UFO number 12

Wow, where did June go? This has been a very busy month for me.  This month we had vacation bible school, grandchildren for a week and went on an 8 day vacation with my brother, sister in law, and niece.  We got back on Tuesday the 26th and the only days I had to sew were Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and today.  I did have everything cut out but I have had my machine humming the last few days so that I could meet my challenges.  My UFO number 12 was a Benartex Building blocks kit( in Happy Holidays fabric ) that I have had for at least 10 years is not more.  I got the top finished and will get it quilted hopefully before Christmas.

My number 3 project is my Cinco De Mayo again.  I am going on a 5 day quilt retreat this month so I know there will be some sewing time.  That makes me happy!!

Design Wall 6-4-2012

My design wall looks crazy.  I still have my Cinco de Mayo blocks up there but have added 4 of my UFO blocks for June.  I am not sure how much sewing will get done this month.  I have VBS and grand kids all next week ( insert happy dance) and then will be on vacation for 10 days after that.  I will have sewing withdrawals by the time I get to sew again .   If I don't post in the next 3 weeks you will know why!  

Color Challenge

The color challenge for May reminded me of Christmas and I couldn't get that out of my mind so I just ran with that idea.  Here is what I made.

It is a small wall hanging, pattern by Judydidit designs.  I think it turned out pretty cute.  When my Granddaughter comes in a couple weeks I will have her add some glitz and bling to it.  I love the colors chosen for June and can;t wait to get started.
