Step one was to count the blocks and then put them into groups that went together. I counted 57 blocks, and ended up with 9 different piles of blocks. A couple of the piles I added some other blocks too to round out the numbers of blocks going into the quilts. Over the last ten days I have managed to finish 5 of the quilt tops. The last one was finished at about 2:30 am this morning and the last couple of rows drove me nuts......not only did i have to frog-stitch one whole row thanks to sewing it on upside down. But the machine I was working on decided to stop working right. So i have to try to fix it now. THank goodness for the old kenmore.........maybe it's time to pull out the bernina that I have tucked away and start using it.....
At any rate here are pics of the 5 quilt tops I've finished so far, click on the pics to see a larger view of the quilts.





Gratitudes -
1. Multiple sewing machines that mean I almost always have a machine to sew on.
2. Lovely weather this weekend after the ice storm earlier in the week.

57 Angel Blocks!!! You really made a lot of angels that year, huh? The quilts are really nice, glad they're getting such a wonderful home.
Faith is the thing nobody will be able to take from you! I'm so proud of you for staying strong.
It was nice to see the angels again, M. Mine are all made into projects and mostly given away.
I didn't see any of mine in the tops you've finished so far. Keep posting!
