| My weekly thread with 4 photos lol image.jpg It's officially Sunday, so I decided to let y'all in on what I've been slaving away at. First is a chevron quilt for a Navy friend of my daughters. He picked the colors and the pattern. It will be quilted with ships wheels and anchors sometime this week.

| Next is a really cute little monkey quilt and I've made matching burp rags, a matching receiving blanket and a matching diaper bag, all embroidered with baby's name. (Monkey now has a face and has been quilted, but I didn't get a picture before I put him in the washing machine)

| And last but not least, my daughter has finished the top for her boyfriends quilt. We are going tomorrow to pick out a backing fabric so that she can get it quilted and gave to him next weekend when he comes to visit. image.jpg So, there you have it folksies. This is really and truly how I spend my days, just sewing away, enjoying every minute of it. I love the freedom and creativity!!

The diaper bag I made is from someone else's tutorial and I just made my own based off their idea. It's a little sloppy in a couple spots but I'm happy with it. And now I know how to improve things.

| All the items are beautiful. I am particularly interested in the chevron quilt as my DH and I are both Nave veterans. I'd love to see a photo when it's quilted and has all the little extras on it. Beautiful work. I don't quilt as I hate math! LOL I've done a quilted table runner but that was for a class I took. It just seems too complicated for me. LOL You definitely have a gift for quilting and my hats off to you!!

| Me too. I'm hoping to get it done tomorrow or Tuesday, but I have a few dr appointments to squeeze in.

| You amaze me Michele. How you manage to get so much done is beyond me...and all of your work is lovely. That monkey set is precious!! If I lived up that way I would be torturing you for lessons!
