Snow Globe Zipper Pouch from Creatin' in the Sticks

It's a week of winter and snow globes over on the Thermoweb blog

and

I'm so happy to share a fun project over there.

I have the cutest little zipper pouches featuring

a reverse applique snow globe tutorial to share.

. Team HeatNBond Lite with a fabric collection like Michael Miller Fabrics' Curiosity by Sandra Clemons to make sweet little fabric snow globes.

They make sweet gifts for a snow globe collector or anyone.

All the details and the free pattern and tutorial can be found over at Thermoweb.

I love these so much and these fabrics are too ...

009 - Monsters Updated from Silly Goose Quilts

You've all seen the monster quilts I've made. I get emails often from people who love them. They do make me smile, I admit.

So I thought I'd show you the close ups of my lovely little monsters.

I'm done with them now. I've made at least four of the monster quilts, and I am tired of them.

But they are very cute.

I have no leftover blocks anymore, apart from one or two and I will put them on the back of something, or make a child's library bag or something from them ...

The Mermaid from Becca's Crazy Projects

Part 4 - Quilting

It has been a while since I updated you on this fun quilt. This post will have loads of photos as I tried to capture the quilting as I went. I pieced the backing for this quilt. The backing doesn't even really matter since my plan is to hang this quilt once it is done.

I used a matching pale blue for the background quilting. I tried to capture shapes you might see underwater. Waves.

Seaweed and underwater currents.

Green to accentuate the tail fin.

Echoes and echoes.

Fish scales.

I try to match my top ...

Happy New Year and Finishing up stuff - PHD in 2020 from Quilting & Learning

Happy New Year!

You may have heard of UFO (UnFinished Objects) but did you know that there are PHD (Projects Half Done)? Quilting Gail is hosting PHD link-ups twice a month to encourage us all to finish these lovelies. Some projects may be almost done while others are probably much less than half done. It doesn't matter. In 2020 we will work on finishing 12 of these!

And that's not all. We also have to finish the projects we start in 2020 so that we don't contribute to more UFO or PHD. It may be very optimistic ...

Under the Sea from Cowtown Quilts

Finally finished with this one. It started out as a figment of my imagination, and I ran with it. I made this for my toddler grandson, so it’s a little too “involved” for that age, but I ran with it anyway.

When my daughter was pregnant, she had talked about making an ocean life quilt for her baby-to-be, but you know how pregnancy sucks up your life; that’s exactly what happened. I was already well into another quilt for the baby, so there was no way I could also whip one of these up, too. Time has passed ...

003 - Show And Tell (Checkered Hearts) from Silly Goose Quilts

Back into the Show And Tell routine, documenting and photographing all my quilts, even the less spectacular ones.

This one was made many, many years ago and has been washed and loved to death.

I look back now at all the flaws, and I need to remember that whilst it may look dreadful, we didn't know as much as we do now and it was loved to death. Washed and washed and washed, now it's faded, the binding has begun to shrink, and it doesn't matter because isn't that what we make quilts for? To wear ...

Ferns and Flora 14, 15, 16 from Virtual Quilter

Today’s designs are leaning towards traditional, which is the style I like, but I like original designs, regardless of their style.

In this project file I like the way the blocks create lines and shapes within the overal design.

We are enjoying some cooler weather for a few days, hopefully enough to allow firefighters to get on top of fires around Australia.

Deep In December Finishes, Surprising Top Five Blog Posts, from Canadian Needle Nana

Facing down another year with 2020 a few days away. It does give one pause doesn't it.
But before looking back at the whole year I have to give December its due. It was a wonderful month with lots of good things, family time and celebrating certain events as well in it.
I was also pleased with my stitching this month. Though I did poke a few holes in two of my right hand fingertips, it was worth it. I did not finish 10 more of the Dresden blocks as was the monthly plan, but I did prep 5 ...

June 2017 from Nestlings By Robin

I hope you have enjoyed the peeks

back as much as I have!

These looks back have been

eye opening and I am appreciative

of all that has been accomplished.

This ca 1890 string star quilt was found in

Plant City, FL on one of my appraisal

training outings with my friend, Brenda.

It really doesn't fit in with my normal

style but I Love it! I can't tell

you why other than the red and gold

together is very captivating.

String stars are normally haphazard

and this creator found a way to speak

to my OCD nature ...

Chateau Getaway, Christmas Feast, Scandinavian Applique from Canadian Needle Nana

I have an abundance of things to be thankful for this Thursday. The special birthday was celebrated and Santa came, not down a chimney but through the basement patio door a certain little someone thought. This year everyone chipped in for the big dinner which was a feast and I brought the turkey. So my house had a wonderful smell all Christmas Day.

My inside voice has been rather quiet lately. I'm the one who must turn everything over and over in my mind and often feels compelled to verbalize whatever idiotic/phenomenal(to me)/strange idea it is ...
