Here is a mock up of one of the 17 table toppers I'm making for DD Elaine's husband's brother's wedding on May 4th. That is a lot of nouns for one sentence, don't you think?
Pieces and parts for Jewel Box blocks--the April UFO--ready to be fed under the needle.
Layout for a table runner for the soon-to-be-wedded mentioned above. Since this photo the blocks have been sewn together, and borders and backing selected. This needs to get done in a hurry!
Finally, I get to share a FINISH! I put in the last of the hand quilting stitches on the plane from Louisville to Las Vegas. This is my version of Lori's (Humble Quilts) Strawberry Fields quiltalong from a couple of years ago.
My stitches are not small but I tried to at least make them uniform. Someday I will have to learn to use a hoop and a thimble. But I am very happy to have this little project, which I call Patriotic Fields, ready to decorate my table or wall for the appropriate holidays. See more Design Walls on Judy's Patchwork Times.

Congratulations on the amazing finish! The quilting looks fabulous!
So many projects in the works! The finished quilt is beautiful. I always love the look of hand quilting. It makes a quilt seem special.
You have been very busy! Love your finish -such a pretty design. Good luck and Godspeed on the table stoppers. There is nothing like a deadline to spur productivity. LOL
Gosh - another wedding! Must be a big group for so many of those gorgeous table toppers, Annie! Love your finish, too!

I like the jewel box project. Pretty colours!

Congrats on the finish, Strawberry Fields is beautiful. Lots going on in your sewing room, looks like fun.
I am envious that you have a finish! It is something I have not had in a while! It is a lovely quilt. You are one busy girl, so many things on your plate. Love the table runner.
LOVE your finished quilt and hand quilted, wonderful! Man o man, that's a whole lot o' table toppers to get done. Love the one you are making for the happy couple, can't wait to see it finished.
Wow you have so much going on, I love the quilts. Hand stitching was something I loved to do but alas my fingers can't do it anymore. Your stitches are great!!
