Category: Block of the Month
Well, my goodness, things are festive at my house about now! I am planning on spending the day making cookies. Yesterday I took Grandpa for a hair cut in town, and when I got him settled back home, he smiled at me and said "So, what are we gonna to do tomorrow?", like we were […]
All I want to do these days is sew. I don't even need a deadline or a project with a near finish. Just let me sew. Production sewing is just fine. 435 half square triangles? No problem, I'm your girl. I have finished four rows of Lori Holt's Row Along and I like it just […]
I've been on a business trip, and this was the view from my hotel room. Seriously. I'm home and I'm pooped, but I will post again a bit later to tell you more about my experience! Anyone recognize where I've been?
I finished Block 4 of the 2011 Designer Mystery BOM. Thanks so much to Sinta for hosting this BOM Rehab Monday! I am getting so many things done thanks to this program. In fact, this should be a week full of good posts from me, as I had an extremely productive weekend. It is amazing […]
I surely seem to be obsessed with my Fig Tree stash lately. Am I in danger of Figging Out? Well, wigging out maybe, but not due to my total immersion in this pretty fabric. So far, these lovely soft tones are just what I need to soothe my my raggedy psyche. I finished up three […]
Hey, everyone, how is your week going? My Wednesday was a lot better than the earlier part of the week, that's for sure. I finally said "No" to a commitment that has been making me unhappy and stressing me out, and I feel as if the weight of the world has been lifted off my […]
Honestly, without Sinta's BOM Rehab program, this Designer Mystery BOM would still be languishing in its project box. I am delighted to say that I have now completed the twelth and last block! Woo hoo! Now the next step is to cut out and start constructing the lattice, which appears pretty simple. This is where […]
Back on track this week with the BOM Rehab, I am happy to say! I finished Block Eleven of the Peace on Earth Designer Mystery BOM over the weekend. That project is definitely coming together and all that will remain will be the lattice, which involves a star pattern and is awfully pretty. I've been […]
Luckily this block was the easiest thing in the world to make, or I probably would have missed the BOM Rehab deadline today! Well, it is still Monday where I live, and I did come in just under the wire. I was wrong about the name of this collection of fabric in a previous post. […]
What a glorious weekend we had here in my little neck of the woods. Perfect weather in all ways. A little work, a little play, some family time, some sewing, and some good food. I got the binding on my T is for Thelma Schnibble and you can see it all pretty on my kitchen […]
