Aug and Sept progress. 

I finally got to the point with my ankle that I could stand long enough to quilt on the longarm. So I got grandson's quilt quilted and the binding done It went home with his Mom this weekend.  He was surprised to get it all done.  Also Son-in-law wanted a quilt to have on his bed at his work at ambulance barn. so pulled out a few tops and let him pick one.  He decided on a brown and burgundy one it was a block of the month many years ago at a quilt shop.  It was big enough for a twin bed.  So I got it quilted too and sent home to him this  weekend.  Both were happy with them.  

I have started using small scraps to make Bonnie Hunter's Road to Grayson guilt. I am using up smaller chunks of blue fabrics  instead of her yellow even though I like her yellow. Maybe another one of these quilt in my future using yellow.  This is great evening sewing when just want to sew but not much thinking.  2 blocks done and 17 more ready to sew together into blocks.    

Also have been working on my needlepoint project while hubby was in hospital for back surgery. got quite a bit done in the 3 days he was there.   Have 6 to 8 inches to stitch and then I will be done. this is about a 40 year project...  My goal is to have it done this year and hung on the wall.  It is a bell pull that my Mother bought me and I had put it away for probably 30 years  and pulled it out to finish..  

The Kaye England BOM quilt is ready for the borders. I think it will need one more border to fit my bed.  Glad I had it to work on while ankle was healing since I could cut one month and then sew it since could not stand for long time to cut  or sit to sew  without taking time to put it up with ice packs.

Ankle is healed now still is still and swells when do too much  go to Dr on Friday the 1st of Oct for final visit.

Well better close this post out and tend to laundry it just beeped saying it is done ready for next load.

Happy Quilting,
