Happy Birthday Greg............

 I bought this kit at the Hill City Mercantile quilt shop in Hill City last Sept.It is Tatanka by JoAnn Hoffman  A couple of weeks ago I decided to try and get it done for Greg's birthday which is tomorrow so I did it!!! So it's on the brown wall in the first pic even tho it doesn't look brown it is.

 I tried it on a couple of walls and we decided the orange  wall wasn't the one for it.

 We might try it on the bricks of the fireplace too.

 It was alot of tracing on to lite weight fusible and stitching with invisible thread.

 This is the backing I had 2 pieces of this that's why the gap in the middle:)

 My design floor in the basement! I didn't have to worry about Greg seeing it he rarely goes down there. See the people in the tepee?

 Lots of quilting.

This is another one of her patterns I would like to make someday.
It is Sun Dance Eagle Feather. Now that I have the 42 inch circle cut out of freezer paper I am ready to do another:) My next project is patching some blue jeans When Jared saw what I had been working on he said "This is why you haven't patched my jeans"  yup:).......JMF

What I have been sewing...............

 This summer I have been branching out into different styles of quilts. I've tried some modern quilt patterns and it has been fun.

 This is the back of the black and pink. I got the map fabric on equilter.

 On sale:)

 Simple but fun!

 Modern cowboys:)

 I love that piece on the back. I think I got that on equilter too. I have had it awhile and finally it found it's home.

 A simple but fun quilt.

 Bookmarks.

 These 2 are made from 4 bandannas I found this on pinterest but no instructions, figured it out tho.

 Tooties.

 The bookmarks in action:)

 Getting closer to the end of this project.

Since I last posted........

 Not much has gone on:) The kids came down with their fireworks one night.

 I think this was Lucas' grand Finale 300 screaming fire cracker type things!! Not sure how else to describe it:)

 I wish I could remember where I got these lilies. Maybe Charlene or I bought them???? I have 3 of them two reddish pink and the 2 tone one.

 Lambs ear who need some? Besides Carrie and we forgot to dig some up.

 A birthday present:)

 Love it!

 A new round quilt project more coming later on it.

 I thought the package said zucchini but this is what I got. I still think it is a summer squash of some kind.

 On my walk.

Waiting for Joe, try to always have my camera with me.............JMF
