RSC26 - Week #23 from My Sewing Room

My sewing preferences tend to lean toward bright saturated colors, but the stash (and scraps) do contain plenty of pastels too. So far this year I've kind of neglected those lighter shades, until Angela chose them for our June color. And because I had finished some major goals this week I was able to dive right into the pastels.

The first thing I did last Saturday after seeing we would be playing with pastels - was make 2 Confetti Stars, paper pieced from scraps in the light blue scrap bin.

Each month I've been making 4 Snail Trail blocks ...

Half sewn................. from Exuberant Color

Two sections of 7 columns are sewn together now and that is half of the quilt top. I unpicked the rest of the cut loops, and now I need to cut loops from the next strata.

I was in the basement doing a load of laundry and decided I should check the top shelf in the bathroom to see if I had any other older irons I can use. Surprise!! There was a new iron in a box. I think I must have used my expiring Kohl's cash for it when there wasn't anything else I needed. I ...

Orange RSC Stitching, and South Island Memories from Romany Quilting

I'm running a bit late with my orange stitching, but this is now the last of it. For someone who doesn't particularly like the colour orange, I think I did quite well. It was time to have a dig into my bag of "bag bits" of fabric pieces, linings and cord to make drawstring bags for foster kids again. And I had enough for seven bags. I found a rusty orange floral fat quarter with strips pinned together for the cord casings, and made two bags from that. Then there were chickens clucking around, so they got made ...

Tilly and the Buttons Frida shirt from Just Sew Sue

I bought the Tilly and the Buttons new pattern for the Frida shirt at Stitch Festival in March. Lizzie and I started the pattern in April and finished it at retreat in May. The fabric is by Seasalt and could have been bought ten years ago. It was perfect for the shirt apart from the right and wrong sides looking identical which caused me some head scratching when installing the plackets on the sleeve cuffs. This was a new technique to me but after finding a good Youtube video, I was back on track. Lizzie didn't have that trouble ...

Garage Progress from Jo's Country Junction

Rick and I have been working on the garage most of the mornings this week. If you remember, we’re making it into a family room of sorts. It will still be a totally working garage, but when we have family and friends over, it will turn into an extended living space. Rick works second shift, …

Rainy Day - And Not My Day from Quilting My Way

This morning, Patrick was golfing and I was sleeping in. Then I finally got out the door to walk. Only made it 3 laps before the rain started to pour. Just as I got into the house the water was fast and strong coming down. I would have been even more soaked than I was.

I needed to go to the grocery store for some things to make dessert. Mom said she needed me to come to the Bazaar so she could give me the quilt top that was done. So, I headed down the street to the Bazaar. They ...

More homecoming from Beryl the Pearl

Well, this has been an interesting day working on the homecoming quilt at one point yesterday, after I had all the pieces cut out, I looked at it and thought how is this ever going to go together? And then I realized if I named the pieces and then named on the pattern where the pieces went, then I should be able to put it together. I made a lot of mistakes, I cut two squares wrong and had to redo them. But I think I’ve got it figured out. And looking back it looks like it was easy ...

Two Projects from The Knitting Quilter

I had a busy week. I had a few appointments and just never had the time to get much sewing done. Today was much quieter so I finally got to sit at the sewing machine. I sewed the center part of the Whiskers N Catnips quilt. This portion measures 24" X 48". I have to add 6 more blocks so it won't be staying this size for long. The quilt will end up being 97" square. I still have quite a few borders to add!

I enjoyed working on this cute little cross stitch pillow. This was last month ...

What Kelli is Reading: Dear Debbie from Jo's Country Junction

Kelli is here today to share a book with us. Kelli writes: I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump, aka scrolling too much TikTok, but I digress. I also really like thriller/mystery books, which is quite different than the spicy romances that seem to be the popular thing right now, so one good …

Friday check in: the raffle that wasn't, placemats + reading from With Strings Attached

The rain forecast today will be most welcome. I planted tomatoes, beans, and lettuce earlier this week.

It was great to have lunch with Pat yesterday. She lives 60 miles from me and we don't get to visit in person often enough. We rediscovered an Indian restaurant we found by accident a couple of years ago--we'd both forgotten about it until I turned onto that road, then we both remembered. It was a good choice.

What We Are Working On from Eagle's Wings Quilts

I skipped doing a post about our Prayers and Squares progress last week since I didn’t get any pictures taken. I’m not sure what I was doing or why I didn’t get pictures. Anyhow, this week I remembered to get up and get pictures. I even grabbed the pile of sampler blocks Marg has been working on and spread them out to take their picture. They are 10 inch blocks using up scraps. They are gorgeous. She’s planning on 20 blocks set 4 x 5 done quilt as you go style. Janet has also been working ...

June is bustin’ out all over from A Prim and (not so) Proper Quilter

The heat and humidity are here, flowers are blooming, veggies are growing, and I can’t get enough sewing time.

Ah, summer. While not yet officially here, all of its attributes are in place and I wrestle with which thing to do first. My heart wants to plant my butt in my studio, but Johnson grass is loving the new super soil we spread around the pollinator garden, so into the weeds I must go.

On Monday morning at 7:19 am, the temp was 75°, but felt like 80°. My 45 minutes in the garden was muggy and sticky--sweat ...

Social Sewing Project Progress from The Colorful Fabricholic

I haven't been able to make it to social sewing much lately, but I did go on Wednesday. I have a project that I only work on at social sewing, so it's moving along very slowly. That's okay, it's a donation quilt with no deadline.

It's a very simple design of Mary's Triangle blocks alternated with plain blocks and set on point. It took months to make all the blocks. While away from social sewing I laid out all the blocks on my design wall and clipped them in rows to sew together.

A Day of Many Hours from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. Often, a day gets away from me, and the time passes more quickly than I thought it would, leaving me with some of my goals unaccomplished at the end of the day. Yesterday was kind of the opposite. I kept thinking it was later than it was. It meant I was able to get a lot done. Don't be impressed. None of it was very exciting, but it's always good to have crossed off all the items on my list at the end of the day.
