Finally a finish! To say I have under gone some life changes is an absolute understatement! And as a result I have not had much time to sew. However, I did finally get this cute little pink quilt finished. (And not a minute too soon. I the tiny recipient was born in Dallas, Texas a week ago.) Yipee!
And of course, I pieced the back!
It felt really good to be sewing again. After taking an unintended breather, (Your life falling apart usually makes that happen)I'm back to sewing my brains out whenever possible.

And more exciting news? My girlfriend, Miss V,Is coming to Austin on Wednesday. We are going to Houston for the BIG SHOW on Friday. (Yes, that's right 5 days of quilt stuff together! Yipee!!!) So if you see two tall women (I'm 5'8 and she is 6 ft) with short hair at the quilt show in Houston, it could very well be us. So, come say "HI"! We'd luv to visit ya!
Happy sewing!!!

I love your quilting on this...did you have to mark off lines to do that loopy thing around a square thing you always do so nicely?
It's ok, she knows me, and I am sure she knows what on earth I am taling about...
It looks great! I love the fabrics you used... I don't think I have any of them!
speaking of wed. can I come now? I need an escape... but I guess I better fix my darn camera first...
It's a beuatiful quilt. Wish I could say I'll see you both there, but alas, it's still just too far at the moment :( Have a fantastic quilty time!
Pretty pink I've never made one but looking at your fabrics I might be tempted.
Enjoy Huston. No I won't see you there toooooo far from Australia.
Have fun
Such a beautiful quilt Shelly! And great quilting. You and Miss V have a great time; wish I could join you.
such a pretty quilt! Even better, happy to hear you are sewing your brains out again! It's the best cure for anything, isn't it. Having Victoria visit sounds like THE best medicine for life's woes. Have a FAN.TAS.TIC time!!!
