Bumper boats and race tracks

I always wish I had gotten more photos.   The family time together went so fast.   The kids loved the bumper boats and the race tracks.  It looks like the adults loved them too. 

 We got to visit with some friends we have cherished over the years and also celebrated an early birthday. 

The start of a new quilt.... PINEAPPLE CRAZY

This is a huge quilting project.   I can't believe I am even doing it.    These blocks are paper pieced.  There are 12,000 pieces in this quilt,    I have 84 five inch blocks of 224 made so far and that doesn't count for the border blocks or the corner blocks.   I do love the pattern and results are stunning.   That is what keeps me going and sewing. 
If I get it done by February 2014 I may enter it in the local quilt show.     I will have to keep at it to get it done.   It is very time consuming!

A memory quilt for a customer.

Took an order for a memory quilt for a sweet lady who wanted to remember her son.   His T- shirts and other shirts were used as the squares.
