One Whole Month Down....

 January is about to bite the dust....ALREADY!

The studio has not seen much action this month....
My nephew, Wilbur*, asked me to repair a pillow  that had originally belonged to my mom (his g-ma).
His dog chewed a couple of holes in it.  I tried to find an old chenille bathrobe to cut up for repairs...that didn't work. 
So, instead of trying to match the flowers, I just went with repairing as best I could.

The only other thing I accomplished in the studio this month was making a pillow for Kathy's Mom using one of the blocks in the gifted bundle.  HERE .  After the First Saturday Needle Group took what they wanted, I did take the remaining items to the National Quilt Museum for their sale.

I will admit, I cheated and changed my UFO list...added these two items as #3, January's number, which was originally
Auntie Nyla's Row-By-Row wall hanging....just so I could mark them off!  Feels so good!  Whatever gets you down the road, eh?

If you are participating in the UFO Challenge, February's number is #6.

My #6 is a companion quilt to one that I made for my sister, Renee in 2021.  So, it's not TOO old.
July 4, 2021 I had traveled to Vegas for a quilting weekend with my niece, Desiree. HERE
That's when I started this quilt using a  layer cake, "Violet Hill."



This will be a fun one to finish up....the First Saturday group is meeting this next week-end for a Quilt 'Til You Wilt...
perfect timing!  It's not too late to join the UFO Challenge!  HERE

Well, folks...that's all the news that is fit to print!

*Yes, I am "Charlotte" and my nephew is "Wilbur" and he does like pigs. 
I made him a "Piggy Quilt" for Christmas 2015  HERE
