Primitive Quilt Magazine Winner

Here were some more blocks I made while retreating last week. 

 Fun little birds in the air blocks.

 Put with the blocks I had made before the retreat. I've got a nice little stack.

Close up of the beautiful fabric.

I like the fabric and the pattern but it's so out of my normal that I'm not loving it together.

I loved hearing of all your blessings. Thanks for signing up to win the magazine. I would encourage you to let the magazine know you like my design.

  Janie is the winner of the drawing!

Send me your mailing address and I'll drop it in the mail. Congratulations! 

Happy Wednesday!

Collections

I wonder if my kids will say what I'm saying about my collections!

Before George got so sick my siblings and I had decided to sell off what's inside my mom's storage unit. We've been paying on it for 5 years now and it's time to let it go.

One main collection was Dragonware. Some of it is so beautiful, but still there is too much! Many tea cups have the lithograph Geisha girl in the bottom.

The fun has began and the selling starts with the roosters in the morning. Wish us luck!

Happy weekend.

Whatnot Wednesday

I don't have anything quilty to show you today so I thought I'd show you a silly collection I have.
It started innocently with this guy who used to be my moms. 

The collection has expanded a bit. My recent favorite is the marionette on the right which my sister brought back from Italy.

Here's a bit more. I noticed after I downloaded the photos that I need to dust! Oops! maybe I'll hire my niece when she is home on spring break to come and help. Cleaning is always more fun when your not doing it by yourself.

Randy of Barrister's Block and I are working on a project together for our blogs!! We will do a medallion sewalong and  I hope you'll join in on the fun when we are ready.

Marian of Dream Weaver bought one of my little AAQI quilts recently and I emailed her a photo of my grandfather to go along with it. I hope you'll check it out.

Have a wonderful rest of the week!
