I finished my second kite quilt. I was going to take a picture but when I turned it on it had a black screen. The same problem that was wrong with it last time. So I have to send it off again.
I just finished the first of two kite wall hangings. I'm going to put them on the doors when this spring. It was a lot of fun to make. One of the strips of fabric is turned upside down. Can you tell which one it is?
My Mom was once again nice enough to hold it so I could snap the picture.
The pattern is Kite Strings Wall Hanging out of the February/March 2008 issue of "Quilt" magazine. There web site is http://www.quiltmag.com/
I finally finished my Scrappy Nine-Patch quilt. It's a free pattern Sue Stevens at Sew Sue's. I didn't have any trouble make it. It was a lot of fun. I wanted to hang down on my bed to I made it wider it's a square. I'm going to have it machine quilted.
My Mom is nice enough to hold it up. I couldn't get a good picture of it laying on the bed.
Edited to add I finished this a couple of days ago.
My favorite uncle is have surgery today to replace a heart valve. Please keep him in your prayers. He's a wonder guy.

Hello,
I haven't posted for a while. I've been busy. I got my camera back and it works. I've been cutting fabric. So hopefully I'll have more time to sew and do other things that I want to do. I think I need to make a list of everything I do and when I do it to see where the day goes.
Later!
Happy New Year!!! I hope 2008 is better than 2007. So far it looks good. I made a quilt block. I had to send my camera off to be fixed (luckly it's still under warrenty) so I can't take a picture. When I get it back I'll be posting pictures of my quilts and works in progress.
