Thank you for your prayers, I am home

Casserole carrier

A friend of mine shared her pattern for this casserole carrier.  I had fun making it and I used a fabric that was given to me oh about 5 years ago.  I love cats but I am allergic to them so she sent me this wonderful colorful fabric.  She is no longer with us but when I was making this carrier I wanted it to be whimsy and bright and this fabric worked wonderful....thanks MaryK!

NY Beauty Fabrics

I would like to try my hand at making a New York Beauty quilt and if you look on my side bar there is a group that is starting one on the 3rd.  I have picked out these fabrics having the black as my background but I think I might want all my  points to be one color too.  I have not decided that yet but I guess I will decide shortly, I was thinking of a gold or red.  I will let you know what I decide...thanks for looking.  There is also 2 blacks; one has a little swirl in it almost like a grayish and the other is Kona but I will more than likely go with the Kona.
