What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Just a little quilting got done on Tuesday evening – I didn’t push it after getting the injections done and today didn’t succeed in getting much done either.  Of course that might be because a bit of house cleaning got done instead (I tend to push that off more than I used to).  I am […]

Seeing as I was gone a good part of yesterday as I said I wasn’t going to have anything done in the quilting room – but here are some blocks half way done on Rainbow Crossings from Monday night – not a lot got done last night but I was able to work at it […]

I’m sure with the amount of sewing I am getting done with the last couple days you can tell it is back to being chilly outside – it has been too chilly to do more than wander down to the garden and cover up the strawberry plants to protect against the chill in case there […]

Yesterday was a very colorful day of working with rainbows of color.  First I got some knitting done and some hexies then I moved on to the sewing machine.  A lot of hexies to stitch on all week but this star point for Noriko’s Star is coming along nicely. On Saturday night the quilting frame […]

Our early spring has gone away and we have a chance for freezing on Tuesday and it has been nothing but chilly weather (40’s) for several days now – I knew our cool weather was not gone – but that means with this rainy chilly weather and an audio book to listen to that progress […]

Yesterday I got 10 more diamonds done leaving 12 more to do – I will try to finish those today.  These are in pairs – two of each. Added to the wall – this project was started last year with the Snails Trail block with SoScrappy’s Rainbow Scrap Challenge, just the bottom portion to go […]

It was a rainy day yesterday so I was kind of busy going from one project to another – one of those kind of days dark and dreary that if you didn’t stay busy you would fall asleep – which I almost did at least once! First I got the rest of the pieces cut […]

I took way too many photos yesterday to share them all so I need to be selective – LOL – I have enough for three post at least so I will trim it down to fit in one.  I did get busy on the Snails Trail pieces yesterday and now today I actually need to […]

Although I didn’t sew a lot of diamonds yesterday I did get a little done and have more of the background rectangles cut out to work with today.  I will soon need to cut more of them though and more diamonds.  I have been doing that as I need to and pulling fabric from the […]

I didn’t get around to stitching any diamonds until evening after my treadmill walk.  I decided to cut my quilting session just a little short in the evening as I hadn’t made any diamonds since Friday I think – in a half an hour I made five of them (36 more needed).  Today I will […]

Another nice day – after looking at the weather outlook I know we will have a couple more nice days before the rain and chill comes back but I don’t think it will be as cold as the weathermen seemed to be getting overly excited about last week calling it our “third winter” of the […]

I have a bit of prepping to do to make the next star point of Noriko’s Star – I actually haven’t made one in awhile as I had been working on the odd “points” and then triangles.  I had forgotten how many pieces go into it.  I got my diagram out – if I counted […]

I know a lot of you (like I) do not go back and read comments left so here is a note Melanie left those of you that commented on her library program: “Thank you everyone for the kind comments about the Stuffed Animal Sleepover. Most of the kids have picked up their animals and loved […]

But not on the diamonds – I got sidetracked and the sewing machine didn’t get a work out – I did get my dental crown back on and got the section of Noriko’s Star stitched on – ready for another section –  I think I will do a star point next – it is easiest […]

You know it started out so nice outside yesterday morning even if it was cloudy – but I knew the rain was coming and with it the temperature was to drop so instead of 78 that it was the previous day it kept dropping into the low 60’s and then the rain came too – […]

I think it is record setting I don’t remember any February 28th in Arkansas where I live being 78 degrees for the day!! I didn’t get a photo at 78 but I did at 77 –  crazy!  I went grocery shopping with a long sleeve t-shirt as it was 67 when I left the house […]

Quilting on Rainbow Crossings from Sunday night I rolled the quilt down and started on the next side On Monday evening while I was watching the news I got more of Noriko’s Star stitched. Nice no side effects from the injection – no soreness even – I think each time I have gotten Prolia the […]

Yesterday although I got my batting cut for the next pieced batting I never got it done – my excuse? I just didn’t feel like it!!  But it is ready for me! I did get some work done on the hexies and I will continue that for Slow Sunday Stitching with Kathy – one more […]

Another day another pieced batting – well make that two actually and at least 2 or 3 more to go – I will be glad when I get this done but glad too that I am sticking with it. This is what the mess looks like when it is done with the iron on tape […]

Not much to blog as I was out for about half the day – I didn’t work on any batting.  I did get the rest of the thread basting done for the section of Noriko’s Star that I have been working on this week and it is ready to get the EPP work on it […]
