Monday, October 23, 2006. Crazy Quilt Class Block. I'm not overly happy with this block but I am going to use this as the block to learn with for my Crazy Quilting online class. I am hoping that I can balance it all out with the embellishments I use. Hope to get to work on my machine tomorrow for that letter pillow for my friend. She is coming to visit a few days after I get back from Sweden! Posted by Cathi at 12:19 AM. Friday, October 20, 2006. A Day in the Life: A "Lazy" Friday. I think I will update ...

Crazed Quilter: Moving Ahead
http://crazedquilter.blogspot.com/2007/03/moving-ahead.html
Sunday, March 25, 2007. I can't believe that I've finally started quilting on my Dear Jane. I've also got the small DJ wallhanging to work on in the living room if I feel like it. I will be a slow learner with the rocking stitch, but find I'm very fast with the stab stitch.with all the seams in the DJ, stab stitch is a good thing to use! Here are two blocks the first from my DJ and the second from the wallhanging. Has also been obsessed lately with the ripple crochet blanket. Posted by Cathi at 7:12 PM.

Thursday, May 17, 2007. I Swear They Breed in There! That is my basket of smaller Dear Jane scraps and muslin scraps. See those blocks? I got 37 8 inch blocks from that basket and it is still FULL!

See, bet you guys thought I forgot how to quilt! Posted by Cathi at 12:21 AM. The blocks look great! Have a great visit! The blocks...
