Applique Thursday

I was so busy finishing that January UFO that I only got a little bit more done on my 3rd Jubilee Album block.  My problem at this point is that the pattern calls for red flowers at the two stems left.  However, my botanical sense tells me it is not likely that would occur.  The only plant I can think that has various colored blooms on the same plant is the one commonly called yesterday, today and tomorrow.

I'll keep mulling it over - this isn't a true to life vase anyway -lol.

Would love to see your eye candy - done, in process or dreamed - use the blue button below to add your link.

WIP Wednesday barely

Here is the bare bones beginning of a couple of caring blocks I will make today as my work in progress.  At least the fabric is cut.  Now to find a white to go with it:

And last night at the lqg, I had a lovely surprise.  My friend, Deanna, gave me a darling Valentine heart.  I love it, Deanna.  Thank you!

I'm linking to Esther's WIP Wednesday.  You'll find the button on my sidebar.  Enjoy!

All that's left is Binding!

I'm finally to the point where all I have to do is the binding and my first UFO for the year will be done!

This has taken a lot longer than I expected because I wanted to have a pattern on both sides of the quilt.  And then I just couldn't get myself to quilt on so many of these winter days  - instead I do blocks, start a new ufo, read - sigh.  It's good to have a goal and I wanted this done for my lqg meeting which is tomorrow.

I'm linking to Fabric Tuesday by Quilt Story and Linky Party at Quilt by the River.  Go see all the other fabric stories out there (buttons in sidebar).  Now off to do that binding!
