Pink and red heart quilt

 
I finished my little red and pink heart quilt. I quilted an allover heart pattern in a very light pink quilting thread.  A scrappy pink and red binding finished off the quilt.
The sweet little heart quilt goes so well with the heart decorations and pillows.
I've also been making more yo yo's, but I am not sure where I'm going to use them, maybe on a quilt or more pillows. 
I have been making so many pink and red pillows and a quilts, so I needed a break and made a small green bunting garland.
With all my quilting, my home especially my quilting room, needed a good cleaning. Most of these nasty dust bunnies came out of my quilting room. 
My quilting table needed some serious organization. I got an old glass jar from the kitchen for the yo yo's.
Every time I do a good cleaning I also like to switch things around. I had all these almost empty spools of longarm thread laying around on my table. I will use these spools on my sewing machine in the future. I found this old flower vase and it's a nice container for the thread.
I see my sewing table is a little open. I received this dust cover with my machine and never used it before. The bins above my table need to be organized...but I did enough cleaning for today(:
And I have a few more unfinished green buntings for a longer garland next to my sewing machine.
I wish I can play all day, but I need to finish a few customer quilts. I have Jana's Kaffe Fasset quilt on my longarm.
Thank you very much for stopping by and I wish you all a wonderful week.
Smiles,
Millie

Finished Circle Quilt and more quilting and organizing

 I've been busy, done a lot of quilting and made a huge mess in my quilting room. I have a finished quilt. The Circle quilt is all done,  washed and crinkled up.
 Scrappy backing.
 I  have been quilting  beautiful quilt tops and would like to share them. Here's Barbara's Music quilt.
Border with music instruments.
 Music note backing.
 I've quilted two T-shirt quilts. This is Sheri's quilt.
 Green and orange borders.
 Yellow polka dot backing.
 Kathy's T-shirt quilt.
 Scrappy backing.
 I've also quilted two sampler quilts. Pat's yellow and blue sampler.
 
 White and blue borders.
 Blue backing.
 Glenda's sampler.
 Close up of a few blocks.
 Pink pieced border on the left.
 Crisp white backing.
 Glenda's baby quilt with printed animals.
 Solid yellow backing.
 I finished the quilting on my Hugs and Kisses quilt.
 The center teal block is my favorite block.
 Now with all the quilting and sewing I did, my quilting room became very messy. I'm going to spend the next few days cleaning my sewing table and organizing my stash.
 Fabric sorted in groups, I like to organize my stash by color.
 The first bin I tackled was the blue one - my favorite color.
 This looks so much better. The smaller pieces on the carpet need to be cut into 5" and 2.5" strips. I like to have at least one cutting day per month.
Happy quilting,
Millie

Blog Makeover




I have a new blog makeover and I love my cute button. All the credit goes to Madame Samm over at Sew I Quilt. She is also the lady organizing Stash Manicure. She took my blog and made all these cute designs just for me. I feel very blessed and I absolutely love my new blog makeover. She is one talented lady and you will love her blog. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank her for all the work she does behind the scenes at Stash Manicure.
I changed the quilt out in my quilting room. This one is called Cake Mix. It is made from a layer cake and a jellyroll.
I have these wrought iron wall sconces beside the quilt.  The candles are flameless and on a timer. I spent so much time in my quilting room and I love all the girly touches.
Here is my clock to remind me how late it is...and it is in black. And the candle in the wrought iron teapot is flameless too. It is not glowing , because the batteries died.  Oops!
Happy Quilting until next time!
