River's Edge UFO Letter "A"
and the same River's Edge Quarterly Project W1,
Peggy's Memory Bears.
APQ's: March number is 6.
My number 6 is an easy one....Label older quilts....quilts I made early on and never labeled.
After digging them out, I realized there weren't as many as I thought. Two of them are quilts I made "back in the day" when
I did not even know HOW to quilt.... a little embarrassing to me now, but they still deserve a label.

This one is only a couple years in the queue.
As UFOs go, not too bad.
Purchased from a wonderful quilt shop in Omaha,
Country Sampler.
The thought was to make this for one of my great nieces, JayCee.
She grew up so fast and is now a young woman. I'm not sure if she'll like it. I will see her when I'm in Vegas this summer. (See Below) I'll make it a point to spent time with her and get to know her better, and what she likes.
Most of the work is done....It just needs to be assembled.
This month's Machine Spotlight is Baby Doll.

Baby Doll was in impulse buy. A Janome Harmony 4052.
Someone on the Next Door app was selling her and I thought it would be a good little machine for my great niece, Savannah. HERE
Savannah was showing an interest in sewing at that time.
That didn't happen, so then I thought I'd keep her as a backup machine. That was two years ago....have only fired her up once. Obviously I don't really need a back up machine.
This summer I will be driving from my 'ol Kentucky home to California for my grandson's H.S. graduation...with a stop off in Vegas to spend time with The Quilting Niece, her siblings and their mom....Baby Doll is going to finally find a new home either with Miss Savannah,
or Miss JayCee ?? (See Above) Because, honestly, do I REALLY need FIVE sewing machines? (The answer is "no.")
But, in the meantime....let's see how she performs.
March is off to a promising start!
