Last night was guild meeting, and Karen decided she'd like to come along and see what happens. She very kindly offered to pick me up (always appreciated as I still don't have a US license) and this lovely basket was given to me when I got in the car. Thank you Karen, it's adorable. How wonderful to be able to finally meet another blogger. I think Karen enjoyed the evening. We had a guest speaker who appraises depression era quilts, and of course she brought along a selection of quilts for us to oooooh and ahhhhh over. I just wish I had remembered to take the camera, there really were a couple of quilts worthy of a photo.Now to the second part of the title. Yes the quilt is getting closer to being finished and the pattern is partly written, (currently being proof read). Yesterday I finished putting it together, and now it sits folded waiting for me to have a brainstorm for the borders......Hmmmm that may take some time, no, no, just kidding. I have ideas brewing, I just need to work out the math, which means it may be a phone call to Bren . Her ability with mathematics is much higher than mine.....
So I'll leave you with another peek at part of a block.

Happy Stitching, and thanks for all the words of encouragement on the new quilt venture.

SO much work.....and exquisite work at that!!
Can't wait to see the finished project.
Have a lovely day!
Hi Linda, I love your little peek. It is so cute with the bunny sitting in the grass. I can't wait to see this finished. Your stitching is wonderful. Those stitches are so small and even. Great job.
Linda those flowers are so beautiful, and the color is so great.
The quilt top is looking lovely! You really have some lovely things on the go here! Thanks for stopping by and noticing my quilts! Hope to 'see' you again sometime!
Good luck with every-thing. I can't wait to see it all when it is finished.
It's really lovely....can't wait to see the whole thing.
What a nice basket to receive. Your sneak peek has got me curious, can't wait to see the whole thing. Best wishes to you in this venture.
Sounds like a fun evening! Your stitching is beautiful :)
What a sweet gift and your quilt is just lovely!!
I can't wait to see the finished quilt! It is going to be such a beauty! Like I said before, I can't wait!
Good luck with the pattern writing and your new business. I like the sneak peeks you have shown. Lovely fabrics.
You are very lucky getting Lea's bunny quilt. I thought it was adorable when she showed it on her blog. It has found a good home wiht you. Happy stitching.
Hiya Linda
That is a really beautiful quilt you have wonderful color sense I come to read and look at the pictures of your blog often
What a nice basket and friend! I am loving the blocks and the quilt so far. I am excited for you in this new venture and can't wait to see the results.
I can't wait to see the finished project Linda. It looks good so far.
Can't wait to see it. Such a nice gift from Karen, too!
I enjoyed the guild and meeting you very much. The stitcheries are beautiful and I love the soft colors. Can't wait to see the quilt. Looking forward to visiting with you again.
Come on Linda, we really need to see this quilt...all these little bits that you are showing, it is very naughty...
O h you are so creative, I can't wait to see. Pattern writing is very time consuming, and with so many things to consider. Telling is easier LOL. Good for you.
Nice gift basket and a fun evening out must have been such a nice treat for you both. I am patiently waiting for my "signed" copy of your new pattern...something to look forward to.
