Penny's UM Scarf

Here is my new University of Miami scarf that my little sister knitted for me. Some of us quilt and some of us knit today. She knows that I love all the Florida teams. I have mentioned to her that I am waiting for the matching sweater.

Mom's Blue Ribbon

Here is mom's Rosebud Quilt, with the pieced fencing borders, that I love so much. She entered this quilt in the 2009 Titusville Quilt Show. The show was a great success. I had the privilege of attending this wonderful event. All the quilts were just beautiful!

Here is a close-up of that Blue Ribbon. I am so very proud of you, Mom!

Valentine's Day Roses

I do love flowers. These are three of the seven dozen of roses that came to the house as gifts for loved ones. I had to take some photos. It was like a small florist in the dining room for a day.

Here is a close-up of one of the dozen of roses. Their buds arrived nice and tight and the daisies and greenery were just perfect. I wish you could smell these roses.

Here are new photos of the birds. You can't be taken photos of the roses without taking their picture as well. Their chatter totally distracts you from whatever you are trying to do.

Check out these dozen of varigated roses. They arrived from a different florist. They were very special roses.

Here is a close-up of the varigated roses. These roses were so unique. They were red with red streaks. They almost had a velvet look to them.

New Quilted Purse from E-bay

Here is my new quilted purse that I purchased off of e-bay. I love the pink and green floral print. This is such a cute purse! I can't wait to use it.

Mom's Quilted Zipper Bag

Here is the quilted zipper bag that I made for my mom. I asked her to send me a fat quarter of her choice and I selected a coordinating fat quarter out of my stash to use as the lining. I love her flowers and she is going to love the quilting. I can't wait to give this bag to her.

Quilted Purses from E-bay

Here are the five new quilted purses that I purchased off of e-bay a while back and never removed the tags and used. I needed some thank you gifts for some family members and these seemed just perfect. At first, everyone thought that I made them. Today, they know where they came from. I sure love e-bay!

Quilted Zipper Bag

Here is the quilted zipper bag that I made in my class for my new sewing machine. The quilting was done by lengthening the squiggly stitch and stitching diagonals with the seam guide attachment. We praticed with out new zipper foot and put a white zipper in the bag. After finishing our bags, we received ribbons for the zipper pull-tab with the store's name on it. My favorite quilt store is Quilter's Choice in Jupiter, FL. The bag will carry my blow dryer when I travel. I love it!
