Christmas Quilt Along
I am joining with Sue over at QuiltTimes for September's Quilt Along. Since I already have the borders on my Star Quilt, I will work on quilting up 2 charity quilts for our LQS 'QuiltBug' for distribution to those flood victims in need - especially the children. I dropped off 4 quilts on Thursday and they had a number of flimsies donated - so I took 2 to finish off for the project.
I will update my day's progress on this one posting. If you would like to join in with a Christmas project or any other project, be sure to hop over to Sue's and link up.
UPDATE
I finished quilting both charity quilts. Now to make up bindings and get them on.
UPDATE
Since this is a Christmas quilt along, I thought I should pull something of the season. I have been working on my own paperpiece project aside from Tonya's project as seen here . So I put together one of the rows from Sulky International 2004 BOM - I have done 2 Christmas theme and one country theme wallhangings from this pattern. Another fun Christmas one is in the works for a gift.
UPDATE
I have one finished - hate to do bindings by machine! Love the traditional way of doing them. I need a break from these, so grabbing some dinner and then to play in my scraps. I will finish up the other one's binding tomorrow.
Thank you Sue for another fun quilt along. Now off to see what others have finished for the day.
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Good morning Sharon. I'm here now, late, I know. I'm off to sew borders on my Scatty Christmas Stars now. I hope you have a great day and will look forward to seeing what you get up to.
Did you post your Scatty Stars with the border yet? I couldn't find it. I would love to see it!

I am digging out ornament supplies for The Great Holiday Ornament Exchange! Oh, and Stephen and I have on Christmas music.
Woww, you haven't wasted any time have you?
I like your bowtie quilt and love the fabric in the other quilt. It looks like sewing notions - very cute.
I love the 'notions' fabric too - it's really set off by the blue.

And so very very very Hillbilly! I clicked on it and it is going on my someday list. Sooner than later. I just love it Sharon! Then, you knew I would, didn't you??
How generous of you to be working on those charity quilts :-) What a kind thing to do! Someone will be so happy get some lovely quilts.
I love your houses....I've recently gotten entranced with houses, villages, etc. There's so much life you can put into them! blessings, marlene
Your houses are wonderful Sharon. It must have taken ages to do, it looks as though there is so much work in them.
Wow..look at all you got done and I am only just now getting started!!! LOVE the houses!!
Saturdays are busy for me, gotta clean house today since I can't seem to find time during the work week...so even though I can't join in, I like to look at what everyone did today! I love your houses, and the asters on the other post are beautiful!
You got so much done today, you must be exhausted.
Wow you got so much done yesterday. I adore your wonky houses.
Great job on getting so many finished.
