Still alive and quilting.....

Still keeping busy, but I'm a bad bad blogger.......

I've got binding on four quilts that I've been dragging my feet about finishing. I'll be hand sewing all the bindings down on Craft Day this Saturday. Here they are.....








There's is big oops in that last one. I even hand quilted it and didn't notice it until I took this pic. Oh well....too late now! I guess I'll have to live with it. I've also been working on my kits for RETREAT! Yep, going to retreat in two weeks, one day! Wooohoooo..... Don't these hand made kits look like they wanna get moving and be made into something? Two weeks better go by fast!
I'm still working on hexagons too. I kinda like working on these while pretending to watch tv at night.
We had our annual Chamber of Commerce Easter Egg hunt last Saturday. Big turn out. I think the final count for people was 625 or so. 4000 candy filled eggs later, I had a headache and was ready to come home. But...we went to the movies instead. I've seen a couple of movies lately. Knowing. The new Nick Cage movie. Very good special effects. And Garry bribed me with Popcorn to sit thru 12 Rounds. I've seen better and I've seen worse. We had a pajama party at my friend Val's house while the "men" went to Toronto a couple of weeks ago. We watched "The Secret Life of Bees". I loved the book and that usually means I will hate the movie. But not this time. Both the movie and the book were awesome.
Well....I need to figure out some more projects for the retreat....so I'm off to do that now!
Later!

You've gotten a ton done! Have fun with all those bindings. I've gotten several projects ready to go to retreat too.

Hey Regina
I wanted to pop over and take a peek at your projects. I really like the log cabin. The border is awesome.
Hope you have a great day. :o}

Looks like you are staying busy. I want to try a hexagon quilt, but..I don't want to do it by hand and machine isn't working to hot.
