Hello Cuties, I have been so busy lately, but it's all good.
First off, I wanted to show you the quilting done on this QOV quilt top I made,The Eagle Has Landed, because the quilter did a custom job of it and it is amazing! She quilted each section, block or border with it's own stitching. Look and see for yourself. The back is almost as pretty as the front. It was given Thursday, at a presentation ceremony.
We just got home from the fundraiser/auction for the lady with the kidney disease I told you about. I showed you the items I made and donated 2 table runners and 2 baby quilts for. I was curious to see how much they went for, but also thought if they went for hardly nothing I would bid and buy them back. I didn't have to worry. They raised $330. for the four pieces, so I was satisfied. I only had about $20 in expense, plus my work, because the fabric was all donated. I came home with a good feeling that this would, in a small way, help the lady with medical expenses and also to know my work was appreciated.
On the way back today we dropped in and saw the new baby Kinsley. She is a doll! Her hair is almost jet black and thick as a fur cap. Of course, she is a good baby and never woke up while we were there.
My oldest daughter was there and when I asked about baby Dawson, she said he had gained almost 10 ounces. So all is well here and hope you all are too.
Maybe things will settle down and I can be on Cute more. Until then Happy Birthday to those I missed, prayers for all my Cuties and hope you all have a great day,as always,Toogie
Thanks and I was wowed too with her quilting! This is my second quilt I pieced for QOV but the first one I got back from the quilter. I was overjoyed with her work. I'm not sure if she will do the other quilt or it will go to someone else but I don't think anything will top this.-I sure was glad about the fundraiser. My friend hand embroidered a set of college team pillowcases that went for about $85 and a pre-quilted baby quilt panel that all she did was bind it. It also went for $85. She was pleased as well.
I’m so happy your work was appreciated and you were able to help raise money for that lady. God bless you Toogie xxx
Great job on your craft work and the work that you have put into so much.
