Miscellaneous bag stuff

These are some zippered bags that I've been working on.  I cut up a bracelet and made zipper pulls with the 8-balls for my daughter and a friend, who both play pool.   All finished and given away.

8-Ball Fabric

I love buying old men's clothing and cutting it up for quilts.  This is one fine example of someone's sense of humor.  Since I run a Billiards League I thought it was pretty appropriate that I buy this pair of men's pajamas and use this fabric in a quilt.

Another view.

Kaffe Fasset Quilt

This one is finished but this is pictures as it was in-progress.  My niece has made it very clear that she wants it.  I love it when someone clearly lets me know that they would appreciate one of my quilts--let's me know that they will want it enough to take care of it, use it, and keep it.

Here's a picture of what it looked like in the beginning but I didn't like it and so I changed it to what you see above.

Retreat Quilt

I worked on this Wild and Wonderful quilt at the last retreat in April.  I do want to finish it sometime soon.  I think I'll have to keep this one.  Almost every block has a fabric from men's shirts I bought at Goodwill and cut up.  Funky.

Mesquite Quilt Guild meeting

This is the row quilt I'm working on month-by-month.  See, January is the snowflakes, February is the hearts, and so on...

Mesquite Quilt Show

The Mesquite Quilt Show is today and tomorrow and since I have a tournament tomorrow I have to go today.  But my air conditioning is out and they are coming at 3:00 to fix it, so I guess I won't get to stay as long as I'd like.

My niece, Rachel, is going with me. I hope she will have seen enough by the time I drag her away. 

I have two quilts in the show--I'll try to post pictures tomorrow.   I also entered several mini's, a couple of which were hand-quilted by my friend, Sharron.  Last year she and I won the Mini Best of Show, with my piecing/binding and her wonderful quilting.  I had to buy it back so it's on my wall.  I also bought several mini's from other people, so I suppose this year will be no exception.  For a good cause, right?  LOL  I'll post pictures of anything I take home.
