Today
Another day
Let's runaway
to the mountains or the plains
Walk in the sun
learn to run
toward the end
around the bend

These photos are of two RR quilts.....the first is finished but the cowgirls was never returned to me...It was sent to a quilter on the Dear Jane list in 2005..after several attempts to retrieve it...I'm calling it lost...this does not mean however that I will never attempt a RR quilt I have a square ready now if anyone is interested in adding a 3 or 4 inch border...usually there are about 4 participatants..each starts by making their own center square and then they trust the next robin to add a round suitable to the center...I've worked on several that turned out quite nicely....

Quilt made from childs drawings

This is a quilt my daughter & I made for my granddaughter Fiona... My daughter embroidered Fiona's drawings.... Then quilt friends from the CyberBees made star quilt blocks in similar colors.... Next I put the whole thing together... Hope you like it!

What fun this was...using a drawing of a shadow done by daughter Heather I created this baby quilt...soon I will post the cake that Heather made to match...

Well I guess I pulled it off...my husband's retirement party

Now to return to my main reasons for living...LOL

So far retirement is very dull so back to sewing...frog quilt next...I began the spring with 3 frogs in my tiny pond and now I can see the tadpoles grow by the day....the barley straw was a great trick...now I can see to the bottom...

This guy has been my companion for over 14 years..he has soaked up a lot of tears.... sat beside me when I was so sick....just been my overall cat friend....

We Cyberbees traded 12"blocks and this is how mine made up......is quilted with feather cicles in the plain blocks and feathers on the borders.....now I just need to sit long enough to bind it...Hugs Tam
