This is my January  quilt from Will Quilt for Chocolates UFO challenge from the HGTV message board.  This picture was taken before I finished the binding and it still has binding clips on it.  I finished it by the dead line day for the month of January.  That is why I started the second month early so I would not be so stressed out working on these.

IT REALLY FEELS GOOD TO “FINISH” A PROJECT!!!!!!!!!

This is my Merry Merry snowman quilt that I started last year with Quiltaholic as a sew along.  This pattern is a Bunny Hill design that several of us from the HGTV message board did together.  Needless to say, I fell behind. 

My new years plan is to finish some of these UFO’s before I start anything new.  I have a big problem with focusing so we shall see how that works out for me.

This is my treadle machine.  My aunt lived about 5 miles from the beach in Hollywood Florida and when I got this machine it was really gummy.  I started taking it apart and was going to clean it really good but realized it was over my head.  This afternoon I carried this machine to a man in Memphis for him to refurbish the machine, cabinet and legs.  I guees the salt water must have ruined the finish on it because someone had painted the legs and the cabinet red.  It was in really bad shape.  I am hoping my new friend in Memphis can work miracles and bring her back to life.

This is my Feb challenge from Will Quilt for Chocolate's 1 UFO per month challenge from the HGTV message board.
This quilt top was found at an estate sale a couple of year ago.  It is done in two colors of red thread.
I have not idea who cross stitched it but I fell in love with it the first time I ever saw it.  It is a King size quilt and I know it would take me several years to hand quilt it.  I can not free motion on my machine.......well I could but it would take years of practice because I can not walk and chew bubble gum at the same time so I know it would take YEARS of practice for me. 

This top was pieced in 5 panels.  I have taken it apart down to three panels.  I have one panel already sandwiched and quilted on my Bernina.  I am going to sandwich another section tomorrow after I get another quilt in my quilt frame.  While that quilt is quilting I will sandwich the second section of this one. 

I have until Feb 28th to get it done.  I need to get it done a little early and start working on one of the quilts that will come later in the challenge.  Because one of my quilts for this challenge is a hand quilted quilt. 
I need to get it quilted so I can get paid for it so I can spend the money on getting my Aunt Gladys' 1922 singer treadle machine refurbished.

This is Feb challenge blocks for the snowmen.  Each month we are supposed to embroider two blocks and make 2 of the log cabin type blocks.  I made all 15 of my blocks at one time.  When I fetched this file from my pictures it was right side up.  I have no idea why it turns it sideways when it post here.

I am going to try this again.  I am having the hardest time posting pictures.

This is a picture of January’s part of my “I Believe in Snowmen” quilt challenge hosted by My friend Quiltaholic on the HGTV message board.

I have learned how to send pictures from my phone to my computer.  Hey don't laugh, that was a big deal for someone as computer illiterate as I am.   Now I am having trouble loading pictures.  I go to my files and choose the picture but when I try to add it there is a little loading circle that comes up and it never goes away. 


I promise I have some pictures for this blog!!!!
