What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

At the beginning of May, I pruned the geranium of its leggy twigs and set them to grow roots. Now, just four weeks later, the jar is full of roots, so it is time to put them in pots.

One plant went into this pot that had the mother plant. There is a lot of space and I’d like it to fill in a bit.

The other one got a pot of its own. I could have used a bigger pot and planted it deeper, but this will do for now. I can always transplant it later.

The bargain ...

Once upon a time before the great pandemic, I was at a fancy store admiring beautiful jewelry.  I have plenty of jewelry including some exquisite pieces from India. But the glittering stones beckoned to me.

Hello Quilting Friends!  I just wanted to pop in and give you an update on my current leaders and enders project.  Slowly but surely I'm finishing up the cornerstones and sashing.  

When most of us think of a leaders and enders project we think of a Bonnie Hunter quilt.  Bonnies quilts more often than not do not have one consistent fabric let alone two or three.  The idea to keep this a 100% leaders and enders quilt sounds like a good idea but I'm at the point of just get it done.  Learning to use the leaders and ...

 Hi everyone, and happy week before Christmas! Are you feeling very merry? Thanks for all of the great holiday stories on the blog hop on my last post! I really enjoyed putting my feet up and reading about your families. After the year that we have had, no one could blame us for just sitting around eating cookies, drinking something warm, and telling happy stories for the next couple of weeks, could they?

Down in the sewing room, I have finished another repurposed project, just in time for a some nice photos in the snow. Yahoo! Here is the Rainbow ...

 Hi everyone, and happy after-Thanksgiving! I hope you are having a really restful weekend following what was, for us, a very strange holiday. It was just us here, which was very, very different from what we usually have. I actually did my first 5K the first thing in the morning (see sweaty picture at the bottom of this post), then relaxed and cooked a small dinner for the two of us.We had turkey thighs (which are incredibly inexpensive), potatoes, gravy, and Zoomed with the family, and somehow we polished off a whole pie. I have no idea how that ...

If you’re bored and looking for a new challenge, might I suggest working on a series of quilts to improve your skills. That’s what I realized when I decided to work a my rainbow series.  But little did I know that it wasn’t just the piecing of the quilts… it was also a learning experience … Continue reading "Working on a serie of quilt can help you improve your skills"

Normally, I like to release several new designs at one time.  Under the circumstances at this time however, I thought we could all use a rainbow to remind us that every storm eventually runs out of rain!

This is my latest in the Colorful Cats series of Cross Stitch patterns.  What do you think of Rainbow?

Another secret sewing – this time a pattern in the works

Secret sewing and changes afoot here at Clever Chameleon. Little plans, big dreams and small signs of what is coming and what is hopefully to come. More wonderful quilts on the Island Batik Summer 2019 fabrics blog hop. And our Tuesday Colour & Inspiration party, of course.

Happy Tuesday!

Change is a-comin’

Since I don’t have a lot I can show you this week, now seems as good as anytime to drop some news. The Chameleon is going bush for a year! And not just to the countryside. Remote bush ...

Oggi mi sono cimentata in alcune prove che intendevo fare da settimane, ovvero da quando mi sono arrivati i colori spray per tessuto della Marabu.
Visto che volevo testare anche l'intensità dei colori, li ho usati tutti, disposti secondo l'arcobaleno.
In precedenza ho tinto tessuti con i colori batik, ma ero rimasta insoddisfatta dal tono un po' spento dei colori e soprattutto dall'aspetto delle fibre del cotone dopo la tintura a caldo: sembrano quasi cotte, e il tessuto ne risulta rigido e difficilmente lavorabile con la tecnica hawaiiana. Poi ho provato i Soleil della Pebeo, ma la ...
