Rain is coming from South Jersey Quilter

 We could get a couple of inches of rain this afternoon! So I placed my replacement Walmart order early, so it will arrive before the rain.

I had got a Walmart grocery order two days ago, and a lot was missing- I think probably a whole bag. Walmart credited me, so I reordered the items, plus several more.


 Garrett and Huckleberry at the beach on Puget Sound. G loves that tee so much!

I don't know how to turn the photo! Christmas Shoppes, I had to move the q snap. Almost 14% done.

In A Pickle from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. Since we last chatted, a lot of water has passed under the bridge. Thankfully, Tuesday’s Moh’s procedure is in the rearview mirror. My doctor and his staff made the whole experience as pleasant as possible. Still, it took four swipes to get all of it, and my nose looks like it's been through a wringer...or something...maybe in a boxing ring or something. In any case, it's done, and I'm glad it's done. Yesterday had me feeling a little dragged out, mainly from the stress of the whole thing ...

Poking along from My Sewing Room

Wednesday morning I had PT, but had a little sewing time once I got home.  This morning I also have PT, and then I'm hosting cards this afternoon.  But I should have a little sewing time in between PT and cards.


The first priority yesterday was finishing the 4 Dutchman's Puzzle blocks for the Marigold mystery.  These are 8" finished. With these 4 blocks joining the 5 star blocks already done, I'm caught up with the August prompt for the mystery.  

I also worked on the yellow Honey Bee and yellow Scrappy Star blocks that were already ...

Sew Fabulous! from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!


This week got a little bit hijacked with our Gift-Away Trifecta and the drawing sign-up snafus...but here we are, all of the quilts and projects over the porch rail with the August Quiltvillians 2.0!

We worked around the weather, finding an afternoon full of sunshine so we could get these photos taken.

We had so many newbies, and that was exciting! I always love seeing things and feeling the excitement of first-timers as they discover the fun we have here.

Blocks started................. from Exuberant Color


Yesterday I made the decision to make the traditional 16 patch blocks with my stratas.  I pressed all of the stratas and cut enough pieces to make 20 blocks, 2 each of the ones in this photo.  I'm happy with the way it is looking so far.  Today I'll cut 20 more and lay out some of these blocks on the fabrics I showed yesterday for possible alternate blocks.  

Today is supposed to be the best day of the week for low humidity.  I hope the prediction is right because I would like windows open.

Whoopie Pies from Lovin' Life At The End Of The Dirt Road

 I've never made these, but have wanted to for years and I figured it would be a fun thing to make when our granddaughter was here one day. She likes to help with everything I do and that makes everything fun. DH walked in as we were putting them together and asked Little E what they were. She piped up excitedly, "Whoopie Pies, Pap! Here! Have one!". These turned out great and

Community Quilts from Karen B from Jo's Country Junction

The lastest quilts are from Karen. Karen writes: Hello everyone!  It’s mid summer here.  Even though the temperatures …

More Ruler Work! from The Knitting Quilter


 I'm almost done quilting my Whiskas and Catnip Quilt. The borders are complete but I have these flying geese with feathers on either side that still have to be quilted. They're in the middle of the quilt so I thought I would finish up the borders and then go back and finish this area. You can see I marked one spine. I took a class once and was always told that stitching up the spine should be the first step in making feathers. 

I use this ruler for marking my vine even though that's not the intended ...
