I realised that I never did share with you all a picture of my second Pineneedles complete arrangement :) It is called A Season in Time and it is by McKenna Ryan.I personally call this quilt "Joe's Heaven" after my step-father who passed away over 10 years ago. He was an avid outdoors-man and just loved nature. When I finished the top of this quilt I stood back from it and said to myself "Oh wouldn't Joe have just been in heaven to be in this scene." Since then I have called it "Joe's Heaven" and I wouldn't part with this quilt for the world :)
You can see the first complete arrangement Petals From the Heart and my favorite tools and stuff here.
I also have all the patterns and a lot of fabric to do “Rhythm of the Sea.” I have some of the patterns traced and some of the fusing done but that is as far as I've gotten in it :) I am on a UFO kick right now so I think that finishing that quilt may be in my very near future. I find that these quilts take a while to collect all the fabric for and trace the patterns. Once you get a couple of blocks done though you pick up momentum and I find that I jst can't leave it alone until it is finished. I am hoping that this is what will happen to me again :)
I have been working on my Christmas Sweatshirt Jacket and working on a post to explain my method of doing them. Hopefully I will get that finished in the next few days.
As always, if you have any comments or sujestion please feel free to post them here and I will try to answer them :)

Beautiful piece. Do you iron on, or actually applique all the little bits? I always wonder with these patterns. I know my patience would not countenance the applique! =)
Hi Susan;
The pieces are fused on then stitched down with monofilament thread. These are not needle turn pieces but rather raw edge applique. HTH
Do you still have the pattern for Time to Play? I'm looking for a copy and can't find one anywhere!
