Welcome to Sew Quilting!!!
Well, it seems like forever since we have posted anything to our this website, but not to fear, we're still here! Both Mary Jane and I have been creating, sewing and quilting up a virtual "storm"!!
Since my craft show in November, we did make it through the holidays, and have hit the ground running in 2010.... I am finishing (scratch that // now FINISHED) up some projects that I didn't have time to complete last year. This includes a quilt that I began last September for my husbands great-granddaughter (Hailey)...PLUS a wall hanging that I started before that! Here are those pictures I promised....Thanks for returning to check them out!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Here is Hailey's quilt called "Tile Tango" by Atkinson Designs. Measures 54" x 70". Kind of hard to tell, but it's lady bug fabric, shades of green 9 patch squares, surrounded by yellow strips with red/black polka dot boarders -- C-U-T-E!!!
 ------------------------------------------------------------- Finally finished - "Shrimp Cocktail" by Thistledown & Co. 
This wall hanging measures, 38" x 38".
-------------------------------------------------------------
And this one took one entire year to complete!! That is because it was offered as a 'block of the month', by my favorite local quilt store - Cutting Edge Quiltworks.
 This measures 29' x 39" and I will be offering this in my next craft show - It's just the right size for a lap throw!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Also, I have been:
Making, altering and repairing outfits for the AZ Dickens Carolers. Making Hawaiian dance costumes for one of the performances at the Arizona Aloha Festival at the Tempe Town Lakes March 13 & 14. Designing and making window cornices, drapes, pillows, etc.
And in between that, I do alterations for several customers. Oh, and I really do have a normal full time, day job, too!
Keeps me out of mischief!!------------------------------------------------------------- Then there's Mary Jane! She has a typical BUSY home life with my wonderful son-in-law, Vinny, and 2 fantastic grandchildren, Cody and Carlee. The kids are into baseball, basketball, etc., etc., etc.
Cares for her grandma (my mother) who will be 90 this year! Mary Jane takes her shopping, to all her appointments, etc., etc., etc. She also sews, quilts, creates and has a part time job at Close to Home in CT making home decor pillows, drapes, cushions, cornices - you name it, she can make it!!!! Mary Jane is starting to learn to dye fabric, so stay tuned for her new creations!
This family just "loves to sew" - even my mother still sews!! AND my 'little' brother, Robert, is in the process of making his first quilt, it's going to be a scrappy quilt and we've had a lot of laughs with the creation!!! Again, I promise -- pictures to follow!!! -------------------------------------------------------------

---Till next time--- HAPPY SEWING, ONE STITCH AT A TIME!! Judy and Mary Jane
