I totally lost count!!!!

So I was counting on having my 100th post be my big giveaway, but for some strange reason I lost count, or thought I was only two posts away, so my next entry will be the giveaway. It will just be the grand 99th giveaway! I am totally embarrassed. I feel bad that I haven't been keeping up the blog, I will be better after I get this weekend over (Happy 4th!) and sometime next week will be the start of my big giveaway.

Here's a recently finished customer quilt.
I did a lot of feathering and swirls in this one, I think it turned out nice.

It's always fun to see the back.

A simple quilt design, but fun. I like to do simple sometimes because it goes by a lot faster.

Remember these fabrics? It's part of the giveaway in some form!

This one two! I can't wait for you to see the finished projects! New patterns anyone??

I love those Moda Jelly Rolls! Can't wait for you to see this one, it is too cute!

I will also be talking about my charity in the next giveaway. Clint and I have the tickets purchased and we are ready to go to Romania in September to bring several of my quilts to people and children in need. We are hoping to raise some money so we can also give these people some food as well. You can read about Clint's trip last year "here" and watch our video "here."

the quilts look great. A trip to Romania will be so neat, you will have to take photo's and post them.

Beautiful as always :) What an exciting thing to do with your quilts (referring to Romania). I have a friend who went and helped out in an orphanage a few years ago. I'm definitely coming back to read about it and see your video and I think I see a link and hint about new patterns!!

So cool that you are going to Romania. My nephew is on a mission there right now.

You are at the top of my list of people I want to quilt my next top! Your work is absolutely stunning!

I have your site as one of my faves on my little blog: http://imalldeckedout.blogspot.com/

Kaye said...

Barb said...

The quilts are wonderful...and I too love the backs as well..it is a piece of art work. I also love what you are doing for the kids in Romania....

Marcy said...

How exciting it must be for you to see and work on sooo many beautiful quilts. You do a beautiful job. I think it would only be fair to share the quilt 50/50 since you did help create it. Just a suggestion for you...LOL!

OK.... I say this ALL the time but your work is just beautiful and it always compliments the quilts so well! Can't wait to see the WHOLE picture of your sneek-peeks! :) So are you ALL going to Romania in Sept or just you or just Clint? Several of our kids have been to Mexico, Singapore/Malasyia/Tiawan..on Mission trips, it has always been life changing for them! Looking forward to hearing more. Have a great 4th!! I took out some Red, white, and blue charm packs tonight (MODA "Red, White and Bold" by Sandy Gervais), I hope to work on a table runner for a dear friend whose birthday is tomorrow! But we also have lots of family fun activites planned for the weekend so the sewing may have to wait til next week.
