Princess Mignon Abbie up above a bit tired from watching me run around this past two months like a lil French Chicken with her head cut off...
This is a QUICK POST to say I'm ALIVE! :)
and...what I've been doin! Nope, I've not been taken by Body Snatchers...but I kinda feel like it!
I decided to finish a 3 year old project! It's almost done. I started this quilt for my first grandchild literally three years ago. His third birthday is 10/10 and I decided since the birthday theme was FISHIES, I'd finish the Oceanic Fish Quilt that I designed for him (my first quilt) long long ago...come look with me. I'm nearly done too! This is one of the fishies...

This is a long distance pic of the quilt at an angle. I'm quilting it all now...after I finished the applique's...and then I put the border on and "voila"...it will be ready for the WRAP! Party is this Sunday!
Traveled to PA for a friends funeral...and at the Restaurant afterward there was a Historic Bridge and when I walked over it, this was sticking out of the stone bridge wall. No kidding....had to have a pic of it! Talk about a once in a lifetime moment.
Worked on this in between quilting for my girlfriends birthday gift, "Kathleen Ellis" of LifeStyle Designs... It's in the mail to her...can you tell me what it is? :) Kath...do you know what this is? It was soooooo much fun making...and the cool thing about it, I'm making more! :)
This little tiger (poodle) I babysat for a week. Is he not the coolest little guy you ever did see? Ms. Abbie was in love.......is in love! She loves French Men! ;) His name is "Baloo". He has chocolate hair, chocolate eyes, and chocolate nose...and chocolate LIPS! He's CHOCOLATE! teahehe!
Oh how I've missed you all...now that the quilt has been nearly taken care of, I think I just may be back online soon! My company of four months has left...and I'm not making as many HUGE meals! YEA.... :)Hugs and Sugar to all of you that left me such adorable and friendly notes saying how you've missed me! I have SO missed each of you! I'll be making the rounds to your place SOON!
Ciao for now~

The quilt is fabulous. I love the pics of the precious dogs, they are so cute. Glad to have you back. Hugs, Marty
Hi Catherine, Oh I have missed you so much and I was thinking of you today when I saw your comment to me. How's that for a little esp. Just loved reading about and seeing pics of your happenings. The quilt is gorgeous. What a wonderful and keepsake gift for your grandson.
Princess Abbie is a darling. Too cute. Sorry you had a friend pass away. How interesting that you found that paper sticking out of the stone wall.
I really can't visualize what the pretty treasure is you made for your friends B'day. Looks like velvet, with a crocheted glove maybe. Could it be a velvet pumpkin? Looks like it has a stem of some sort. Whatever it is, I know it is gorgeous from what I can see.
The sweet Baloo is too cute with his big eyes and chocolate curls.
Thank you for stopping by and saying hello. I hope to visit you more often too as my summer has been very busy as well and I am trying to do better with posts and visits.
See you soon.
Blessings and hugs, Celestina Marie

CC, So glad you are back, I have been negligent in posting, but as you know things sometimes get in the way. The quilt is darling.

Your quilt is lovely and I loved the Scripture along the way.

Just wanted you to know that I left something for you in my blog posting today. Hope you're having a fabulous week...Kathy
LOVE Princess Mignon Abbie! I have Princess Reba also a Sheltie. They are such a wonderful choice for a life mate. And what personality they have. Is yours truly a princess? Mine is. Can't stand to get her feet wet, rules the roost etc... But, at least you got Abbie to put on the glasses. Not Reba! They are putting shingles on the roof today & it's way too much noise for Reba.
Love the quilt. Hope you have it done & in that little sweeties hands! The colors you have chosen are wonderful
I have missed you too! What a great quilt, and to have it finished at last!!! I love the velvet piece (tea cozy?)
and the crocheted glove handle!!!!
Hugs,
Margaret B
Glad you are back:)
