Slow Sunday

I'm having a wonderful Sunday.
 How about you?
It started by going out to the garden to do some weeding and picking a few vegetables that had ripen. 


And just a daily go around and check on how everything is doing.
This is the time when I see all that still needs to be done so I plan out what I'll do next. There is always something to do.

The squash that was planted on Thursday is already up. 

The heat or should I say the humidity is something else today. 

Wasn't able to stay out as late as I would've liked, but it was plenty long enough. 

Been spenting the rest of my day sewing, working on my Curvy Log Cabin.


Decided to make mine a twins size which means, needed to increase the amount of blocks from what the pattern saids. 


Also decided assembly line sewing would be the way to go, doing 40 blocks at a time. 
Woohoo!

Then later after dinner I'll do some piecework, maybe knitting just to add variety to my day.

    I love log cabin quilts and am curious to see what a curvy log cabin will look like. ;-)

Countdown to Autumn. 18 days

  After some thought I came up with a general "get to" list for a pre - Autumn preparation. I had mentioned a couple in the last post. I will keep those and have added a few more. I needed to remind myself that a lot of my ideas are a little premature hance the pre autumn and will be better done next month. So here is what I came up with... Deep cleaning is still on Planning activity for next month Decorating inside and out.   Making a fall outfit, sewing and knitting Find some new recipes to try Make a pair of fall or Halloween socks I will be focus on journaling with Autumn being the present subject.  Making sourdough bread again This one I have already started, Watching a cozy, feel good show. So "the man of the place" and are rewatching PBS All Creatures Great and Small. In a matter of a couple days we have watched season 1.

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        ...
