Would you look at that?

Ove 39,000 views on my blog!  Who'd have thought?  :)  Again, a special thank you to all who come by for a visit.  I know it's not always possible to leave comments....I'm notorious for looking at a bazillion blogs and barely leaving any comments.  However, I do appreciate everyone's thoughts and kind words on my pieces.

And yes, I have been busy (again). Lots of applique happening 'round here! :)) Here's a peek at my Baltimore Bunnies all gathered together in one place finally. I still have all the swags, bunnies and flowers to do for the oute borders.

My Friends for Christmas got a bit of attention this past week, too.  I finally finished the four spindly-leggd reindeer block (of which you can barely see three).  One more to go...the sleigh with a vine of holly leaves and a bag full of presents!  I did add the buttons to the "Charlie Brown" Christmas tree (not called for in the original pattern, but I thought it looked a bit 'naked'.)

Block 6

Yeah!  This is the last block for my Baltimore Bunnies quilt..... But...there are still 10 swags and fifteen flowers to put onto the outer borders. :)  Teeny, weeny birdies on this one.

Thanks for stopping by! ;)

Busy, busy, busy

That's why there haven't been many posts lately.  I finally finished all the little round snowflakes (which  barely show up in this picture) and the outer border for my Robyn Pandolph "Winter's Dance" reindeer....I know it is wrinkly.  I had to lay it all out on the table for now.  The jingle bells and all those red buttons are not attached yet.  They really do add a lot to the overall look, so I wanted to get a picture of them all in place.  They will be permanently attached once the quilting is all finished.

There are also a few more stars in the lower right-hand corner.  I did not add the final outer cream floral border on this one.  I liked it with the brown print and it was getting way too big for a simple wall hanging.

And...I completed two more of my Baltimore Bunny blocks.  One left to go!  I also started work on the piecing of the borders for this one.  No pictures just yet...I want to finish the last block first!

And...I am working on the fourth block from Tiny Town.

And (last one, I promise)  I received two more letters for Merry Christmas to All...Two R's, but assembled completely different.  I have those traced and ready for their embroidery.Whew!  See?  I told you I was busy! ;)

**  Missie - Just so you know...I did order this kit from Shabby Fabrics which included all the buttons and jingle bells.  I also replaced all the white fabric stars with wool felt in both pink and white. **

Rough Layout

A rough layout to see if I liked the fabrics I had chosen for the two inner borders on my Baltimore Bunnies.   So far, so good!  Still have two more blocks to complete, plus all the swags, bunnies and flowers on the cream colored outer borders. 

Lovin' these bunnies!

My third bunny - inside the cabbage or lettuce (I'm not sure which).  I love the little radishes on this one.


Thanks for stopping by! :o))

More Bunnies

You know what they say about those bunnies when they get together.....;)   My second block for the Baltimore Bunnies quilt.  I am really enjoying working on these blocks.  The next one will only have one little bunny. :^}

Baltimore Bunnies

When I first saw this pattern, it was the one that got my heart racing and thinking...."It's time to start quilting again," (after a very long hiatus).  It is Baltimore Bunnies by Anne Sutton of Bunny Hill Designs.  I have always liked the Baltimore Album quilts, but would never have considered making one.  However, when I saw Anne's vesion with the little bunnies...well...it was love at first sight.  But I did not start this one right away.  It was quite intimidating to think about all those little applique leaves, the skinny, skinny bias binding for the stems and the tiny, pieces involved in completing this quilt.  Now with a few pieces of applique "under my belt", so to speak...I started it.  Here is my first block on my Baltimore Bunnies:


I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the birthday wishes.  Another year!  They sure are flying by so fast now. :))
