And Denise is sending me one- Thanks!

I just need 1 more now!

I un-earthed the Siggy Squares I got at the Small Town Quilt Show in Midway, Utah last June and finally got the corners sewn on.

Since watching that YouTube from Missouri Star Quilts HERE

I've re-thought the layout ideas I've had.

I need  3 more to make this even 10 x 9 = 90 Siggies

I wonder who I can get to send me a Siggy???

Any of my Blog readers want to send me one?

 It just needs to be a 4.5" square of White Kona written on the diagonal 

with your Name, Location and the year.

It's helpful to know your favorite color for the corners.

I played with my Siggy Squares on my Design Wall this AM. 

I think I like it.

I'm late in Posting because I had to run an errand with these nice Sisters today.

We went to Yakima.  

Had to show them where the BEST Hamburger is...

Minors!!!

I could only eat Half and we shared an order of the Yummy Fries.

I got the borders sewn on FINALLY!

  This flimsy is ready now for the quilting!

I put this one #1 on my Goals for this month.

My Decorations for the Trunk or Treak

The rain let up just long enough for us to enjoy a bit of fun with the kids in costumes!

Glow in the Dark stars on a black piece of knit fabric clipped to the Trunk.

My 2 Grandsons pose with us for a Picture.

One is a Camo/Bow hunter, the younger one is a  Firefighter

Paul got off work in time to come to hand out the candy.  

He's a "Candy Eater" (aka: NO costume)

I wore a bandand with my engineer hat and Sheriff's badge.  

If I'd worn a quilt for a cape I could have been the Quilt Police, LOL

I'm holding a Skeleton head that lights up with changing colors.

It was a gift from Grandson in Kennewick.  Thanks To him!

I had put these Word Play letters re-arranged on a design board to take to the Trunk or Treak.

Opps... I left the board on the back porch.

SHAMELESS PLUG TIME...

Voting has begun for the Blogger's Quilt Festival. 

My "Midnight Flight" is HERE  

Diamonds & Rubies" is  HERE

I appreciate any votes you want to give me.

Still working on the "Easy Street Mystery.  It's slow going with the other things I am working on that can't be shown on the BLOG at Christmas time.  I have to put in my shameless plug HERE.  I emailed a picture to Bonnie Hunter on Friday and she blogged about me in her Quiltcam on Saturday.  That was fast!!! Here is my Easy Street pieces that are done so far.  I saw one link-up that was guessing a possible block layout. Here's my Guess...

AND Part 3 on the cutting mat - ready to sew this week in my spare time.  It's Quilt Guild and Daughters of Utah Pioneers week, plus Army Boy is in Wyoming and soon on his way home. I need to get my voice back.  I missed Church because I couldn't talk Sunday morning. They guy that called to talk to DH yesterday said I was a BASS. I haven't sewn much since I got home.  I'm playing catch-up with laundry and un-packing.  The trees are awaiting their decorations.

  
Here are some of the 'Siggy' Squares with the corners sewn on that I've collected this year. The 3 on the top row are from my Trip to Colorado last week.  I noticed that the two in the middle are the same print in two color-ways. Of course I had to include Tula pink fabric on her 'siggy'.
