It's 70 out! I'm sure it's just a tease, we have the rest of March to get thru.
I did 3 more tablecloths yesterday!
I love all the fabrics that Manda picked from my collection of large pieces. Each piece took 2 yards, so that's 12 yards used! We mailed them out this morning.
I really liked the Exploding Heart design when I saw it, so I decided that it would be my next project. It has 18 blocks in each of 18 rows, and the blocks finish at 4″ square. Well, who can’t manage a 4″ square, right? But the quilt is going to end up at 72″ […]
read moreRecently a quilt image popped up in my Pinterest feed that looked intriguing. It's called Diabolical Jane, and several clicks later I found the source, a tutorial by Jessie Aller. Her version is a copy of a 200 year old quilt she saw on a museum tour with the DC Modern Quilt Guild. Check out their images at the link.
Have you ever finished a quilt, proudly laid it across the bed… and realized it’s either way too small or hanging halfway to the floor? Yep—this happens to a lot of us. Figuring out the right quilt size can feel a little confusing because beds come in different sizes, mattresses are thicker than they used to be, and everyone seems to have a different opinion about how much quilt should hang over the sides.
The good news is it doesn’t have to be complicated. Once you understand a few basic measurements and how quilts are typically sized ...
read moreIsn’t that what they say when you try and get back to doing something that you haven’t done in a long time? Welcome it has been a long time since I have written here, I have missed it and I want to try and catch up. My Quilt Show pages are also way out of date so I am going to add both old and new quilts, wallhangings and a few odds and ends.
I have been busy. Thanks to the help of a couple of longarm quilters, Lynn Jones and Nadine Stevens I have been able to ...
read moreWe had a snowstorm ten days ago and I captured this shot of Petey from my tv room chair. Ned is still off somewhere in the yard. Neither of them seemed aware of the wild weather all around them. This is the most snow we've had on the ground since living in this house. I can touch the roof in places. It means the ground will get a lot of water this spring and after a couple of drier years, that's a good thing.
read moreI had a lot of company over the weekend again. That left me with not so much sewing time. It’s all okay. I love the company and enjoy spending time with them. Last Sunday, I was in the sewing room and started sewing together the string triangles that the girls and I had worked on. …

read moreThe Lake County Women's Coalition annual Women's History Month luncheon was on Saturday. Each LCWC member organization nominates an honoree who exemplifies the year's theme.
I'm on the LCWC steering committee as the rep for the Zion Woman's Club but I am also a member of AAUW. AAUW's honoree was Nan Buckart (bio on left) who was director of education for the Lake County Forest Preserves. ZWC's honoree was Wendy Driver (bio on right) whose many interests in community activism include gardening (seed-saving, monarchs, zinnias, and more).
Top: the ZWC contingent.

read moreI can't remember the last time I didn't have anything at all to post for Design Wall Monday. But that's the case today. Being gone for 5 days - even when we're only 75 miles from home - takes it's toll on routines. We left Wednesday and got home last night. College basketball conference tournament time is our annual "thing". It was fun - but exhausting.
The Jackrabbit men lost in the first round unfortunately. But the SDSU Jackrabbit women upset the #1 team from NDSU to win the conference tournament title. That is 4 years in a ... read more

read moreMost of the quilt alongs/mystery quilts I sew along with start in 1st or 4th quarter.

read moreOh my, where to start? Betty and I went to garage sale Saturday. We normally don’t go to garage sales, but her sister texted her and said they had a lot of fabric. Well, ok. Off we went. I bought a bag full for $4.50. I failed to take a picture of it; I’ll do that later today.
I worked on the picket fence border I want to put on my Round Robin quilt. It’s slow going. Since I decided to do scrappy, I feel like the cutting took longer than I had hoped. I have ...
read moreThe quilting is subtle as I used a matching cream colored thread.
Quilted and trimmed. Now for some binding.




I had such a busy week that I actually forgot that I had a long weekend. At first I wondered what I was going to do with it. Perhaps I should’ve planned to go away. I had two intense days of long arm quilting mastery teaching which went very well. I also gave a talk to the local Quilt group and everybody stayed awake so that’s always a good sign. It was great to see some of my quilts again which just live in a suitcase. I have been driving around with them all week because I can ...
