I've been very slowly working on Jen Kingwell's LongTime Gone BOM quilt. I joined the BOM last year and you know how that goes! I had the best of intentions! The BOM included fabric and they are super scrappy. Very much outside my comfort zone and I can't say I haven't completely given up on trying to make things look planned. The fabric selection, however, is so scrappy and diverse that I've had to give much of that up. Here is my progress so far:
Murphy has settled in nicely. He is beyond spoiled but just look at that face! He loves to ride in the car, bark, lick and play. He's just turned 5 months old and is doing well with training.
I hope all your stitches are happy ones!
Happy Mothers Day!

I love this quilt!! If you're out of your comfort zone, it sure doesn't show. Gorgeous! I do love this one. Hope to see more of this one! Your fur baby Murphy is just so cute. I bet he's loving being spoiled. :D

Look at him! So sweet.
And what an adventure with the quilt ...
You have some pretty neat fabrics in that quilt. It looks really neat.
Murphy is so precious!
Your quilt blocks look great. Murphy is adorable.
Jackie, I love your quilt blocks. They are awesome and you are doing a wonderful job. Do you hand quilt? I look forward to seeing more.
Murphy is such a cutie! It does look like he is smiling and having a good time. RJ @stitching friends forever 2
look at that big boy riding in the basket - posing for his photo opp and being still for 2 seconds - HOW FUN! he is sure A-dorable! WOW - the quilt is so cool Jackie. I see lots of fun elements in those blocks but that's why I'm not a quilter because I would simply analyze to death what fabric to put next to what fabric. The only creative freedom I allow myself is rug hooking otherwise my needlework world is very regimented - this color goes here and that color goes there. I very rarely ever change a single color in a chart. I am getting pretty brave about changing linen colors. Hope you had a great Mothers Day ! Mel
Looks like fun to work with all those different fabrics. No room to get bored! The blocks look great.
And Murphy is one adorable doggie!
Great blocks Jackie!
Random scrappy is not easy for me either, you pulled these fabrics together so nicely. Murphy is adorable!
Wow, I love the scrappy fabrics that you use for this quilt. And these blocks are really awesome. Looking forward to seeing more of this quilt.
The quilt is looking beautiful, and what a cute little dog you have!
Such bright, happy blocks, Jackie! You must smile each time you walk into your craft room and glance at your design wall :)
And how cute is Murphy--oh, that sweet face. I would find it hard to discipline that one :)
Murphy is adorable!!! Your quilt is coming out beautifully, such happy colors!! I can't wait to see it all completed. Mary@stitchingfriendsfover2

Your quilting is looking beautiful Jackie. I think you're doing a great job!
Murphy is adorable.
I always marvel at your eye for fabric combinations in your beautiful quilting... And, I particularly love your Christmas in Chalk ornaments... I may even try stitching on the dark grey linens.....
Love all the quilt blocks and your last picture is just adorable.
