Finially, fingers crossed

Now I just love having the Internet and all but I am having troubles with the server or something and I am so frustrated I could spit nails.

I have been trying to post this since last night.

So I am making it quick just in case I lose my signal again.

I was not able to get all I hoped to but I did pretty well.

I was able to finish adding the circles and bottom leaves (?) but did not get the last 2 birds on. Now I can start stitching those down.

I was able to finish the yellow circles and glue baste them on. Now I am ready to stitch this block.

And I did finish the snowman block. The cutest. My daughters have seen me work on this and they all have put in their requests, 3 daughters and one quilt, what is a mother suppose to do.

I ran out of time and I did not get the pattern drawn (?) for my Vintage Garden quilt.

Maybe this weekend. Today our stitch group meets so I'll get busy on what I have prepared.

Fingers crossed, that this goes out to y'all.

Till next time

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall.

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies. I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl c...
