Quilts for Kids! VERY EXCITING NEWS!!!!

Missouri Star Quilt Co. has been working on building out the Kansas City chapter of Quilts for Kids (a charity sponsored in part by Downy’s Touch of Comfort campaign)for a while now and are excited to host their first event.
Please check out the details here...the wonderful thing is that if you want them to put the batting in, bind and machine quilt it for you...they are offering it for only $10!!!!!!!!! These quilts need lots of machine quilting as they get LOTS of use and are constantly being washed. Thank you Missouri Quilts for doing this!

Yet another beautiful Nevada sunset....I cannot help taking pics! I am always awed by this.
Here is the latest addition to my cat fabric stash!! I love it! The yarn is SO vibrant!
Here are some more 9 patches for the one a day quilt from Crazy Mom Quilts. I think I am going to make a total of about 70 and then put them on point with focus fabric in white. Whatchya think?
Here is the 12 week quilt a long from Crazy Mom Quilts. I have decided to make all the blocks again to make this twice the size.
There is a quilt shop on the outskirts of Fallon called Workman Farms...on the tenth of every month they have a sale on fat quarters...TEN FAT QUARTERS FOR TEN DOLLARS!! These are ten MODA fat quarters that I got for a buck a piece!!!!!!!
Here is the quilt top from the Cafe Mom BOM...I am thinking of putting a 4-5" border around it of flying geese...and then another strip border...what do you think? which colors should I use on the flying geese? I LOVE these blocks though!
Here is Jacob :)
And here is Kyle! A couple of weeks ago he lost a front tooth! The tooth fairy has been making frequent visits to the Scarberr6y house!

Aren't they wonderful!! My best friend sent me one a while back and I have wanted to make some since....here is the one I received:

And...my BF's birthday just passed and I made her a mini-quilt....it's the perfect size to sit on a table or to add a sleeve to to make into a wall hanging.
