What have you been up to lately?? The days are flying by here like crazy! I was busy getting ready for a big craft show / flea market about an hour away - It was this past weekend and I did great -- here are some of the chairs I made, all roadside treasures converted to nice planter chairs! So nice to be green and enjoy it.
This was my favorite and it sold first, love the arms on this old chair.
This one I still have but I have a friend who has a birthday soon, so this might head her way :)
I love blue and this one was a fun one with the red flowers, it also found a great home. I sold a few more and came home with a couple -- I have lots of ideas for the fall show and I have already found a few roadside treasures for that!
I did get to make one purchase it is a twin size hand pieced grandmothers flower garden quilt top -- with all 30's prints - original 30's prints -- it was marked $40 - it was half price in her booth Sunday afternoon and I offered $15 and it came home with me!!! Not sure what I am going to do with it, but I LOVE IT! Nice to think about the lady who sat there and stitched this all by hand --
And while I was at the show Sunday morning I finished a UFO!! I think this is number 8 for the year - my goal is 1 - 2 a month - so I am a little behind but I have 2 quilts at my friend the long armer, and they should be back in a week or 2 -- so then I will be back on track - I love this one, it was a mystery quilt from the LQS that I made about 2 years ago - not an oldy but still a goodie!
Well that is about all -- Poochie has been diagnosed with allergies and has goopy eyes still and is now on predisone - I sure hope she feels better soon!
I will talk you soon!
Happy Stitches!
