Tickcing prints make great pillow backings. A very easy way to give an old-fashioned look.

I prepped this today. It’s basted now so I can hand quilt it. It will be quilted using size 8 pearl cotton and a larger stitch. :)

Thank you all so much. I’m trying to get four quilt tops to the finished status before the end of the year. This is number 2. I gotta get busy! Lol

I know what you mean. I am grabbing time to finish a twin quilt that I'll donate to our Animal shelter fundraiser. I also have 3 more to work on for a DCF children's closet. It's hard to find time .

Today I made the binding for the quilt I'm taking to my nephews re-wedding vows in September. The binding is machine sewed onto the front, now I just need to hand sew on the back to finish.
I'm also thinking about the apple swap items I'm planning on making/getting.

Flamingo decor are wildly popular down here in Florida, specially over on the coastal areas. You can find them in all sorts of places to purchase. I would say they are a go to staple for many Floridians for their gardens or as lawn ornaments.

Your flamingo is just too too adorable, Katmom. Have you named him yet? I am doing a wee junk journal challenge with two other Farmgirls, and my jj has a flamingo mascot named George. LOL.
