A Shining Star For You
This little quilt top is one of the patterns from Lori Smith's line: Fit To Frame. Since this picture was taken I have machine quilted the top and sewn the binding to the front. I'll take a completed picture when I finish the binding.
Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there!

Recently I hung a couple of things in the guest room. One of them was this quilt that I call Heart Garden. I hung it behind an old iron bed. I've had this bed for many years. The quilt was a kit from Houston St. Merchantile in Granbury, TX. It's machine quilted by my friend Ty. She did a beautiful job using feathers and a background filler. I know the picture is fuzzy but take a close look at the white metal piece hanging above the quilt. I think it came off an old porch.
I found this little hanging rack at an antique store in town. It's not old but it's so cute! I hung the Tootie Babies little outfits and Easter hats on it. The style of this room is Shabby Chic.

It's a hot, dry day in Texas today. I think we will reach 100 degrees this weekend. My sister and dad are driving up from Louisiana today for a visit. I've got a quilt project planned for my sister so stay tuned for some show and tell!

Plentiful and a Budding Photographer
Plentiful designed by Kathy Schmitz. I haven't decided whether to frame this or make it into a pillow.
This is the book the pattern is from. (Sorry about the flash.) Kathy Schmitz considers herself an updated Americana/folk artist. Her website is http://www.kathyschmitz.com/
