Texas Department of Agriculture Wine Block

I didn't get to say anything on my earlier post with the pictures, because you-know-who was calling on me (you know, the other one), the one called Rex.

It was a wonderful day. Seven of the Wacky Pac Quilters were there. Three of which had blocks in the quilt. We had a fun time as always. Commissioner Staples presented each of the ladies that had a block in the quilt, with a certificate and a goody bag (wine glasses, Go Texan things - mouse pad, scratch pads, lint roller, closet cedar hanger and there was a bottle of Burleson Honey.

The quilt was really pretty. The theme of the quilt this year was "Toast a Rising Star" representing the Texas Wine Industry.

I also didn't get a picture of my fellow wackies and their blocks on my first post, so here they are.

Nine Patch Quilt

I haven't blogged since February, but I FINISHED a quilt! Yea! We had a nine patch swap several years ago and I've had it set together for several years, got it quilted a couple months ago and just finished the binding. Here it is on my queen size bed. Well, it's not totally finished because I don't have a label on it yet. I know my pillows don't match. I need to make some shams and pillows to match. Or maybe I'll go to WalMart. lol

Cruise pictures

We had the most wonderful time. It was a "whirlwind" of a cruise. And we DID sew a little.
