Hey it’s Summer


 Wow has it been hot here these past few weeks. Yucky……

I don’t know about you but I’m a cool weather girl, me and heat struggle to be together. I’m getting more like myself in all ways these days which means I’m can tolerate some humidity but still limits my time to be outside and active.

Which means I have been doing more inside. 

Since I haven’t posted anything since March, it’s about time I do.

Since the last post I have had a few quilts machined quilted and have been working on bindings.


The Peace quilt has been finished and given to its new owner.



Turned out so cool. Love it.


It will be loved and used

Then another quilt that was in the group of tops that were quilted is from Laundry Basket .

This one I had finished a few years ago and it’s nice to be now working on the binding. 


Here it is being trimmed up to have the binding attached which is what I am in the process of doing 




This quilt is for me and will be another addition to my Christmas quilts collection.  I’ll show more pictures after I get the binding on. 

I have another quilt by Laundry Basket that I’m been wanting to start, so as soon as this done I’ll be starting that.



I’m still plugging along on my sister’s quilt 




Have one more pieced block to make and then add the green frame for the rest made.

And then on to all the filling blocks.

Just slow and steady.


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. 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        ...

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...
