And no – they don’t have anything to do with each other!
Got some bee blocks done recently:
For Linda and 12Squared:
And for John and Bee Imaginative.
And to wrap up, you’ve all met my cats before, but not my dogs. I was able to snap a particularly good photo of them this weekend, so I thought I’d [...]
Put this little house up on Flickr yesterday (for the Bee Imaginative bee) and people seem to like it so I thought I’d pop it up over here on the blog too.
Yes, Mr. Gnome IS off gathering more mushrooms while deer & birdie wait for him at home. He’ll be back soon. [...]
With the Block Party quilt along about to get started and all of the new bees popping up over in the flickr group, I’ve had bees on the brain!
I made two more blocks for 12 Squared:
The request was any sort of block you want. Was tough to decide but there’s a lot more fabric [...]
Some very happy news out of my world today!
I’m thrilled to announce that I will be writing a book with Kristen, my co-host of Block Party and we are so excited.
C & T Publishing will publish it and it’s going to be about YOU! Ok, well, maybe not you specifically, but about all of us: [...]
Some blocks for two of the bees I’m in…
Some wonky stars for 12 Squared.
and some houses for Sew Connected 2! You’ve seen the dog before, it’s just taken me forever to get to making the second little house. Let’s pretend that the wind blew the roof to one side a bit.
Happy weekend!
Like coming home to a huge box of batting.
Oh batting! You have such potential…
Or actually having a little something going on on the design wall…
Progress on blocks for one of the bees I’m in.
On a completely different topic…. A couple of you have mentioned Project Runway so I thought I would clarify. This season [...]
I’ve been getting lots of sewing details out of the way recently.
I made a cute sample quilt for my class later this month.
It’s little – 24″ x 36″ and makes me realize I need to branch out in my quilting more. I love the texture all these straight lines give it.
Also stitching up labels… [...]
The quilt that I made with all of the women involved in Block Party, a virtual quilting bee, is finished and it’s beautiful!
Each and every block in this quilt is perfect.
Right?? I’m so lucky this is mine.
If you click through to this photo on flickr, you can see a collage with a photo of each [...]
I’m in love with my Block Party quilt!
The top is all finished…
…and I’ve been quilting away.
I should be done soon!
Is what my weekend sewing was filled with!
I pulled fabrics for a new quilt. I’ve decided to completely indulge my love of red & aqua. I haven’t made a full quilt in only those colors before, so it’s time!
Then I got started on some blocks!
I got a fat quarter of the amazing Paint By Number [...]
