Progress Photo's: Backyard Happenings & Monkey Business by Henry Glass Fabric

...

... BACKYARD HAPPENINGS ...

Here are some quick progress shots of the quilt tops I've been

slaving over working on.  I do like this simple layout because

it looks like a lot of work but it really isn't.

This top is small and needs a border or two which I'll do later.

This is a pattern I had in my 'want to make stack'.  It would

make a cute wall hanging.

I couldn't take watching the riots and disrespect of our government

last night on TV so I went to my sewing room put on some

classic rock music and made this top.

... MONKEY BUSINESS ...

This collection is so fun & perfect for any child.

My own layout design.

Another of my layout designs.

Let's count to 10 top.

I have enough fabric from both collections left to probably 

squeeze out two more tops.  My goal is to not put any leftover

pieces of fabric back into my stash but to use them all in

some way, shape, form.  More than likely most of these

tops will be donated to my guilds Outreach program.

Tomorrow my sister and I will take a quick trip to Lancaster

to do fabric shopping.  We both need a day to get away and fondle

bolts of fabric.  I'll be looking for bargains and leftover

Xmas fabric for kids since I made an early commitment 

to The Child's Haven for Xmas stockings again.
