Taking a Break

Hello everyone.  I am going to be taking a bit of a blogging break, at least over the summer.  I have some responsibilities that are going to need my complete attention for awhile.  I may post sporadically, but not with the regularity of the past.  Thanks for checking in with me! Do come back and […]

ABB

That would be All But Binding. It is hanging on the back of the Waiting for Bindings Chair.  I'll get it done by the deadline!  My red and white Gentle Arts spools block quilt (not bowties) by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co., is the May choice in the Vintage Schnibble of the Month program hosted by […]

How To Do the Wiggle Stitch

Every time I mention the Wiggle Stitch, someone asks me what it is and how to do it.  I have posted on the topic before, so I hope those of you who visit here regularly aren't bored with the subject. First of all, this stitch undoubtedly has a proper name, but I don't know what […]

Typepad Issues

Typepad seems to be having issues.  You may not be able to leave comments.  Thanks for stopping by anyway!

Double X

Yes, this block is named Double X.   I should have had a clue, since that is the name of the pattern in the APQ magazine, but who pays attention to those things, right?  Traditionally, I believe this block is made with three fabrics, one for the red, one for the block background and one for […]

The Thread

My book club meets this Friday and I am scrambling to finish this month's selection.  The book is titled "The Thread" by Victoria Hislop, and I am enjoying it quite a bit.  The story begins in Greece in 1917 and the plot continues up until the present.  It is a wonderful story about love and […]

Spools Wrap Up

Thelma reminded me that we haven't officially wrapped up our Summer of Spools Sew Along! Thelma, Lisa and I had such a fun time making our versions and so enjoyed seeing some of yours.  But there is still a parade to have and prizes to give out!  We can't forget the most important part of […]

Thanks

                                    That was fun!  Thanks so much for attending my Stash Sale and helping me spread out the fabric love.

Squeezin’ In A Little Sewing

You probably can't tell, but these are fall themed zippy eyeglass cases.  I am trying to get a jump on my next "color story" for my little bags that my son in law sells in his wine tasting room.  Love these fun fabrics by Sandy Gervais.  It was a fall collection she came out with […]

BOM Rehab Monday

This is all I have to show for myself.  One block.  The lower one in red, yellow and green.  All I have been doing lately is working or chasing after the baby.  I got up at 6:00 AM on Sunday morning and staggered down to the studio to make the third block in the Designer […]
