1930's Farmers Wife Sampler

Last Tuesday was the 30's club at Sager Creek Quilt Shop and was the first meeting where we are starting  Laurie Aaron Hird's Farmers Wife 1930 Sampler and here is our fist 5 blocks


We had twice as many attending, then we had before and it was wonderful. 


The ones who's been attending this year were ready with their RSC15 blocks they made for the past months. 







This quilt is one of our past 30's quilt.
Eiko made it like just the pattern.
Very beautiful isn't it. 


Now I have finished mine and it is almost finished quilted but I changed it a little. Instead of the floral basket and went with a row of cottages.


I going to add clouds and I'm thinking of clumps of grass beneath the the houses and in-between.
Then it will be done.


I just love the look of hand quilting...... especially on the back.

    What a great idea to do the Farmer's Wife quilt as a group. And what beautiful blocks you're all making!

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        ...
