A Finish, Shop Hop Goodies, and a Quilt Show

I got this table topper finished. I had to sew the binding on by machine because with no batting the needle had no place to go. It worked out great. This is the first time I used bias binding. I had no troubles. A quick little tutorial on how to make it then bind on the inside curve and BAM! I had a finished project. I love it. It is now washed and being loved!!

At the end of April we had a Shop Hop in my area. These are the goodies I bought. 19 fat quarters, 15 of which are 30's fabric!! LOVE IT!! Four of black and white by Me and My Sister, two are not pictured. 1 charm pack of Ticklish by Me and My Sister, plus a yard cut from the same line. A yard of some really cute bird fabric that I though matched really well. Then one yard of black with colored spots. Last a very cute Halloween wall hanging. I love looking at this pile!!

 Today my non-quilty daughter and I went to a local quilt show. We had a great time. She loves looking at them but does not want to sew one, ha ha, I will break her!! Here are a few beauties. Some old and some new.

A Trip, Quilts, and a Link

Sometimes plans change. I am leaving town tomorrow morning for a few days. DD#2 has gone camping with my parents for the week and DD#1 and I going to go find them tomorrow. Which means a new puppy + tent + cold mountain nights = no sleep. I will see how things go before I plan on how long I will be gone. If things go well we will be back on Friday ready for hot running water and a nice soft bed. If things go bad I will be back on Wednesday! LOL! I will leave you with a few pictures of a few quilt I saw Saturday at the Boise Basin Quilt Show in Boise Idaho.

And a link I saw this book on another blog and thought I would get me one. This a a cross between journaling and scrapbooking that I can love a lot!! I kind of do this any way. Have a good week! If you don't hear from me until Friday then things went well and we are having a good time!

I am not AWOL!! I have permission!

Just a few pictures of a quilt show I went to today. I will be back after this weekend is over.

 I hope that your Father's Day goes well!!
