I have sent an email to Hanne, Bernadette and Sarah but could Karen from Sew Primitive Quilter please send me an email.....you have the same problem as I had....unable to access your blog.

I have received this award from two lovely lovely ladies....Lise....and....Marits.....I really am lost for words....it is so very kind of you both to give me an award for somthing that I find just so enjoyable.....blogging....

I know I should be picking out several blogs to pass this award onto ....but I just find it so terribly hard, it sounds like an easy way out I know, but really there are so many blogs out there who are so inspiring...so I would like to give this award to the 80 ladies who have signed up for my challenge..(all the links are on my sidebar) everyone of these ladies blogs are offering so much to us in blogland and they have all given to me a whole new outlook on my passion...of quilting and stitching...

Take care and happy stitching......Peg....:>)

Harrison Rose and number 6

I can't believe I have finished this quilt....Harrison Rose....this has been folded up in my cupboard for quite a few years...I have done a bit of hand quilting, with Perle cotton, very basic around each row, not a lot, and the centre rose I have anchored with colonial knots ......but I am pleased with the finished product and more so that it is finished ...the last photo shows where it will live in our home...this is our tray mobile which was owned by my DH's grandmother, so it is a very special piece of furniture.....and this is my number 6.....

Time out...stop and take a look....

These a few more of the completed challenges.....If I has missed doing a link of your finished product, please let me know, I have done my best, but some days I think I may have lost the plot (bigtime) I have created a spreadsheet to keep track of everyones progress all colour coded, it looks very pretty...LOL..... here is a list of the previously posted links.......here...here... here... here... here... here...

This challenge has been just amazing....now remember no pressure in finishing 5...one finish will place you in the draw...I am looking at four prizes...two handmade by me, and the very generous Bonnie, after she signed up for the challenge Bonnie sent me an email asking if she could donate some prizes which she did, will post a photo of these in the next day for so...

Bonnie thanyou so very much......... so come on ladies you have a week....

Number Five Totally Completed...

Well it is finished, my number five...the bind is completed....had done a little extra work on quilting the border on this one.....and I am hoping I can complete maybe another one by the end of July...well maybe....

Up to number 5.....

Well this is my number five.....already to stipple.....made from Madeira......Moda......beautiful day we are having a few showers of rain......I hope it sets in for a few days...

Harrison Rose...

I did this quilt top "Harrison Rose" quite a number of years ago....it is time to finish this little baby, so I am going to have a bash at hand quilting in Perle thread...doing it this way I can have my stitches a bit bigger.......thanks Kerry the thread is perfect...(I purchased the thread from Cottage On The Hill)

Award and few more finishes...
