Purple Boxes

Started this a week ago and have it as a finished flimsy already. Not that I'm a fast, but that it wasn't a hard one to put together.


 Mainly worked on it Friday while watching the inauguration. Seeing how there was coverage all day I just kept the TV on and sew like crazy. Had to keep myself busy so I wouldn't throw something at the TV. I wish I could say I was uplifted by the new Pres. speech but it was quite the contrary. 


So this is what my RSC for this month looks like.
Of course Pete has to inspect too and I believe it passed.





In fact I think the yawning means he ready for a nap.



Last night I worked some on the current scarf on the loom.
Besides being OSU colors they are SF Giant's colors and that is my daughter's team. It gets cold in the summer there in the Bay Area.

    I love the way you say that you aren't that fast and here you are having produced this in just a few days I suspect, or even less! It is lovely, I like the way the squares interlock and overlap and the colours too. The mix of light and dark is lovely.

    It certainly looks very complex to me, amazing that you finished it so quickly. Great job!

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        ...

I have a lot of bird related patterns, especially ones that are chickens This quilt I made last year from a pattern in Quiltmania. Then here are a few more patterns I had and thought about doing.

Blake and Ben, my "little dudes" Can't believe it's been a year already. OK back to topic here.  A couple of years ago while at the Dallas Quilt show I purchased this pincushion.   I thought it was interesting but what I really wanted was the pattern. It came from a shop in Texas,...
