Can I Get A Whoop Whoop? An Unusual Week.... from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Well, Friday has finally arrived at the end of what seems like a very long week, and we all know what that means - it's time for us to get our whoop whoop on! Are you ready? Let's go!

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

Tuesday of this week was primary election day in Tennessee, and I was fortunate enough to get to work the polls for the day! It's a lot of fun, but really hard work, starting at 5:45 am and running through about 8:30 pm by the time things are all packed up and delivered where necessary ...

It's been a busy week around my studio this week, and my quilt math brain has been stretched to its limit - but I have a finished t-shirt quilt top to show off!

It's been a while since I made one of these, and because I made some adjustments to block sizes as I went to fill in empty spots, I ended up needing ...

It's been a busy week of finishes around my studio this week - I had a customer quilting job, plus a wedding gift quilt to make and a t-shirt quilt to begin working on. Whew! A lot on my plate, but I'm happy to say things went well. First thing was taking care of the customer quilt, and although I don't have ...

Can I Get A Whoop Whoop? We May Need A Bigger Boat... from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Another week has come and gone - a very different week, as the snow has all melted away and we are currently awash with rain! Poor Bree has been cooped up inside the house for so long, so today when it was warmer, we let her romp outside, even though it was rainy and the yard was flooded. And here's what we ended up with...

...one extremely wet and excessively muddy (but very happy) Australian Shepherd! So now the house smells like wet dog, but there are much worse things, right?

And since it's Friday, we know ...

Can I Get a Whoop Whoop? Making Headway! from Confessions of a Fabric Addict

Hi, all!

Well, I don't know what it looks like in your part of the country, but this is DEFINITELY not normal for us!

This has been the view from my window since Monday morning - about 6 or 7 inches of snow that isn't going away!

And today when I ventured outside, I saw this hanging from the Christmas decorations that are still up on my railing (oh the shame!) and that is DEFINITELY not acceptable! We don't do icicles!

But all of that aside, this long long week of forced seclusion has come to an end ...

It's been a busy week of sewing at my house, and I have a few things to show for it! First of all, I managed to finish this pretty sampler quilt - my first finished UFO of the year!

Technically, it wasn't my UFO - it was given to me by a friend who was getting rid of all her ...

This week I was supposed to be working on cleaning up my studio, and making frankenbatting. I did make a prodigious amount of frankenbatting....

...which I still need to roll up on the batting bar under my quilt frame. I believe there's enough to make about fourteen 60" square quilts (my go-to size) so that ...

Many of you know that I was out of commission and out of the blogging world for most of the year in 2022. During that time I undertook a pretty major handwork project. Hexies seemed like just the ticket for something small and portable to take with me and work on in my chair, so I put together a small kit and started.

At first, I intended to ...

Hi, all!

Well, it's hard to believe, but today it is finally December!! The last month of the year has arrived - doesn't it seem like a long time since Thanksgiving? It was so early this year, but that just means more shopping and crafting days before Christmas, right?

I have to admit that it's been a weird week around here - Monday and Tuesday had some unusual things scheduled that interfered with quilting time, and then Tuesday night I had some viciously spicy kung pao chicken for supper that had my stomach tied in knots all day Wednesday. And then Thursday, my grandkids were off from school (teacher workday) so I took advantage of it to spend some ...
