Today I am one of the bloggers participating in the Monthly Color Challenge - Spicy hosted by Jen at Patterns by Jen. February is Bay Leaf, a mix of light and dark green in a fast strip pieced block. I did the six inch block, and it is very important to be accurate in your …
Sunday Chat
This past week was spent out of town dealing with some family things. It was a tiring week and I am happy to be back home. But, I don't have a post for you as I haven't had any time to do anything fun or even to do any writing. So, to have something for …
Comedy of Quilty Errors
The challenge in our guild this year is to make a small quilt with the theme of Celebration for our guild's 40th anniversary year. These little quilts will be displayed in March for National Quilting Day on the third Saturday. We are provided with a fat quarter of the challenge fabric with the instruction to …
Sunday Chat
We were housebound for four days this past week, which meant a lot of projects were either finished or new ones begun. A few Zoom calls took up a bit of time, and I got a bit more progress on the epic historical novel I'm currently reading. Just before the snow started, I got this …
Snowy Sew Days
It has been a productive week of sewing, and I still have today and tomorrow to play. We were housebound from the snow until late Wednesday, and I was excited that I'd be able to get out and go to our guild meeting. Then the guild meeting was canceled, as there were still icy side …
Fun with Snow Days
Waking up on Sunday to a winter wonderland, the entire scene had a blue cast to it with heavy overcast skies in the weak dawn light. The snow was still falling as I took some photos, and it continued falling on and off all day. Big fat flakes alternated with tiny ones. It was freezing …
Sunday Chat
This week was one of those kinds of weeks, where it seemed like I should have gotten more done with the time I had. I did have a couple of meetings, but those were short. The zoom class on Wednesday was fun, and I think all the participants enjoyed it. I did manage to get …
One More Safelight Quilt
This week has seen a bit more sewing than usual, which has been nice for a change. I worked on the next Safelight quilt, and got it mostly done. The blocks I had left were all kinds of themes and colors, but the beauty of this block is all work well together. I put my …
Finishing the Rainbow Quilt
When I left off showing this rainbow quilt for Safelight, I had the top assembled and ready to go on the longarm. Every one of these blocks was sent in by readers. Thank you for your support of this project. So, now I need a backing. I had this fabulous shooting star fabric, and I …
Sunday Chat
It seems like it has been forever since we had a nice Sunday chat, so settle in for a long post today. I got more done on the Safelight quilts, and delivered three of them to the guild meeting this past week. I'll show you the finish on the rainbow quilt this week. Early mornings …
