http://blocksnswaps.blogspot.com/2011/07/liberated-checkerboard-block.html
Free Patterns from Sophie Junction. Quilt Block Patterns, Project Tutorials and Quilting Tips. Friday, July 01, 2011. This liberated variation of the classic 16-patch block is easy to cut and sew . . . as long as you take care to keep things organized. The blocks are made two-at-a time, beginning with 2 large squares. The finished size of your liberated checkerboard block will be 2-to-2 1/2 inches smaller than the these squares. Create the checkboard by swaping top and bottom fabrics of every other piece.

Goals for 2014 – Plan and Stitch from Stash – Brooklyn In Stitches
https://brooklyninstitches.wordpress.com/2014/01/18/goals-for-2014-plan-and-stitch-from-stash
Exploring the ART of embroidery. January 18, 2014. Goals for 2014 – Plan and Stitch from Stash. Just before the new year, I stumbled across a post from Ali Edwards about One Little Word http:/ aliedwards.com/2013/12/one-little-word-2014.html. Basically, the concept is to pick one word that will become your mantra for the year or to quote Ali “You live with it. You invite it into you life. You let it speak to you. You might even follow where it leads. There are so many possibilities. Fill in your details ...

New Goals for 2015 – Brooklyn In Stitches
https://brooklyninstitches.wordpress.com/2015/02/20/new-goals-for-2015
Exploring the ART of embroidery. February 20, 2015. New Goals for 2015. I can’t believe it has been a year since i posted. Maybe short and sweet is a better way for me to keep up with this post. Today, it is freezing cold outside – reportedly -15 windchill. I think I will stay indoors today and hopefully stitch. Looking back on my 2014 stitching goals, I did finish one very big project – Dorothy Walpole from Scarlet Letter. 40 ct Lambswool with GAST. Thanks for stopping by! Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

piece and quilt: Magnolia
http://pieceandquilt.blogspot.com/2012/04/magnolia.html
A journey in making cloth. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. My mother grew up in Brooklyn. Every spring as we walked past her elementary school on the way to mine we noted the stately magnolias. Twenty-four years ago, the local nursery delivered a balled and burlapped magnolia to the curb in front of my house. I wrestled the heavy sapling into my son's little red wagon and we pulled it down the driveway to the far corner of the backyard. It was to be the first garden project of many.

piece and quilt: A Ray of Sunshine - Award!
http://pieceandquilt.blogspot.com/2012/04/ray-of-sunshine-award.html
A journey in making cloth. Tuesday, April 24, 2012. A Ray of Sunshine - Award! I've been noticing birds all day. Robins hopping on my lawn, pigeons trying to land in the oddest places, a pair of ducks bathing in a very large puddle in the park, cardinals arguing, sparrows taking dust baths and raucous jays. When I opened my inbox this evening, I discovered that someone whose quilts I admire and whose blog I follow, nominated me for a Sunshine Award. To see what the award was ab. Go see for yourself.

piece and quilt: September 2011
http://pieceandquilt.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
A journey in making cloth. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. Because I had to retake HS geometry, I have always considered myself mathematically challenged. No more. After more than several decades I remembered enough to draw a 5 sided polygon and segment it into rays. Here's a peek at the progress I've made so far on my 20 by 20 piece for the Brooklyn Quilt Guild's 2011 Botany Challenge due the third week in October.
