A Jelly Roll Quilt

I finally have a picture of this quilt after it was quilted by Rina.  This was our latest comfort quilt and it was pieced by Rina also.   A very big thank you goes to my sister Sandy in Philadelphia.  She was kind enough to donate the fabric for this quilt.  It will be loved and enjoyed for many years.

A Blue String Quilt

The ladies have been working on a blue string quilt.  It's amazing how no matter how many pieces get used, the fabric scraps keep growing and growing.
 
 
 
 
 
This comfort quilt should be ready soon and on it's way.  Just 60 squares.  Not bad.

This Is An Old One

Sara made this pillow a long time ago for a very dear friend.  She recently was in her friends home and saw the pillow that she made so long ago.  How nice to see that it's still in good shape and being enjoyed by her friend and family.  Can anything be nicer?

My Grandson

I have several grandson's and fortunately for me, one of them enjoys fixing things.  I decided to clean up my sewing room, which always means rearranging things.  While doing this I decided it was time to fix my shelving unit.  The back needed repair and my grandson, Reuven Yosef, came to help.  He did a very good job.  Now my fabrics won't fall out the back.

Renee Has A Bernina

Renee has good news.  She just bought a new Bernina.
 
 
Well, with a new machine like this, one has to have a sewing room.   So, Renee made space in a room that she shares with the family.  This includes a closet.  I can't wait to see all the new quilts coming from this sewing space.
