Just another WordPress.com site. Monthly Archives: October 2014. October 29, 2014. I am finally making progress on the finishing touches on French Circles. I put a quarter inch black trim around the French newsprint. I think it has brightened up the quilt top considerably. I also like the black polka-dotted border which pretty neatly ties the whole thing together. The back is well on its way too so I am hoping to finish soon! French Circles top is done! October 22, 2014. More from festival photos! Though...

Just another WordPress.com site. Monthly Archives: March 2015. My Favorite Shopping Bag. March 27, 2015. Just a quick post to show off the cute bag I whipped up this afternoon. I picked up the awesome elephant fabric at an estate sale last weekend. The elephants are felted. I made it reversible with a teal and brown plaid on the inside and a contrasting pocket. I am going to make another and then donate them to the guild for the quilt show silent auction. Come on, you know you want some too! My mother ha...

My Favorite Shopping Bag. March 27, 2015. I made a couple of these bags for myself several years ago from an Ikea curtain I found at Goodwill for $2. I still use them every time I shop. I found the pattern at sawdustgirl.com in a post from 5/16/2011. Come on, you know you want some too! They are adorable AND functional!

Just another WordPress.com site. Monthly Archives: September 2014. September 28, 2014. I have finally got back into the quilting groove after taking a month off for road trips and family projects. This week I managed to get a table cloth quilted. The top was made by my sister and I used an old tablecloth I got from Goodwill for a couple bucks on the back. No batting was used. I think it looks great on my kitchen table. Perfect for the season. Fall tablecloth. Thanks Kathy! A peek at the back. Just anothe...

I have never been before so it will be a great adventure! You are comm...

Just another WordPress.com site. One of those days! March 21, 2015. Have you ever had one of those days where nothing goes as planned? Yep, that was me today. I had great intentions of getting lots of sewing done, as well as starting laundry and making a run to the grocery store. Nope, not one of those things happened. After the fall…. She got her first ambulance ride, which she described as very bumpy! It’s hell to get old, I tell ya! Anyway, her fabric was the $12/yd. Variety and I scored tons of 3...

Just another WordPress.com site. Monthly Archives: November 2014. November 20, 2014. So the last few weeks have been extremely busy. My sister was out from Iowa for a week. We had a great time running around the suburbs on a shop hop, which included an Ugly Sweater contest. She tried to get me to participate, but alas, I couldn’t find an appropriate outfit. She, on the other hand, was spectacular! She actually won a gift certificate at one of the stores for her get-up! Kathy and her Ugly Christmas Sweater.
