Snow is the big news.......... from Exuberant Color

Yesterday there was a little snow on the ground when I got up and it was light snow in the beginning. This photo is from 10 yesterday morning. By noon there was heavier snow. By afternoon, there was a break in the storm and we were under that area.

This photo was at 6:30 last night when we had around 6" of snow. On Chicago news they said my town had 7.2". The snow total for a day in November may be broken in Chicago's records.

I spent the day sewing the columns and then sewing them ...

UFO Day from Quarter-Inch Capers

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday. I enjoyed mine, but I know any thing that involves a lot of family can be tricky to navigate sometimes. I ate leftovers again today, and I still have more left! I left most of the leftover food with the kids, so I don’t have too many to eat myself.

I did some online shopping on Friday and then designated the rest of the day “UFO Day”. I had found the quilt top I pieced on my last quilting cruise, and it was almost finished except for one of the pieced borders.

When ...

Under the Needle: November from Lovin' Life At The End Of The Dirt Road

I'm trying to be extra cognizant of the days in hopes that they won't whizz by so quickly. It's not working. LOL. What's a girl to do? I'll just keep being grateful for and finding joy in each one. DH was away tending to our cows at the end of October and into November and I don't sleep well when he's not here so I filled the pre-dawn and post-sunset hours by stitching, resulting

Community Quilts from Karin from Jo's Country Junction

This is my last installment of Community quilts from Karin. Well, I shouldn’t say that. Karin will continue doing quilts. I just finally got to the end of the emails in the recent mass sending from her. I love getting emails with finished community quilts. I’m happy I’ve finally worked my way through them. Knowing …

CROSS CUTTING A QUILT from Kwilty Pleasures

As usual I'm catching up with all my blog posts.

I still blog after 12 years, because its my personal journey.

Today I'm sharing a fun post about an inspiration I saw on Pinterest.

It began with a PINTEREST pic, of course,

CROSSCUT. A word, a photo, that caught my eye

And it all felt a bit wonky!

Thanks to

A Quilter’s Table

I was inspired to give it a try!

So to begin…blocks are made the same

BUT

For two different designs,

A traditional and a more modern

Or wonky design.

The layouts were the ...

Another Week Gone from Quilting My Way

Today, I was able to sleep a little bit, but was surprised Patrick was up since we usually sleep in on Saturdays. Not today. Even I didn't sleep as late as I usually do.

I played my games, then Debbie came over to show me her quilt with her grandson's photos. It's really cool. Then I was back on the games.

After supper I called mom again. When I tried earlier in the morning, she wasn't up. It took till 10:30 before she was up. She said she didn't sleep very well last night ...

Beginner sampler from Stitching Matters

This was from a brand-new quilter who finished her very first class sampler. She constantly apologised for mistakes, which I honestly overlooked. I regret not having kept my beginner quilt so I could show them what mistakes really looked like. Especially my free-motion quilting. My first feathers looked like tree stumps.

Over the River / Two Finishes / Pieced Backing from Grandma's Red Needle

After long last, 'Over the River and Through the Woods' is ready for quilting!

I ran into a little problem when I assembled the stitchery and blocks

The stitcheries should have matched the two rows of blocks to 36.5", but did not. It was about 1/2 - 3/4 inches shorter on each side (see photo above). I couldn't do anything about the row of blocks; they were the right size; 6.5" by 36.5". I had to extend each side of the stitcheries by stitching the trees to fit the exact size.

Well, I can't ...

Camp Kintail Retreat Report from The Cozy Quilter

This post features my projects from last weekend's Crafters retreat at Camp Kintail, but first I want to show you my finished Fall cross stitch...TaDa! I started this project at the beginning of September and have added stitches to it steadily until this week, when I added the last few. As I have said before, I love the transparency where the trees overlap and the bright colours in this picture. I will have it framed shortly and hang it up for the Fall next year. I have a couple of embroidery kits that I would like to work ...

February and March Quilts 2025 from Swooze's Quilts and Tall Tales

When I looked through photos I was surprised to see only two tops. These are both from my Running Doe top-a-long with Villa Rosa patterns.

February’s entry is Lanterns

March’s entry was Transport.

I really thought back and wondered why I hadn’t produced more. But when you see the upcoming finishes know that I was probably piecing those a good bit in these months!

i hope everyone that celebrates had a good thanksgiving holiday. No one went away hungry!

The Quilts Keep Coming! from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

I hope all of you who celebrate, had a nice Thanksgiving. Arthur and I enjoyed a quiet day snuggling on the sofa streaming Stranger Things from the beginning.

It was nice to relax....

Still looking through my older photos finding pictures of quilts I haven't shared yet. This fabulous RWB quilt top came from Joni. I think she also sent in the backing. We have been scouring all the quilt tops we have to get all the patriotic ones done so we can start putting together tops from our RWB block drive. I have volunteers sorting them into color ...

Quilting Laurel Ridge from The Knitting Quilter

For a few days, I did nothing but cook, clean and eat! I suppose that's a sign of having a good Thanksgiving. We hosted dinner but we only had a total of 8 people so it wasn't so bad. My daughter's boyfriend's mom joined us this year and it was a pleasure to have her! Anyways, I wanted to get back to my projects so I practiced my pantograph and actually started to stitch it yesterday. This is called Acadia Feather by Bethanne Nemesh. A single row is 13.5" wide. I purchased the paper pantograph ...

Saturday Sparks Link Party 696 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 696!

Starting off today's party with the beginnings of a new hand embroidery project!

Now that the Christmas countdown has started, this sweet reindeer was calling my name.

Each and every stitch is like therapy for the soul.

The pattern is by The Hoop in Hand on Etsy.

I will share again, once finished.

Playing with Piecing from Gene Black an Alabama Artist

I have started playing with some pieces and creating a new art quilt. Not sure if it will be this orientation or maybe landscape. This is only part of it - I am still working on it.

In this orientation, it makes me think of plants in a garden.

Here is how it looks on my sewing table

Until Next Time,

Hello There,

Thank you for stopping by! This week was a fabulous stitching week, and I'm looking forward to more stitching next week!

Just Finished from Kitty and Me Designs

I've been doing some stitching on my little 6 inch crazy quilt blocks and completed 2 more of them:

When I was packing up mom's clothes, I found this sweatshirt that I made for her years ago. The little Chippy is cross stitched on the shirt using waste canvas. I did a lot of sweatshirts back in the 90's! Anyway, I decided to just cut out the little stitched piece and use it on a block.

The large maple leaf is a pin from Avon. Remember, my mom sold Avon for years and years! Anyway, I have ...
