HandmadeBits4U: July 2013
http://handmadebits4u.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Jul 28, 2013. What do you get when you mix light showers, dirt, and an overly active furball? The answer: one drenched, muddy, yet very content fur ball! While finishing up some yard work during very light showers, Rusty managed to find multiple spots to dig in and within a matter of seconds, yes seconds, he turned into this. His paws and legs and muzzle magically turned from apricot to black! Oh the joys of our 4 legged friends. Thanks for stopping by. Inquisitive four legged friends. Links to this post.

HandmadeBits4U: August 2013
http://handmadebits4u.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Aug 19, 2013. Another Quilt Top Finished. It's always good to finish the piecing on a quilt top. This full-sized quilt top is the Easy Hex pattern from Gudrun Erla's (G.E. Designs). Big Blocks Big Style book. Gudrun was the guest designer at Quilt Cove's. 2012 Fall Retreat and that is where I started this top. How I ever managed to get Rusty to pose so nicely in front of the quilt is beyond me. I think it was simply my lucky day! But that snow will be flying before we know it! Thanks for stopping by.

The Irish Chain: McCall's Quick quilts
http://irishchain.blogspot.com/2012/04/mccalls-quick-quilts.html
Monday, April 9, 2012. A couple of markets ago, I was in the McCall's quilting magazines booth and one of the ladies there said to another, " oh, you need to meet Sandi, she's one of our designers." I felt like I had 'arrived'. One of THEIR designers, it was cool. Also, McCall's asked me to post the following note and link about a contest that looks exciting! Time is short but you never know, some of you may work better under pressure! I can't enter, bummer. Grand prizes this year include a sewing machin...

Sunday, May 8, 2011. Even if you're not a mom, you probably nurture someone in some way so that counts in my book. Baby Evelyn was helping me quilt one day a couple of weeks ago. At 14 weeks her little arms aren't quite coordinated enough to grab things and they're too short to touch what shouldn't be touched. However, we won't be quilting together much like this, I loose a bit of coordination holding her and the quilt. Have a blessed Sunday and happy quilting! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, October 14, 2011. I've been neglecting my blog. It's quilt market time and I've been sewing nonstop. The quilt pictured is one I've done for Blank Quilting Fabrics. Funny thing is that another designer did a quilt that is the same style; applique medallion center, set on point, border and pieced border. Great minds think alike! Anyway, I'm working on another one in the same fabrics plus a lot(! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm still working on this, heheheh. View my complete profile.

Saturday, April 30, 2011. Hello from the sweatshop. OK, It's not that bad but. Have you ever heard that song, "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead"? I'm kind of feeling that way right now. The Int'l Quilt Market is just a week and a half away. So, I thought I'd take a break and show you a few pictures of quilts that I've done for market. These three were done for Timeless Treasures Fabrics (TT) and will be displayed in their booth. I'm working on a pine tree pattern using my Quilted Jewels template set. I'll be...

Tuesday, May 1, 2012. Sorry, I'm a little late this morning for the blog tour. I've been sewing like crazy getting ready for quilt market! When I did my block I sent 2 in, the one you see in the magazine and the one here. (Sorry for the fuzzy picture! I'm going to make a bed size quilt when time allows! I've enjoyed seeing all the blocks since the first magazine came out and what an honor to be in it again! Good luck to all that enter! Http:/ www.quiltmaker.com/blogs/quiltypleasures/.

Thursday, May 7, 2015. Hello Blog Tour Attendees! First, I'd like to say thank you. I know that all of us designers are so grateful for your support. As you can see, I haven't written a blog in a couple of years. I guess life gets in the way and priorities change. Want to see pictures of my adorable grand children? I tend toward instant gratification, like the FB page, you can look for The Irish Chain there. Later this summer, I'll be rebuilding my web site, finally! Enjoy the tour and have a blessed day!
