Busy Busy

Well I have been pretty busy. Most of it though has been computer work but I have been getting some sewing in as well. I have finished getting the Cherokee Rose Guild Site done and I am very pleased with it. I almost have the West Georgia Quilters Guild site done. I need to work on the gallery for that one still.

We are raffling off a wonderful quilt that has been appraised at $2400. I am selling tickets, so if you want any I gladly accept paypal, just send me a note using the contact form. The raffle tickets are $1 each or 6 for $5. That is a photo of it. It is all hand appliqued and hand quilted. The top is an antique, the owner donated it to our guild and they finished the quilting and the binding. Did not affect the value at all.

I have also been making a DVD movie for the Cherokee rose guild to sell and it turned out wonderful. I included over 600 photos that we took throughout 2006.  Once I get the jewel case images done I will post a picture.

I will also post a picture of the quilt that is on my design wall this weekend, I only have to put the borders on. I have rehearsed a few border options and it is tough trying to figure out the border for this one. I am not thrilled with the border fabric I initially pulled out. It isn’t a fancy quilt, very simple actually and so I am putting on simple borders. I will also post a photo of the Christmas wreath quilt I made as part of our guilds Thank the Bank program. We don’t hold our meetings in the banks building anymore so we won’t have to worry about making any Thank the bank stuff this year.

Well I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I am going to spend mine quilting.
