The Old Folks Home

Sunday I finished all the kits for the row by rows I had accumulated. I tried to make 1 row a week.

Sold off the guitar (it clearly didn't go with the rest... it was supposed to be longer but my kit was cut wrong), and then tried to figure out which 5 would go together (you need at least 5 for a quilt).

With some advice I decided to make a saltwater and freshwater one. I needed one more row for the saltwater so I stitched up Whale Love using my own scrap fabrics since I was out of kits.

The top row on this one and the first horizontal one (horsetooth reservoir, colorado) under the guitar are the ones Latestarter picked up for me.

@NotAFarm picked up the Mississippi River tugboat with the dutch windmill based on Fulton, Illinois.

Cemetery season is starting up here (provided the rain stops at some point) so not sure how quick progress is going to be on it. A friend at work is also pregnant with twins, so I'll also be working on those (I'll try to hold out until July in the hopes they're girls so I can use more of a variety of fabrics but that will be cutting it close to get them done so I'll likely get started on the next rainy weekend and just go gender neutral colors).

The quilt work coming along nicely!

Cemetery Season! Love it!
 
42 and rainy currently here... we had to turn the pellet stove back on.
Hell Turkey is still broody. I have no idea what she's laying on except the 6 or 7 turkey eggs I gave her. I'm sure there's chick eggs in there but she's not leaving the nest and I'm not dumb enough (this time) to try and get in there. I've got a ton of broodies right now not that I need chicks but if that happens someone will adopt the turkey eggs.

I love your quilt work! I am still trying to get the wedding quilt done! 20190522_121420.jpg
