I was on a roll last week... finishing off some projects. It felt so good to catch up a bit. We drove to Saskatchewan this past Victoria Day long weekend, and I took the quilts with me so I could finish up the binding. I ran out of black thread about 20" before finishing the black binding quilt, but I quickly finished that one up once we arrived home.

| Dragonflies Baby Quilt 35" x 42" |
 |
| Stained Window Quilt 43" x 54" |
 |
| I did a simple meander free motion stitch all over the quilt. |

| The backing for the Stained Window Quilt. I love these colours. |

| Block #8 for Freebie 15 "The Reef" 12" x 12" |
 |
| Freebie 15's Block 8 Companion "The Pier" The original pattern of "the pier" had tiny (and I mean TINY) little posts & rails along the edges of the pier... and I just wasn't into such meticulous work... so I ventured away & did my own version of the pier - which, in my opinion, looks more like a boardwalk, but I like it. |
I'm still working on my Mystery Quilt... Clue #5 tomorrow... Yippee!!
Next on the list:
- finish off the Birdie Quilt
- re-do the Fat Quarters Stars Quilt top (I took the quilt top apart because I couldn't stand the sashing on it)
- add binding to the Layer Cake Quilt which I finished last year, fixed last month, and is now off to my friend Dalene's for some quilting (it's a double or queen size quilt - a bit large for me to quilt)
I will be taking things easy in the next while as I will be starting a new job and June will be pretty much devoted to learning & new beginnings!
