I finally did the machine quilting of my Celtic Wallhanging. I had a lot of fun doing it, and it is hanging now in the living room. Joe and I both love it!! I now only have one UFO to do, and that is to machine quilt the miniature house quilt that I made, and I will start that tomorrow.I also got a gorgeous siggy from Frouwkje who is from the Netherlands. Isn't the
Dutch boy and girl in the centre just adorable? Thanks so much! I am slowly but surely coming to the end of the required amount of siggies that I need to make the quilt.
Finally, some exciting news for us...Joe entered a drawing and won a Toshiba television/dvd combo for our bedroom. It is really neat, and can you picture us watching movies in the bedroom lying on our bed propped up on our huge pillows? Joe set it up this morning, and that was a nice surprise for us.

Congrats on the great win!!! The Celtic hanging turned out terrific. I am going to start doing the siggy block exchange soon, too!
Your Celtic quilt will make such a lovely addition to your home. I can't wait to see the miniature house one finished.
Lucky Joe. That is awesome. Don't spend too much time in bed. ;)

Vrolijke Paasdagen!
I'm telling you, I've never heard of someone who wins so many things as you! Congratulations on the TV. Wow. I think you need to give lessons on how to win. Or is it just the luck of the Irish?
Congrats on Joe winning the tv. I finally got my Irish Quiliting magazine in the mail, and I was so happy to see the Celtic wallhanging pattern in it! I cannot wait to make it along with the Abbey Window quilt. Enjoy your new "Media" room!!
Hugs!!

Well done on your finish.
Yes I am getting lots of siggy's too but still need a few more.
How wonderful to win a TV. Good on you Joe!!!
What will you do when you're finished everything? :)
I love to listen to your music and often want to look up who the artists are - but your second playlist is hidden underneath your border and I don't know how to pull it out of there so I can see what it says. Can you tell me?
Congrats to Joe...how exciting for you both. have a lovely Easter..

Great machine quilting Micki!
Wooo Hooo on all fronts!
I used to have a tv in the bedroom... *sigh*, now it's in the garage so HE can watch it while he's exercising!
Sounds as if you're both pretty lucky! Love the celtic piece; it looks like it was hard!
I think I need to rub Joe's head for luck!! Congrats... The wallhanging is awesome! Nice work.
Beautiful quilting!
They are both very pretty! Congrats on winning the tv!
Ahhh 'tis the luck of the Irish well done Joe.
Great siggy too.
Very pretty. It feels so good to sew the last stitch. Lucky hubby!!!
Friendly winds blowing your way! Enjoy the pretty wall hanging and the tv for a long long time...
Your Celtic wallhanging turned out great! I saw those patterns in an Irish quilt mag. at my JoAnn's. Interesting reading.
Congrats to Joe on the tv!
I LOVE that Dutch siggie. Could you email me her contact info, please? Thanks.
Congratulations on the new TV!!!! Your wallhanging looks wonderful. Great finish! Your signature blocks will make a wonderful quilt.
Take care!
Well done Joe! Is that the luck of the Irish at work? Your celtic wallhanging looks fantastic. Ann :-)

Congrats to Joe (and you) on the win....what a legend....winning something you can both share. Hugs Naomi
So funny that Joe won something for a change! LOL! Congrats!
Congratulations on your win! You will love it. My hubby and I sip our coffee and watch TV in the bedroom every morning. I love all of the sewing projects you do. They are so beautiful! I hope you and your family had a beautiful Easter. Thank you for your kind comments regarding Charli. She seems to be doing better now. I hope you have a great day and a lovely week. Enjoy your TV.
O Mickie! How wonderful about the tv. You are the first person I have EVER heard in my lifetime that actually won something!
Do you guys have little green leprechauns living with you????? ;)
Congratulations Joe on winning a TV for the bedroom!
Great finish. Can't wait to see your miniature house quilt when it is finished.
Lovely signature block. You're right, the Dutch boy and girl are adorable.
Only one UFO left to finish? Your name must be Wonderwoman....or else you are so organized and focused that you finish most projects before you start the next? Your wall hanging is very nice....I put my foot down years ago---no TV in the bedroom! But I'm weird anyway....Enjoy it!
congratulations on your tv win...It will be comfy cozy to kick back and watch a movie!
I love the finished quilt and only one UFO! YAY! I just have one left too and I hope to have zero forever when the one is done.....
The colors in your Celtic quilt are great -- so vibrant. They definitely fit your personality. Congratulations on winning the TV. Isn't it funny how much we enjoy the things we didn't think we needed?
