<br />
The quilt is called <b><i>Thicketty Mountain</i></b> and the free pattern is found at American Made Brand - click <a href="https://americanmadebrand.com/projects/">HERE</a>. Some of the patterns are free (pdf) and others bring you to a different site. My daughter already claimed the quilt but maybe I should keep it for myself.<br />
<br />
Since last FNwF I made a baby quilt and pillow case. The 'Baby" is almost 9 months but at least it's finally finished.<br />

Mice seem to like to get warm in the house. we cleaned up after one last weekend and another mouse this weekend...we hope that's the end of it this season!<br />
<br />
I sewed a little Friday after getting home late from work and then a little on Saturday. A friend gave me the pattern <b style="font-style: italic;">Halloween Blooms </b>from Fig Tree & Co<b style="font-style: italic;">. </b><br />

Since this year I'm using fabric and scraps from home I went 'shopping' in the closets and found a layer cake that my daughter would like. It's bright, has flamingos and I just searched online for the name but maybe its older than I thought.<br />

It snowed and snowed and snowed yesterday. Everything is White! The trees still look beautiful this morning with all that snow but I was glad the roads were clear since it was a work day.<br />
<br />
I'm a little late in posting my stitching this week. I worked on "Blanket Weather" by Kathy Wall at <a href="http://www.woolkeeper.com/">Woolkeeper</a>. (<a href="http://www.woolkeeper.com/">Click Here</a>). I made one for myself and I'm working on finishing one for each of my sisters (only two, one older and one younger).<br />

MY DAUGHTER LOVED IT!<br />

I also worked on stitching from Gail Pan's new Christmas book. I know it's hard to believe but I misplaced my book in my sewing mess or I would take a picture of the cover. I taught a class and we made ornaments...<br />

It was a nice night out - a lot of talking, good food and of course a little sewing.<br />
<br />
I worked on a Christmas project for my daughter. Since she was little we've looked for an Advent Calendar <span style="text-align: center;">or count down for Christmas and I finally found a nice one.</span><br />

You are suppose to make a quilt and then add the blocks each day. Here is the quilt without the border and a start on the blocks. I changed the pattern a little and made the blocks out of wool so I could do hand stitching instead of machine. My goal this year has been to use my stash for projects. For this project I used scrap pieces of wool and only purchased the background fabric. For the quilt, all the colorful fabrics were from my stash but I will need to buy border fabric. </div>

<br />
I know I've missed many <strong>FNwF </strong>and various other online swaps and such but there were many hospital visits and doctor appointments since January. My husband and his newly acquired pacemaker seem to being doing pretty well but still has a few restrictions until his next appointment.<br />
My daughter has been feeling under the weather for quite a while and I just got over Bronchitis. I think I was just worn out from worrying and taking care of my family that my allergies and a cold was just too much.<br />
<br />
I look forward to seeing what everyone has been stitching. Please join me at <strong>Cheryll's FNwF</strong> (click <a href="http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com/">HERE</a>) and see all the wonderful projects.<br />

A few mindless computer games and a little TV watching in a comfortable recliner .... I fell asleep. So FNwF happened on Saturday.<br />
<br />
This is the same quilt I worked on last month but there's a bit more done. I have 20 of the 42 blocks complete.<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I also am working on Mystery 2015. I completed the first eleven months and the twelfth month is as much work as all the previous months together! Right now I'm adding a red a white three patch to two of the sides of a nine patch. The squares end up to be bigger the a 25 patch in the end and I think it will be queen sized. I hope to have it finished by next FNwF....</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Friday I spent a delightful afternoon with Jinny at a quilt shop and of course we both just had to by fabric and other goodies. Why is it so much more fun to start a project than finish one......</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Friday evening I did some prep work for a wool class I took on Saturday. It's a design by Kathy Wall and you can visit her at her shop on line Woolkeeper by clicking<a href="http://www.woolkeeper.com/"> HERE</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As you can see I finished the cover but today I'm going to work on the pages. Labels are included so you can keep track of all the different needles. Maybe I'll keep myself organized!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Friday, I started my day working, then a little stitching and I spent a few hours helping set up a Quilt Show. The Saturday Quilt Show was wonderful and I had my daughter take pictures so I'll post them later this week. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Here's what I stitched on Friday</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is a kit by Kathy Wall of <a href="http://www.woolkeeper.com/">Woolkeeper</a> called <b><i>Summertime</i></b>. I love her kits - she labels all the wool pieces so there's no time wasted on guessing and you can start stitching sooner, my favorite part. I still have a lot of stitching to do, many details to add.</span></div>

I continued working on the same project as last month, but I have now completed all the border blocks and in about an hour I'll have 33 of the 48 Log Cabin Blocks needed for the center of the quilt. I haven't started on the corner pieces yet, but there's only FOUR corners right?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have received two wonderful minis. The first one is from Terry at QUILTY-TF (<a href="http://quilty-tf.blogspot.com.au/">click here</a>). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Isn't it pretty?! The colors are so bright and cheery! After our long winter here it really brightens things up. Look at the detail - the pretty flowers have dragonflies on them. Thank you Terry for the mini and all the goodies! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This was an Easter mini swap Hosted by Cheryll at Gone Stitchin' (<a href="http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com.au/">click here</a>). Thank you Cheryl for another great swap.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I love tulips, they're my favorite Spring flower. Right now, this beautifully pieced tulip is the only one around. Most of the snow is gone, but we haven't been warm enough for the flowers to come up. Usually by now the Spring flowers are blooming, adding color to the dreary landscape. I love the pink rick rack around the mini and the cute little stitched bee. Thank you also for the goodies...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I worked on paper piecing Log Cabin Blocks using a pattern by Cindi Edgerton. I have a lot of Kansas Troubles scraps and kits never completed or even made so I thought this would be a good time to use my stash (and a few lights from a friend).</span><br />

My garden's blooms don't like all the cold, windy and snowy weather we've been having so I've made a few more stepping stones again this week. I was hoping to add a few flowers to the garden but I ended up working a few extra hours today.............<br />
<br />
Just to add a little color to my post today, here's a picture of what I mailed my Santa Sack partner. Debbieann didn't have a blog and I forgot to post this in December. A Friend stitched the tote for me but I made all the rest, thanks Jinnie!<br />
