Black Cat with Polka Dots


I was pulling together all of the Christmas panels I have when I came across this one that I completely forgot owning.  I don't usually do very much for Halloween but I must have liked this little guy in the pumpkin.  It's a Mary Jane Carey for Henry Glass panel from last year, I think.  
Anyway, I'm hand quilting it with long stitches.  



This is an aster plant the I bought for half price from the "almost dead" section one of the garden stores nearby.  It was a sad thing at first but it's doing well now.  


I got this aster at the same time.  It's really a bush with very small flowers; very delicate in appearance but I think it's a hardy plant.  I'll mulch it really well when the weather turns colder.

Hope all is well.
God Bless.

Christmas QAL, Lanterns and Slabs

This weekend Hazel is hosting the Christmas QAL http://www.hazelsquilts.blogspot.com  Hope you can find some time to join in and quilt with us.  I'm curious and want to see your projects.  If you are new to the QAL, the info intro on the Christmas QAL page is a good place to start.  Both Hazel and I have that posted.
 
Isn't this a beautiful bundle of fabric?  I received it today from Henry Glass Fabrics and is what I won from their July 4th giveaway. 
 
This week they are hosting a Summer Fabric Party.  Check it out. http://henryglassfabrics.blogspot.com/
 
I joined the Lantern QAL at Quilty Habit and completed the first block. http://www.quiltyhabit.blogspot.com   I made 2 of the block because I'm not sure what I'm making in the way of size or design.
 

 
Sharon of Vrooman's Quilts posted today about the slab blocks (scrap blocks) being collected by Cheryl, a quilter in Canada, for victims in Southern Alberta and Calgary.  http://naptimequilter.blogspot.ca/2013/06/slabs-for.html  I have one block completed and one half done and that's just from this afternoon and evening.  After the first block they come together quickly.  This is doable for me because I don't have to make a complete quilt. 
 
 
God Bless You.
