Mug Mat Swap 2017
Recently I participated in the Mug Mat Swap hosted by Donna at: Brynwood Needleworks Blog. Pictured above is the adorable mat that my partner Jody sent. She does not have a blog, but is an excellent seamstress. 'Love that little butterfly, and if you look under it you will see that she even outline stitched a little design of the state of Tennessee. The fabrics are beautiful, green being my favorite. Jody also included two bags of hollyhock seeds. Thank you so much Jody. What awesome goodies. To see the mat that I sent to Jody, please continue reading..

Westering Women QAL quilt top completed!
Finally, I have completed my Westering Women QAL quilt top. This was a fun QAL hosted by: Civil War Quilts Blog in 2016. The setting is also a suggestion from the blog, and is called The Way West. Notice the arrows all point to compass west. Of course green was chosen for the arrows, lol, my favorite color. The beige just seems to be a good neutral color to use. My quilt top finishes at 72"X84", and hopefully will have quilting and binding soon. Stay tuned to see that. There is also a Flickr group for this QAL (see the white tab link to the left of this blog's header). There you can see many other people's blocks and quilts, including mine. To see a close-up view of this quilt top, follow the link below my signature. Prim blessings to you all.

The Splendid Sampler™ QAL
What are all of these quilt blocks? They are the ones that I have completed for: The Splendid Sampler™ QAL. There are 100 blocks total + some bonus blocks, designed by several very talented quilters. There were also several great giveaways going on for those who made even just one of the blocks. Joining the QAL kinda late, these are all that I have completed. 'Hope to make a few more, and later form a table runner. Stay tuned to this blog for future updates on my progress. Prim quilting blessings.
