The sewing has begun - WOOHOO

Two friends, Claire and Anne, arrived here at the cabin in Oregon yesterday.  Claire is trying to outdo all of us, as always, with a top nearly completed.  It's really cute.  She's so great at coming up with ideas for simple quilts.  She is putting a skinny pink border and then adding a bright floral.  I"ll show you that later.



As for me, I'm plugging along, doing small things that might someday make a quilt!  I caught up on the triangle gatherings.  YEAH!




I picked these fabrics up last week at Quilt Works.  The "light" is a Tula Pink fabric I think I have already bought but it is just so fun!

Then I also caught up on another block of the week project I signed up for.  We are on week 3 so I'm right on track, except I haven't made the double nine-patch blocks yet.







Last night's sunset was spectacular since there were clouds in the sky.  Lori (humblequilts) also posted some sunset pictures from her house in Madras, which is about 70 miles north of us.  We weren't even together last night (although we will be tonight...YEAH!!). But both posted pictures.  The large mountain is Mt Bachelor, which is still pretty much covered in snow!

More pictures will follow, no doubt, of everyone's progress.  Such fun to see what others are working on, don't you think?  Very inspirational!
