it's been a tough week

Debra pieced this lovely quilt.

The fabric reminds me of Beauty and the Beast.

So lovely.

My cousin's son passed away suddenly last week. I have been swamped helping plan a funeral for a 15yr old. I honestly can not think of anything worse to go through. Please keep them in your thoughts.

Secret sewing is almost finished (whew) and since some of the quilts have been delivered, I can start sharing them.

A few years ago our church asked if I could make a quilts for two graduates of the Bible school associated with our church. And it seems this will be a trend that will continue lol.

For this quilt, I got to be sneaky. I called the recipients cousin(who I was also making a grad quilt for lol) to find out the favorite colours. Than I found the most perfect fabric.

Unfortunately, the day I took this pictures was horribly rainy and the colour isn't accurate. The quilt is more pink/fuschia and teal than red.

I love how the quilting works with this quilt. A perfect accompaniment.

I didn't have enough of the solid fabric to finish the binding so I took the few layer cake squares that I didn't use in the quilt and worked them in on the binding.

I still have a wee bit of secret sewing to finish. Stay tuned!

Tomorrow, I will become the mom of two!!! high school graduates. Grad is in full swing here; we have 3 grad ceremonies this weekend, 2 graduation parties and a 50th wedding anniversary party to attend. As a result, I've been busy.
