And,here it is!
I must say, the puppy in the picture is pretty cute too ;). A friend of mine machine quilted it for me, and I must say, I am loving the yellow binding on it! So happy it is completed!

Pinwheel Quilt = Complete!
Exciting news! My second quilt top (the fist one I did all by myself, out of a class), is complete! That's right! I started this Feb of 2010 and I finished it this past Spring, 2012!

A year of quilts
Ok, so maybe that is a slight lie... More like 13 months of quilts! So, it has been a busy year in a lot of ways, which is why there have not been many posts. So, here is a recap of what has been going on. Since I have 13 months to run through, I may miss some things, however, I promise to get the big things.
August 2011 - traveled to WI and San Francisco
September 2011 - got a new job at a new company!
October 2011 - moved back into the McKinley Mansion & did a month is manual labor getting the condo read to rent. It paid off, as it rented in 2 weeks!
December 2011 - traveled to MI for Christmas
January 2012 - adopted two 4 month old puppies!
July 2012 - traveled to WI for a wedding
September 2012 - got a new job at the new company mentioned above
Sprinkled in the months above we're two trips to CA for work and a couple weekends in Tucson. I also passed 3 insurance exams for work, which require a good amount of studying. But, the good news is, I was still quilting, just not posting!
So here, without further ado, is the past year in quilts!
