Redwork Quilt

I am working on a Redwork quilt of my family, each picture is alternated with the heart. I have about 12 more pictures of different people of my family and about 10 more hearts to do.

My Birthday was May 8 and my family gave me a surprise party, We had a wonderful time as you see i was surprise. They told me we was going to Johnathan's Steak House to eat but i was surprise we made a Detour. My cake had my picture on it and it was delicious.

This Sue Bonnet Lap Quilt is the first quilt i made, It is appliqued on, I enjoyed making it after i seen how easy it was since i already knew how to sew and i did some craft i went on making other different kind of quilts all together i have made 20 quilts some is quilted and some are just tops. I have 5 UFO i need to finish up.

Happy Sister's Day

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Love the ones who don't just because you can. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly. God never said life would be easy. He just promised it would be worth it. Today is sister's day, Happy Sister's Day!
