Summer Flowers, Autumn Stitching and New Start from Canadian Needle Nana

I'm seeing signs that the autumn season is starting to take hold. The leaves are starting to turn and fall. It's been single digits overnight lately and staying cooler during the days. I like this time between the seasons and wish it would last longer here.

I transplanted two Japanese Anemone bushes to the right of the front path. This season they have really taken off. I didn't know they would spread like this! They have taken over the whole space but it is a plus that the bees love them.

Such a gorgeous little flower!

Funnies, Bunnies, and Blooms from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. When I left you yesterday, I was thinking I'd wait until after our hike to blog again. But then we had so much going on yesterday, and I managed to take dozens of pictures again. Since I know I'll take bazillions of pictures on our hike today, it seemed like a good idea to cut down on the volume for my next post. We're planning to do our hike in a couple of hours...and bonus! It rained last night, but the forecast is for dry weather for the hike. Yay!

Okay, so ...

Weekly update: quilt show and afterward from With Strings Attached

The 22nd Great Wisconsin Quilt Show was at the Alliant Center in Madison September 10-12. It used to be called an expo, hence the quilt label that identifies the post. It's the eighth time I've attended and the second time I've stayed overnight.

By pleasant coincidence both Anna and I arrived at the same time Thursday morning. We met at the entrance--we didn't even have to text. She stays at her brother's cabin. I had a motel reservation.

I was able to get tickets for two lectures.

I've known Jennifer Chiaverini since she wrote ...

Catch up time from My Sewing Room

Yesterday was a chilly rainy day, which is fine because we need that rain desperately. It was a good day therefore to catch up on a bunch of things. I had PT, stopped for a few groceries, and spent most of the afternoon working through a mountain of laundry and an overflowing email inbox.

Remember about a month ago I dug out a bin full of squares of flannel in baby prints, already sewn to denim backing. I had planned to make a rag quilt many moons ago, but knew that just wasn't going to happen now days. So ...

To Do List for the Week of 9/15/2026 from Life In Pieces

My sewing mojo dipped a bit last week. Not sure why, but it was just harder to get up to the sewing room. It didn't help that I felt crappy last weekend. It wasn't a horrible week, there was still good progress on the to do list, but a few things slipped through the cracks.

To Do List for 9/8/2026

1. Glowing Hearts: Continue quilting ✔

2. 2026 Guild BOM: Cut fabrics needed for assembly - no progress

3. Celtic Solstice: Continue making blocks ✔

4. Marigold Mystery: Cut fabrics for September blocks ✔

5. Wild and Goosey: Finish teal ...

Stumpwork Berry Vine from Shawkl

I'm scheduled to teach a class Spring 2027 in Mississippi. We will be creating a stumpwork project. When I showed it at my guild for Show'n'Tell...the ladies that gather for embroidery wanted to give it a go.

So, we are tackling it over the next three months. I have a slightly "less tedious" option for the little bee...using Bullion Knots instead of Turkey Stitching and stickly transparent wings instead of stitched ones.

Busy Bees Quilt – Part 3 Quilting and Finishing from From My Carolina Home

With the complex piecing on this quilt, it was begging for custom quilting. I had a fair amount of negative space to play with, now to decide on what to put where.

I loaded it on the longarm, using the same print as in the border between the pinwheels and the flying geese for backing. That print is also the light background print in the medallion. It was from a bolt I had bought at Foust, and thankfully, this finally used it up.

One of the things I learned on a recent class on quilt judging is that judges like ...

Quick Appliqué Pillow from Fret Not Yourself

Do not complain about growing old. It is a privilege denied to many.

~Mark Twain

Not complaining but I caught something this summer and am still not well. However, I did finally finish an appliqué pillow.

I began in June cutting out bits of almost every floral in my stash - whether it went together or not. Then overlapped on a piece of background fabric and loosely sewn in place and finally topstitched. {There was quite a lag between the start and finish though.} The photo on the left is when it was pinned while the right shows the difference using ...

It's a BIG news kind of day! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

ACK --- that's why pictures tell a thousand words! To clarify the pressing, here are the tips again.

Here are a few tips

Press the just-sewn seam from the back to soften the fibers and make them more malleable.
Use your finger before pressing (with the steam) to get the fabric going in the correct direction.
Use STEAM WISELY (I ALWAYS press with steam).
I put a towel on my ironing board for better grip.
Press from the FRONT, never the back.
I use a regular inexpensive iron.

Step one is to warm up the fabric, so take the two ...

A little more clean up.................... from Exuberant Color

It was a busy day yesterday. My van needed servicing so my grandson and wife took me out for brunch after dropping it off and then we went back to my house. Five sections were broken off the huge green Coral Bell and 4 planted in the center section and one in the section behind it. Then they finished cleaning up the paver area and cleaned off the porch and sidewalk. Also bottom dead branches of the hydrangea were cut off. It is looking so nice now. We went back to get the van afterwards.

This is the area where ...

Busy Day - AGAIN from Quilting My Way

Today, I really didn't want to get up, so I slept till 10 am. Then forced myself to get up. Patrick was already up and watching TV.

I got moving as soon as I was up. I worked on getting Patrick what he needed or wanted. He said she wanted to have the tomato sauce I made the other day, and I really didn't want to use it up that fast. So, I went out to the garden and got a few more tomatoes, luckily enough to make a small batch of sauce. I put that in the ...

Scraps Be GONE! from Elaine Adair Pieces

No photos - today, I did a BIG procrasting thing. I emptied, AND TOTALLY DISCARDED one entire storage box of little fabric/quilt parts and pieces - probably over 1000 little saved bits - walked them all the way to the dumpster and dumped them in - non retrievable. DH always says "one step at a time" and "make every day count."

Then, in prep for a quilting retreat and trying to come up with a project that wasn't too demanding, I dug out the latest collection of batting and cut up 56 nine inch squares.

OMG - I feel like a huge weight ...
