SAL with Janet and Deb

Here is the progress of my recent works.

I just reached to our goal for this month

on Ann Sandles.

She is so much fun playing with :D

It was such a wonderful feeling

spending almost all day stitching

 without any distractions yesterday :O

I haven't had that luxury for the longest time

since over two months!?

Now my work has been back to 

the way it always has been and 

all the house guests are gone for now.

I guess not many people are that brave

to spend their time in the southwest desert

during the summer time!?

And this is my mini quilt collection

of Cheri's SAL this year so far.

She has started hosting this fun SAL

early this year as monthly thing.

I finished the ones from 

January thru March, 

and the tops are just hot off 

the sewing machine for April & May.

I feel so great about "getting out of my box"

by following her SAL,

especially the color selections.

My most challenge is the brights.

Do I really want to use them in my quilts?

In a fact,

I have quite good collection of them

in my stash as I've tried to be choosy,

not to use them on purpose from

the bundles I purchased.

But now they are all beautifully in bloom!!

Yellows are screaming all over

so as bubble gum pinks!

Ok, that's all for now.

Thanks for visiting 

and

enjoy the rest of Mother's Day!!

Xoxo,
