Rock Party 2010 and New Quilts

Did I tell you that our 2010 Rock Painting party is scheduled for June 18 and 19, 2010!?? Go to the Rock Party label and see all the information....each year the agenda is pretty much the same. We are looking forward to the best year ever! This will be our 11th year to have friends and rock painters come and paint rocks at Dees' Dream! We have had some good times and good memories! I've already heard from several rock painters and some new ones, too!

Just wanted to post another photo or two...of my latest quilt creations! Hope to see you in June!

One of 2 t-shirt quilts that I made for someone to give as Christmas gifts...Queen size quilt. This is 36 blocks, 13 inch square.
This is Hands that Love you quilt for a grandmother with her grandchildren's hand prints all over. It is made for a twin bed but hangs over....actually a double bed size quilt.

I'm working on 2 more t-shirt quilts now. One is ready for quilting and I still have to put the 2nd one together.

I think I need to post some more quilts that I have finished. We delivered 5 quilts to Mississippi New Year's weekend when we went to visit our families.

This is another photo quilt that I put together for a friend for her mom.

The quilt on the right is one I put together for my friend. She had found 60 quilt blocks that her mom had put away and asked me to make her son and daughter a quilt and a throw for herself.

This quilt on the left is another muumuu throw that I put together from muumuus that my sister-in-law had saved from her mom's wardrobe many years ago.

When we came back home from our visit in Mississippi, I came back with orders for 6 more quilts.....3 more muumuu throws, 2 t-shirt quilts and another quilt from blocks from a friend's mom.

I just wanted to share a new picture that was sent to me of a t-shirt quilt that I made for Greg for his Christmas from his mom and dad. His mom sent me the t-shirts and of course, he knew nothing about it. He is displaying it after opening it Christmas.

I also made his brother a t-shirt quilt and his brother's wife a wedding quilt of their wedding. They can all stay warm this winter!

We delivered 5 quilts to Mississippi this past New Year's weekend and also visited with our families while we were there. My dad had his 90th birthday party when we celebrated Christmas with all of our families, too.
This is a muumuu throw that I made from the scraps of the 4 muumuu quilts that I made. I have enough to make 3 more throws.

This Queen sized quilt on the left is made from quilt blocks that my friend's mother made and had packed away. After her mother passed, she found them and asked me to put them together and quilt them for her son and daughter. I had enough blocks left to make her a throw to remember her mother by.

These are 2 of the quilts we delivered to Mississippi this past weekend.

My mom and dad are surrounded here by my sisters and brother and me with almost all of their grandchildren and great grandchildren in their front yard. The weather cooperated and was nice enough for the kids to climb the trees.
