quarantine creations

Amidst all of the lock downs and quarantine, crafty folk have been keeping busy. 


there have been a few things that I ran out of, but my local quilt shop did curbside pick up and delivery so no worries. 
Thankfully I was able to work throughout the shut down but with no where else to go, projects were accomplished! 
I went into this thinking "I can get some of these WIPS, PHDs and UFOs finished"  but, as usual, new projects took precedence. Though, a few of them have been on the to do list and fabric was already purchase, so one could argue for UFO status.  I did get my studio in better shape -which came in handy when finding fabric for mask orders. 
So here is an overview of my projects so far:
zipper bags, curtain for my living room! Wreaths, a St Patrick's Day vest (for the cancelled party)
a bag for me- planned this one years ago!
a wall hanging for my living room
"so many of my smiles begin with you" gallery. I found the signs at big lots and had just finished a graduation album for Abby's High School Graduation. I realized I had way too many pictures on the computer instead of my walls!
masks masks and more masks
these are my inspiration pix (from pinterest) for a Golden Birthday Quilt Stanley has been helping me with it!


That's what I've been working on- and more. Took my parents to the Ark Encounter in Kentucky (and if course there were some projects for the gift reveal) and detoured to the new quilt shop
In Champaign.
This week I've been working on a birthday gift- but it hasn't been gifted yet so pictures will be forthcoming!
