Under Construction

 
Don't you just LOVE the hammer??? 
 
Working on adding tabs to the blog....yep, finally had a couple of request to add the tabs to have a fast place to get the information.  This will be better for the "other" blog, you know the one that has all of the quilt pictures, but for this one I'm just going to keep it light. 
 
BUT!!
 
I can't figure how to get a direct link from the tab?  Clear as mud?  Well, I'm going to keep working on it and see if I can get it figured out.  In the mean time head on over to the other blog and let me know what you think.
 
Okay, that's it for now, I've got an extra special little project that I'm working on.  Can't wait to share the details.
 
thanks for checking on me,

Quilts, traveling stash, critters and frames?..

hahaha!!  We all know that blogging can be a chore!!!  What to write, how much to
write and if you are on a "schedule" the deadline is always there.  Last week I got off
easy with the stash box, no problem...a few pictures a few words and it's all good! 
 BUT NOW!! I'm paying the price!  I've got a couple of weeks worth of pictures to
sort and post.  So on with the show!!
 
Here's a few (this kept me busy for a while....) from Marie in FL.  These are
comfort quilts for a local orphanage in her area.  They were a real pleasure to
work with, loved all of the bright colors and fun prints. 








Another quilt from Florida came my way via Katie.  It was her first time having
a quilt machine quilted.  Cute little quilt, here's what it looked like....

 
Ever seen a porcupine up close?? They are sooo cute!!  This little guy is sitting at
the edge of the house munching on wild raspberries.  And did you know
porcupines waddle??  So stinkin' cute!!!!
 
 
Traveling stash is headed to .....



don't you just LOVE the address????
 
If your name is Brandy, Jeannie or Kitty and Sammy your quilts are headed home.  I finished 2 for Brandy, one each for Jeannie and Kitty along with a rush for
Janet and a couple of quilts for Rosie.  Rosie is a new blogger,
check her out at  RMB Quilts and Needleworks.
 
Okay one more thing before I go....have ya heard about the U R Priceless Blog Hop? 
It's all about little coin purses.  I'm LOVIN' it!!!   Check out the fun little frames
at Kelly's I Have a Notion!!  Which one do you like best?  I'm thinkin' I might have
to have a few, and perhaps a giveaway with these little gems.
 
Okay, that's enough!!  I've got quilts to work on, like crazy!!!  Have a super week,
don't forget to let me know which of the cute little frames you are
lovin' from Kelly.
 
As always more pictures of the great quilts can be seen at my other blog,
 
 
Thanks for checking on me,
hugs,
joanne
