Disappointment

 I wrote my post this morning with plans of getting a couple of things done in the sewing room. Just did not go as planned. My focus was just not there. I would start with a task and then get sidetracked with something else. Example I was going to work on the Sisters in Scriptures block, then I realize that I had to make copies of the pattern for the ladies, so I proceeded to make copies on the copy machine. While doing that I was in the spare room when I thought about some fabric I had and figured it was in here somewhere. An hour later, no fabric but did get the copies made.
Went back to making the block, this is  the Afflicted Women or also known as Veronica   

OK that's done, believed I could finish working on Morris Meadow.
No, I get a phone call that I ended up having to go take care of.
Get back and had to go feed the cows since I put it off so I could a ton done in the sewing room, 
yea right

There is always tomorrow, God willing.

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. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

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 cott
