Paper Piecing Project

Shhhhh
It's a secret... I don't think any of you will recognize this bit of it. But I just had to do some paper piecing. It's been a long time.

So far this is all I've done.... more to come.

Hugs,

Finished the H2H for 2016

Just finished the binding.... pink.  Here's the quilt (held up by the Zombie Hubby Hands).

 Close-ups

and this is the backing fabric.

It's getting sent to Happy Chemo... in honor of my Daughter.  As long as I can quilt and Sarah runs her charity, I'll make one for this charity. 

Hope you are having some lovely spring weather. We got up to 65 today!

Hugs,
Terri

Spring? in Superior W

Pictures taken yesterday = Wednesday. (Saturday we are forecasted to have SNOW again.)

 Rhubarb - got any good recipes?  I need the kind with little sugar or a sugar substitute.  I'm too sweet already.


 Daffodils just started .... anybody know what the pink composite flower is? I've got a lot of it.


 Sorry this is so blurry. Anybody recognize it? 
I'm so happy to see the tulips coming up. I've got yellow and white in other gardens. (Notice it was so overcast the dandelions didn't open for the day.) AND there will be irises! I have missed having those since the 90s.
 
Today I'm finishing my H2H quilt. 3/4 of the binding left to do, then I'll show it off again.
 
Thanks for stopping in. I'd love if you left a comment.
 
Hugs,
Terri

H2H being quilted

I'm having a devil of a time getting this one done. The thread keeps breaking. I've rethreaded, changed the needles twice, next I'm checking the bobbin for near emptiness, and last I'll change spools.
Here's the quilt on the machine.


I'm quilting a zig zag pattern in the rows that parallels the row before. I like the look, but all that pivoting might be the stress on the thread.

Linking up with the H2H site.  Go on over there and look at the other charity entries. It's my favorite charity.

P.S. Happy Mom's Day!

Hugs,
Terri
