The plan is to finish Hearts of Hope by Bonnie Hunter.  Some string units got their corners on and then I will work on putting the hearts together.  I would so much like to have this done by the weekend.  I want to have it in the mail to Kerry this time next week.

Enjoy your Memorial Day =^.^=

Two Birthdays to celebrate this week...Tiffany a big "Zero" birthday and Greyson Two.  Happy Birthday you two.

Katching Kluckers is completely finished.  I finished putting the eyes on yesterday.  I am being a bit silly...but, this occurred to me as I was putting this project together.

How funny would it be to add a caption to the third turkey that didn't make it to the quilt front?  I actually learned something in putting the caption together.  The presidential pardon of the Thanksgiving turkey has become an annual event, but the peace pact between the fowl and the White House is a relatively new thing.  And in fact, a few presidents actually ate their guests!  It was President George H.W. Bush who made the turkey pardon official.  The names were Peanut Butter and Jelly come from a list submitted by schoolchildren.  The two fowl will return to their home state of Indiana to live out the rest of their days at Purdue University's Animal Sciences Research and Education Farm in West Lafayette.

I am back to Autumn Love project.  These are the units for the 4" Stars of Week 4.  This Week also has four Harvest Stars and the word AUTUMN to assemble as well.

Nothing to change my stats this week.  I sure am enjoying the four day weekend!

Karre is finished (Carre is a type of tulip).  This was from a Sunshine Quilt Guild BOM Win.  I won the blocks Hallie coordinated.  To balance out all the colors and make it a nice size I added the two purples.  It is quilted with the cutest bee pattern in pastel thread.

Also done is Julie's Flower block.  This is May's BOM.  Julie supplied the green and neutral pieces.  Participants were to add a 4 1/2" flower square.

Still binding today.  Katching Kluckers is what's being sewn.  192" around, label, and sleeve.  I also have a very funny caption sewn to the back.  Need to look for three small black buttons for the turkey eyes.

Hope your week ahead is awesome=^.^=
