Teapot Quilt and Sharie's News............

You are going to have to click on the pictures to see this quilt up close. The quilt is so nice and bright. I machine embroidered all of the teapots and chose the colors for the teapots by the color of the fabric. This is only the top. I am working on a pieced back, need to make a label and then have it quilted.

Outside of quilting things have not changed much. The weather is nice. We are having warmer nights then we had in October. It is 8:30 p.m. and it is 69 degrees. The days have been in the 70's. I expect all of that to change soon. After all, it is winter even in the south.

I am starting to Christmas shop. It is hard to believe that it is that time of year. In three weeks, I will be putting up decorations. Thankfully Victor is a big help. I could never do all of that without him.

We are going to old friends for Thanksgiving. I love Thanksgiving in the south. They have their traditional things just as we do in the north. I am looking forward to carrot souffle. It is so good.

Hope all is well ..........

  3. The teapots are from Amazing Designs. Teapot Birdhouses AD1289. They didn't look like birdhouses to me. There is also a book with them in it - Machine-Embroidered Quilts by Jennifer Lokey.

    Thank you Deborah. Took me long enough don't you think :-)
