2nd Granddaughter Arrived

Welcome Charlotte Marie Hinton to this world- 9 lbs 3 oz - 20 inches long. 

She arrived at 5:20 p.m. August 1st, 2015. 

                    

Family is doing great.  

While I was waiting for Charlotte to arrive my parents come up and we went to the fair and out to dinner, (to celebrate my birthday which is on the 5th).  When I got home I didn't want to just sit and wait for Charlotte to arrive so I went to my sewing room and did some sewing. I did 35 blocks for a Row by Row Experience row.  From Sager Creek Quilts in Siloam Springs, AR. The row is called Storm at Sea. I would normally count each row as one block, but this one I had to actually do each block separate and then put it all together.

I said that I was going to be better this month with doing my blocks.  Good start so far. lol.

Happy Sewing!!!

February 350 Blocks Report

This month had a lot of ups and downs. To start the month out we had 3 deaths in one week.

My husbands uncle passed away on a Saturday morning. 

 My loving grandmother passed Saturday afternoon, then her brother passed on Monday. 

Here is a great picture of my grandmother when she graduated from high school..

 

 On the up side, I am going to a grandma again in July..  Yes my daughter is going to have another girl. I am so excited for them, they are still in South Korea, but hope to be back in the states by then.

 

So with everything going on this month, I only did one block, which was actually a big block for the  Skill Builder BOM 2015 Technicolor Galaxy quilt.

My plan for March is to do some catch up. Which I really need too, I only have 17 blocks for the year.

With all the snow today I'm going to lock my self in my sewing room and start on my March goal.

 

Stay safe with all the weather out there!

 

Happy Sewing!!!

350 Block Report - October and November

This is going to be a short post tonight..  October and November I didn't do any blocks. Not saying I didn't quilt,  cause I did.
October my daughter and granddaughter came and visited.

They are back in South Korea now.  I miss them so much.  But it was great to see them.

I'll show some of my quilting that I have done, I put it in black in white cause I can't show it until after Christmas. 

Here is a picture of the back of the other quilt that I completed in November.

Didn't realize how many white strings that I still had on the back of the quilt.  It went into the wash and the strings are all gone now.

After Christmas I will show the front of all the quilts that I completed.

Happy Quilting!!!
