Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31:30

I have been away too long! I hope you are having a wonderful summer, what's left of it. I have been challenged by one of my quilting buddies to finish the many things in my sewing room that are 'in progress' so to that end I have finished up three quilt tops. And I am finishing the quilt that I called ugly in an earlier post. I will post a picture of it when I am finished. I began quilting it last night and got about half way finished. I am quilting it with flowers and bugs of different kinds. This little guy pictured below is inspiration for one of the bugs I am stitching into the quilt.
He is sitting on my 'Gramma' Amaryllis. I call it that since it belonged to my Grandmother. She was a quilter as well. Free motion quilting gives so many possibilities for adding some fun to your quilts. How do you spice up your quilts? I'd love to hear your inspiration!

Scrappily,
