped the pieces when I did the houses, so it was a quick stitch up.


The border got put on the Let's Book It project.  I have one last 'must do' items on my list.  So if that get's done early, I might just get this quilted before the link up.


And Miss Bella who wouldn't pose for the Pet's on Quilts Show - guess if you lay out something that needs a hurry finish and is great for camouflage she will appear.


Moe being Moe!  I pulled a project to just play a little before the weekend must do project.  Don't think I am going to get to play.  Oh well, I need to sort and re-organize my fabric shelves (again).

AND I KNOW - a lot of you have those loveable family members for Pets On Quilts - I've seen them!!  Please join in...........

***new buttons are going up on the side bar, so take a peek - some will be coming down soon as things end - will try to get some blog hop buttons over there is time allows (so many going on right now)*** 

Have a lovely weekend,
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

With all the extra helper antics, you amaze me by getting anything done! I'm with Moe and Bella....nap time.

Sarah said...

I'm pretty sure I have several similar photos of my nephews!! Gotta love the furkids doing their own thing - kinda the furry version of the boys silly faces!

Dana Gaffney said...

The family pictures are so fun, they'll have you all smiling and laughing years from now. You could edit your Pet's on Quilts post for the lovely Miss Bella, but she's a star even if she's not in the show.

The Princess quilt turned out beautiful! And I just loved the fun family pics - where is the picture of you sticking out your tongue???? Love the idea of a Mystery Quilt to honor our friend Kevin - can't wait to see that one taking shape. I've sworn off mysteries, so I'll just watch this one from the wings :*)

Awesome Princess quilt - I know two little girls who would fight over it, for sure! Whoop whoop!!

Calicojoan said...

Oh my gosh, what a perfect border for the princess quilt. Silly boys, they have no idea that those princesses are going to look might good to them in a few years down the road! LOL!!

Needled Mom said...

LOVED the attitudes of the boys. It is so typical....but that little princess is darling. The finished quilt is wonderful for a little girl.

Marei said...

I love the feet of the princess sticking out....as well as all the faces of the family. I can see you were having a good time...except for Mr. Attitude, but there's always one, isn't there?

gayle said...

I love seeing all your projects! The family photos are wonderful, too!

Kate said...

Love the bright colors you used for the Princess Quilt. Those boys, just don't get Disney princesses do they. Looks like you had a fun day with your family. You get so much done each week. I'd be totally confused trying to keep up with that many projects at once.

Jennie in GA said...

Looks like you are really busy! Love all of your blocks....and your helpers and family, too.

PaulaB quilts said...

It's a good thing you have so many helpers (or not), both male and feline. Keep up the good work.

scraphappy said...

So much fun at your place these days! Love all your little "helpers" so sweet! Lots of great projects to keep you busy when they are all gone though.

Sheila said...

Delightful post, Sharon! Love the pictures of your family, human and fur babies! Lots of projects going on ....... : )

Magpie Sue said...

Busy, busy, busy! I can't keep up with you! Good job all around though. :- )

Nell's Quilts said...

I think your family had way too much fun saying no way to Grandma! They look like a great crew! Some lovely projects on the go!

Michele said...

Too bad those crazy boys wouldn't help out Grandma. Glad you had fun with them.
