I just finished the quilt top for our expected granddaughter. I was hoping to get it finished in time for my quilters guild meeting on Oct 13, but getting the top finished will have to do. I have company coming and a trip before then, so I know I won't have time to get it quilted (I'm going to quilt it myself). The baby shower is Nov. 1, so I will have time to quilt it before then.

2 more Stitcheries
The name of this Polka Dot Girls stitchery is "Sisters." I am the one on the right and my sister is the one on the left with the cat. She's holding only one of her three cats. Tee Hee Hee! I am really enjoying working on these.
Have a great weekend and get lots of sewing done - or other stuff....

Leanne at Lizzie's Page sent me this award! I was very pleasantly surprised. I met her through a trade and she lives in Australia! It still amazes me how we can meet people this way! Thank you, Leanne!

I haven't shown any quilting lately, not because I haven't been doing any, though. I do need to take some pictures, but thought I would show a couple items that I am planning to put on an Etsy site, once we get organized enough to get it set up. I have some of these little flags and the doll quilt below which I tea dyed, made from leftovers of a doll quilt I made for a grand-niece. I have other items made and ready to be posted also.

n we were kids in the 50's. My sister found this reprint somewhere and got me a copy.
My grandma crocheted this apron - I wonder why? It certainly isn't the type of thing she would ever use! I don't know if anyone ever wore it, but I have it hanging on my china cabinet door knob.
Happy vintage Thursday! Check Confessions of an Apron Queen for more vintage Thursday blogs.
