Gravatt Construction

Mr. OLT was at Gravatt Conference Center this morning. He was there to take measurements of the Chapel so that we can 'map out' the space for Summer Fun 2. While he was there he took 2 pictures of the Cole Expansion. Unfortunately it won't be complete for at least 6 more weeks. We can use it in February, but, not in August.

Thought you might like to see how it's going:

You can tell which side we are on. I don't see any windows framed into the side of the building. I haven't talked to Mr. OLT about the space so I don't know if they are framed for other spaces.

This picture makes the space look huge!!!!!! One good thing is that we will see it 'almost' completed while we are on the property for Summer Fun 2.


I also have some pictures of the Chapel building. Mr. OLT is working up a drawing to scale so that we can determine how to set things up.  I'll post some of those pictures of that area later.



In the meantime, I have started a new project and I hope to have it completed before we go for Summer Fun 2. That way I will actually have something for 'Show and Tell'.

More soon,

Sandy's Mystery

Just finished quilting Sandy's Mystery from February 2011. I did have some issues with the thread choice, but, fought though it. I really wanted this color thread. This pantograph is one that I really like. It is high density, but, oh so pretty.

Here are a few pictures:



Now on to the binding. She will be at Summer Fun 2 in 14 days, so she will be able to see it 'live'.

Off to stitch,



Hot off the Frame

Darling baby quilt. First quilt for the quilter and look at those prairie points!!!!!! Perfect and lined!!!!

Dawn had already 'finished' this quilt by the time that I got it. Her husband (smart guy) thought that it needed more quilting. So, Dawn contacted me to see if we could get this done before her delivery date within two weeks. Sure.
I did a heart in the print blocks to tie them down and just a little scollop around the white blocks so that I would not interfere with the embroidery.

I know that it is hard to see the quilting. I used Superior's Lava in Garnet and Black (just happen to keep that in stock). This really is a cute quilt and I really enjoyed working on it.
See ya later,

Successful Weight Loss

Hello,
Rocky here. I don't post often, actually October 2010 was the last time I did this. That was when Mom, Dad, and Dr. Erin put me on a diet. That was when I looked like this at 97 lbs:

And like this:
















And then finally like this:

Cute huh?

Well, today I went for a weigh in. Dr. Erin was sooooooo proud of me. This is what I look like today:

Look at this new sleek body:


And here is one more view:

Cute butt don't cha think?

I am now down to a slim and trim 67.7lbs and Dr. Erin is soooooooo proud of me that she wants to make me the poster boy for the office. Mom wishes that she could try some of my special food and loose as much weight as I have.
I really have to thank Mom, Dad, and Dr. Erin. With this slim, trim, and toned new me. I now have a good chance of living a really long life.
That's it for today. See you soon.

Rocky.

It is so hard to believe that the year has passed so fast.
Enjoy the pictures.

Another Busy Week

Remember this? This is the top panel of an Advent Calendar. My job was to duplicate it in triplicate. Or is that 'my job is to triplicate it'?

Well, today I finished. This is what I came up with.

They aren't exact duplicates. I used beads, buttons, and ribbons on my pieces. They are also not identical to each other. Each has it's own personality. I do hope though that Ellen likes them. She will finish the calendar using these panels.

Lot's to tell you about the trip to the AQS show in Knoxville. I will get that post together and get it up on Blogger as soon as I can.

 Roada also needs to complete her stories about her trip. She has been complaining about being in her travel bag since last Saturday, so, tonight I will take her to Design Group. Maybe that will settle her down for a while.

There is one person that will be SHOCKED to see what is going on the frame. Olivia is really ready for a challenge, soooooooooooo, stay tuned.

Until later,
