"Polaris" Pattern Release! from Sew Karen-ly Created...

It's here! It's finally here!!

In December, I showed you "Polaris" which was featured in a private quilt box- Quilt The North - available only to subscribers. The response was very enthusiastic (thank you) and the stand-alone pattern is now available for purchase.

The design features a beautiful star compass (the North Star) encircled by a flock of flying geese whose colours are pulled from a display of our Northern Lights.

You can make Polaris square to use as a wall-hanging or table topper, or vary it for a 12" x 24" table runner. Instructions are included for both ...

What I’m Making: Cinnamon Toast Crunch Banana Bread from Jo's Country Junction

The other day, Rick said, “Honey, did you realize you have bananas here that would be perfect for banana bread?” I didn’t. It was the aftermath of having family here over the weekend. The bananas got shoved under some bread and stayed there to rot. UGH. When I was scrolling Facebook a bit ago, I …

Saturday Sparks Link Party 721 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 721!

Starting off today's party with DH's latest build!

He came up with the design over the winter.

The arched doors and windows reflect those of his church build as does the weathered barnboard siding and vintage tin roof.

It needs a few small finishing touches, but I couldn't wait to share.

It looks as though it's always been here.

Another job well done that just makes me smile.

"Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working."

~ Pablo Picasso

Now, onto the party,
First up, the Fabulous Features from Saturday Sparks ...

Pens on Paper from Gene Black an Alabama Artist

I have been trying to fit in a little art work during the times I stay with Mom. I have found that a sketchbook and some pens seem to work well as I can sit in the living room with her as I work.

I have been using Micron pens and brush markers -it is purposefully limited so that I don't have a lot to corral when I need to stop. I have both a regular sketchpad and a mixed media pad that I am using.

Both of pieces I am showing today were made in the mixed media ...

“That’s What I Do” from All Pressing Matters

The amazing husband had a big birthday last week, so even with everything that’s been going on (May stuff ran right into June!), I wanted to try to make him something special.

As a collector of guitars, I thought a guitar quilt would be appropriate for him. I used the pattern called Strummin’ by Pink Parakeet Designs. It uses fat quarters and I decided to go with batiks. I had a bunch I’ve been saving for years, so it was good to use a few up! I also used a dark background, which I LOVE and will do ...

100 Day Project from Melva Loves Scraps

The 100DayProject is a creativity excavation. It’s about unearthing dormant or unrealized creativity by committing to a daily practice every day for 100 days.

Creativity is a skill. The more we practice, the more skilled we become. Practice takes time. Practice takes commitment. Practice is a radical act in this speeded up world. Through practice, we develop a creative habit. Through habit, we reconnect with and know ourselves again as a creative being.

I've seen a number of other artists and quilters participate in the 100-day project over the years. It has always been a little intriguing ...

X and Plus Class Recap from The Colorful Fabricholic

You've seen this project when it was a finished flimsy, but not since it's been quilted. It's my serene green X and Plus quilt.

When I was making it I had a request to teach a class for it, so I recently taught an X and Plus class to several members of PCQ. Understand, the block has been around for many years and there are dozens of tutorials out there. My students could just as easily have found a tutorial and proceeded on their own. But what I can give them - and what they expect from me ...

Friday update: stormy weather, long-time friends, a flimsy + reading from With Strings Attached

Wednesday: Sophie hosted the online Block Lotto for many years. I joined BL about 2009 and enjoyed the monthly block designs. I won the Lotto several times.

Sophie is now traveling the country in an Airstream Sprinter van. The last couple of weeks she's followed Route 66 but in reverse, meaning that she ended in Chicago. She headed north and we met for lunch at a newly-renovated cafe in downtown Zion.

I showed her Illinois Beach State Park where I take so many walks.

Flitting from Project to Project and I Quilted This! from Quilting & Learning

Hi and welcome ☔ We're getting rain after a couple of wonderful sunny days. It was time for the rain to come since it got very hot and muggy. It was hard not spending my morning in the back yard, but I'm sure the sun will be back

What We’re Working On from Eagle's Wings Quilts

WE had a good day at Prayers and Squares yesterday. We got 2 quilts finished and layered. Susan has been working on this improvisational quilt for a while now. It started with the four multicoloured squares that were in a box that was donated to us. She has added to those squares to create a bright and happy quilt. It is layered and ready for quilting. I finished off the last of the pinwheel blocks and got them all sewn together. It too is now layered and ready for quilting. I was able to get another sets of stars done ...

What I’m working on …. from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

This past week has been busy with hubby. He has been falling, falling, falling ….. and can’t get up again. This morning, I had to call 911 to send paramedics to help get him up. They are going to recommend a service to contact me and they will be working with us to help keep him safe.

So, not much sewing has happened, but I did get some sewing in. I’m revisiting this project again to keep it moving along.

The blocks are getting pinned onto my design wall. So far, about 3/4 of the green and red ...

Finished (or not) Friday from My Sewing Room

This has been quite a week!! I'm tired out.

Late on Wednesday afternoon I was honored to award a Quilt of Valor in Sioux Falls to a Viet Nam veteran. We moved this award up in the schedule as the veteran is in poor health. It worked out perfectly because I could go the presentation and then went to watch a granddaughter play softball in a double-header just a few minutes away. He was so tickled to receive the quilt, and his friends set up a nice little party to celebrate HIM.

Thursday turned into a long sewing day ...

Fun on a Friday from Humble Quilts

Hello friends!

Here is a little side project I have going. Sending these off to a friend today.

I am fairly close to having the top completed to my 250th USA quilt!

I've been following social media on several visitors here in USA for the FIFA World Cup. It has been very refreshing! They are finding joy in the small things! Country music by Ella Langley, free soda refills, Bucees and college stadiums.

I've been getting some hiking in as well as I have a big end of the summer goal.

Long List from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. It was a busy day yesterday. There's still a little bit more to do before we can take off on our camping trip, but most of it is finished. The kitties are staying home this trip. They're too short to look through the telescopes that will be on site, and so they decided not to come. They've been given strict orders: No wild purrties and no loud mewsic.

My day started with hoeing the garden. It was the thing I least wanted to do, and so I did that first. Everything is looking ...

The Wedding from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

What a wild and crazy day! I feel like I lived through a very surreal moment! You know - you go to weddings all the time (OK -- not all the time, but time to time), but you go to weddings, and they go through the formalities, and everything is beautiful. And you hope that one day your child(ren) will find someone they deem worthy of themselves to marry.

And then it happens, and well—it was a beautiful day. Absolutely beautiful. But I'm going to start at the top.

Updates from South Jersey Quilter

My sister in law Morgan is slowly drifting away. John has been able to spend time with her, playing music and talking to her. It's just so sad.

I've had this conversation with many people. Is it better to lose a loved one suddenly, or to have them gradually pass? Both have good and bad facets.

Cousins! My late nephew Joe's son Joey, Steph, Heather, Michael holding his daughter Boone, and my youngest nephew Jake. Joey is 13 and shooting up tall so fast!

I finally hit 8% on the cross stitch, and moved the qsnap!

Patrice's Crumb Quilts from Night Owl Quilting

Patrice made two great scrappy quilts in an effort to work through her scraps and stash. She tells me it doesn't feel like these made much of a dent.

Crumb blocks are a great way to use up all those odds and ends. We added the Soho pantograph which is a pantograph in my collection that seems to look great on almost anything.

I love the bold red and blue background fabrics on this one.

The second has a totally different feel with the grey background and fun green backing.

We added Patrice's favorite Gingersnap pantograph and So ...
