Another of the blocks out of the UFO tub. The pink fabric is scraps left over when I made my bridesmaids gowns for my wedding. David and I will be married for 44 years this summer. The gray is from an outfit I had when Timothy was a baby, I never got back into it after John was born. I got a huge length of yardage at a thrift shop, I also made curtains for my neighbors kitchen cupboards out of it. I didn't mind matching her cupboard fronts, the cupboards and I never went anywhere together!
I finished quilting the Turtles quilt this morning, I ran out of thread and had to use a spool of cheap thread for the last four blocks, I didn't like doing it but I had it on hand and it was the right color. It took me twice as long to do those blocks as it did a whole row with good thread, due to breakage so I didn't get started on the binding. I will do that tomorrow.
These are the doll clothes I just finished. I don't seem to have a doll they fit, unless she is up in the attic. They are too big for a Barbie doll and too small for Stella. I know there are dolls in the cedar chest up in the attic, but it's too cold up there to go look and my family don't like me to go up there due to the stairs and the uneven floor. When the rest of the basement is finished I will be able to have my cedar chest back down here. That will be nice. The pictures don't show to advantage with the doll not in them.
The boys are home, nice, time to go up and say hello.
