Take me to your leader!!

Isn't that what the aliens in UFO's say?? Well, I am talking about UFO's of a different kind! Above is a current project, not a UFO...I am trying to keep up...fancy that! We only have two more blocks to go, and then this woolie summer project from Primitive Gatherings will have all the blocks done. Whoohoo! These blocks have some stitching done, but need tons more...but at least they are all prepped!
Aren't these the most wonderful Cheddars? I just love them! Thank you so much, Lyn...I have them in the Dear Jane box...and I really need to get back to that quilt!!
I made another runner from the border leftovers of the plaid quilt...and I still have a little more border left, so may make one more. Just can't throw away those plaids!
The scrappy quilt middle is together...that was fun, in between cleaning and dashing around the house today, I did this. I love all the scraps together...fun for me!
And at last, two little cushions...just for fun!!




108 degrees F here today...melting, I tell you!!!



Have a super day!

Your BOW blocks are wonderful! You're keeping up better than me - I'm two blocks behind, but have great plans to catch up next weekend. I can't wait to see the borders and setting on this quilt - I'm really liking the blocks.

I just love all the projects you have on the go!
Those plaid runners are awesome...the quilting in the dark thread really makes each piece even better (if that's possible)
