Slow Sunday Stitching

 It's been a busy couple of weeks.  My granddaughter Klara's BD was October 29th, but her BD party was November 4th.  It was a scavenger hunt at a local mall.  There were two pages of items they needed to take pictures of.   My daughter purchased 20 T-shirts, and I cut out 20 motifs on my Cricut.  This was Klara's.  The rest of them had the I'm ten removed.


My laptop is having a hard time transferring pics from my Iphone tonight.  

My pistache tree is showing beautiful fall colors.  


My pomegranate tree has fruit that is just about ripe I think.  


This past week I have worked a bit on my Storm at Sea blocks for my lighthouse quilt.  I still need to cut out more pieces with the Accuquilt die.  


I recently visited a dear friend who is 87 and not doing so well.  I took her this quilt to keep her warm.  I also took her a couple of homemade soups for nourishment.  

 

This week I also completed my One Monthly Goal, quilting this quilt.  I mailed it off to a good friend of mine that has been having some health issues and forgot to take a picture.  I am hoping when she receives it, she can get a picture taken with it, before I have to report in for One Monthly Goal.  This was the Scrap Dance Quadrille mystery by Carole @From My Carolina Home.  



Saturday I attended the Pioneer Quilt Guild's Quilt show and saw some lovely quilts.  I tend to favor the ones with embroidery and applique, my favorite things, but these are some of quilts displayed.













What I will be working on for Slow Sunday Stitching is one of my projects for the Turkey Trot Blog Hop which starts next week.  I will be sewing down the binding.  Head on over to Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching and see what everyone is working on.  



Thanks for stopping by.

One Monthly Goal, November

 

It's time to post November's One Monthly Goal at Stories From the Sewing Room.  Many thanks to Anne-Marie for this monthly motivation.

I didn't make last month's monthly goal which was to make PJs and Sloth Wall hanging for my granddaughter's BD.  I got the PJs and top done, but when I went to embroider the sloth appliques down with my embroidery machine, it got stuck on a screen and wouldn't come out of it and needed to go into the shop.

For November, my goal is to quilt Scrap Dance Quadrille, and bind it,  This was one of Carole's @From My Carolina Home mystery quilts from earlier this year.  The top is on my longarm, and I had thread delivered today, so it's ready to go.  I have a friend who hasn't been doing well, and I would like to send it to her.  



I will be linking up @Stories From the Sewing Room.  

Thanks for stopping by!
