I'm so glad you liked the quilt...and yes, I've got a new project started....a yo-yo coverlet.....300 done--only 1200 to go! I finished 30 while waiting in the ER for my aunt to get treated this morning.

I really don't know what I'll do with the quilt.....I started it as a "someday" quilt...you know, someday my kids will drag it around, but the Lord has other plans.....I'm a 18 month cancer survivor and kids are not going to happen......My boyfriend's kids are too old to use it, but maybe step grandchildren some day.

I love looking at all the stuff ya'll make on here. I LOVE the mini aprons and am so tempted to join the swap, but with my track record, I don't know how that would work.

That is a beautiful quilt! It would take me 15 years to make all those yo-yos... LOL I just started on some yo-yos today. Not sure what I'll make with them yet, but it just felt good to be working on something. I'm new here too, welcome !!

that's incredible. I love the look of hand work but am too lazy so I use my embroidery machine.
