Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Sweet Girl, a Chicken and a Zebra. So I have this sweet girl. She also has a chicken that goes with her almost everywhere. Well last week on Friday, Grandpa had a zebra sent to her by Cassie from You Go Girl Designs. Isn't this zebra just adorable? Her name is Zinny and Rachael adores her, I think as must as Chicken Doodle. Thank you Dad and Cassie for the wonderful surprise you gave to Rachael. Later I will post the surprise that I got. Monday, March 30, 2009. Today is my Sweeti...

Mushyhed's Sweatshop: April 2009
http://mushyhedssweatshop.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 28, 2009. I've decided to join Rachael. In the nine-patch madness. I made these while watching American Idol. And these during Dancing with the Stars. And these during Law and Order- SVU. And these during Letterman. I strip pieced these. I didn't have it in me to cut a bunch of 2.5" squares. I'll go through my scraps and do that another day. I'm counting on Anina. In my defense, I rarely just "watch" tv. I'm usually sewing, or surfing the net or folding laundry along with my tv. It's a nec...

Monday, June 29, 2009. Scrappy 9 quilt top. My scrappy nine patch is done and I love it! A close up of the quilt top. Some of my favorite blocks. MUST STOP MAKING QUILT TOPS AND START COMPLETING PROJECTS! Sunday, June 28, 2009. I have been a block making fool this weekend. First up is a block I made for Barbara. Group She has 9 patches from her LQG. But didn't have enough of the orange fabric for the strips I needed. Six months ago, I would have totally panicked. Is working on finishing her PTQB. I also ...

Mushyhed's Sweatshop: July 2009
http://mushyhedssweatshop.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 20, 2009. Boxed in is quilted! I really like the quilting on this. I just used my walking foot and quilted 1/4" to the side of each seam. What's exciting is that my straight quilting skills have improved. It's almost all straight this time :0)! The middle piece for the back was a test piece I initially used when I was trying to figure out the sizes for the blocks and it was a tad too big. I used to as a starting off point and added more Kona. White and AB goodness until I got this:. This was...

Mushyhed's Sweatshop: Dancy's doll quilt
http://mushyhedssweatshop.blogspot.com/2009/07/dancys-doll-quilt.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. Sends me random "just because" packages because she's all kinds of awesome. When she heard I was making a Heather Ross sampler quilt, she sent me HR FQs. That she found at Joannes to add to my collection. I've not met Stephanie in real life, yet her daughter, Dancy. Knows my name. She has claimed the purse I made Stephanie as her own and carries her" babies" in it. I'm a sucker for cute little ones so I decided to make a doll quilt for Dancy. Speaking of generous bloggy. I love tha...

Sunday, March 29, 2009. Don's 50th bday quilt. I was only able to frame 8 of her pictures with the hankerchief and for the rest, I used a Kona beige-ish color (I forgot what it was called). 4 of the pictures were black and white so I group them in the middle. Here's a close up of a block with the hankerchief and black medallion border. The finished quilt measured 69" square. I wasn't able to go to Don's bday party but MaryCarol said that Don loved the quilt. Yay! Saturday, March 28, 2009. Refer to each a...

Mushyhed's Sweatshop: Out of control...
http://mushyhedssweatshop.blogspot.com/2009/07/out-of-control.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2009. This stack of quilt tops is waiting for backing, quilting and binding. And yet I keep starting new projects. I'm pretty sure there are others around here but not only am I too lazy to quilt, I'm also too lazy to look for missing quilt tops. I've got a new quilt I'm planning with all the great Heather Ross fabrics that I've received through my swaps. I'm trying to be good and not start working on it but then I have this one. Sending me HR scraps and this one. Sending me HR FQs.
