Rainy and Windy Weekend Sewing from Grandma's Red Needle

How was your weekend? I hope you had a good one. 
Here, it was 'quilting weather'; intermittent rain, strong wind and cold. With high humidity, it feels colder than it is. BRRR! While writing this (Monday morning) it's pouring rain.

Two quilts (UFOs) were thread basted;


A Quilting Life's BOM 2025


It measures approximately 87 inches / 220 cm square. It's a monster to quilt on my domestic sewing machine, but it will be done, eventually. My goal is to finish it by end of September (this year!). I forgot taking a ...

Travelog: The Best of Scotland from With Strings Attached

 This summer marks 30 years of our Road Scholar adventures. Stevens and I began traveling with Elderhostel, as Road Scholar was then called, in 1996 when they changed the minimum age requirement.  My parents traveled with Elderhostel, too, so I'm second-generation.   Click on the tab at the top to see the entire list.  


I've always known about my Scottish ancestry on my mother's side (her mother was the tenth child in the family but the only one born in the U.S. (1894)).  Thanks to Ancestry I've discovered how deep the Scottish roots are and, surprisingly ...

Psalms 15 Who may dwell in God's tent? Fiber Fun, Literary Living, Finding Joy from Faith, Trust and Breast Cancer

 Hello There,

Thank you for stopping in today!  It has been a week - thank God it's a new week on Sunday!  I was able to spend an afternoon with my oldest grandchildren.  The following day my granddaughter came over for the afternoon.  We made Jalapeño Poppers.  She actually taught me now to make them!  They were delicious! 
 
During my regular Friday night call with my friend, I managed to misplace my phone while using earphones—and then the battery completely died, so I couldn't even ping it! It was still missing by Saturday morning.  On a ...

Two Baby Quilt Tops and Handstitching, of course! from The Cozy Quilter

In an effort to use up my kids prints and to replenish my baby quilt supply, I made two I spy baby quilts over the last couple of weeks.  The first is a Bonnie Hunter Pattern...Bricks and Stepping Stones.  The quilt is 36" by 48" and features lots of fun I Spy prints. 


The second one is a Potato Chip quilt featuring more fabrics from my collection.  It is the same size as the one above.  I tried to use pairs of all of the fabrics so that a game of find the matching fabric can be played.  Some ...

One for the Bunnies from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. We had another day of rain yesterday. Not as much as on Thursday, but still…a good amount. We had grocery shopping to do, but I wasn’t going anywhere until I had my slow-stitching session. I stitched up what I could in my hoop…


And then moved it to stitch what remains of the cat. I’ll be able to start on the leaves and morning glories next.


So our grocery list was short. We ended up standing at the check-out stand for quite a while, though. The woman ahead of us asked for several ...

Saturday Sparks Link Party 732 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 732!

Starting off today's party with a little capture!


I needed something to share for the party, so I grabbed my camera and headed outside.

There's always something picture worthy.

After just a few minutes, I spotted some movement in the marshy area of our pond and there she was.

Her mottled coat, a sure sign that summers end is near.

Hello, sweet girl!

"When you stop and look around, the world is pretty amazing."

Now, onto the party,

RSC26 - Week #36 from My Sewing Room


My habit of cutting ahead has been paying off again this week.  One design board was filled with purple parts.  That meant that with a spare 15-20 minutes these 3 Buckeye Butterfly blocks were all done. I'm getting close to having enough of these blocks for a quilt. 


The purple Ticker Tape blocks were quick finishes too.  I'll need a few more purple ones, but this is a good beginning.


The Gameboard block and Hollow-9 were not already cut out, but the right size pieces presented themselves as I worked on other things.  

These were mostly small blocks ...

A little purple stitching. from Romany Quilting

 I had a rummage through my "bag of bag bits" to see what I had tucked away in purple, I was sure there were a couple of suitable pieces of fabric just waiting to be found.  What's this, two orphan blocks in shades of purple, a small piece of alien fabric and a stripey floral.  So I gathered toning fabric for the backs plus some lining fabric and started cutting and pinning.  The bags turn out to be different sizes, depending on how big the piece of focus fabric is.  The orphan blocks were stitched first.  One was a ...

Snail's Trail.................. from Exuberant Color


The Snail's Trail quilt was back from my longarm quilter so it was time to trim it and find a binding fabric.












I'm sure I bought this brown and black stripe with bindings in mind.  I think it looks great with the front of the quilt.






It's okay with the backing fabric too.  I need to press out the creases and cut 7 strips and get busy.

It is disappointing that Google Blogger has messed up leaving comments.  Several people emailed me yesterday when they could see the comments weren't going through.  I hope it is ...

A Quick Update from Quarter-Inch Capers

Happy weekend everyone!

If I’m being honest, I was ready for this week to be over. It’s been a little too stressful. I’m hoping to put it all behind me and move on.

I did finish piecing another baby quilt.


I think it’s cute. The fabric has little blue and gray cats on it.

I have another vintage quilt to finish for Rhonda. She’s the one I did the vintage signature quilt for.


It’s small hand-stitched pieces. A lot of feedsacks.


She wants me to put a border on it before I quilt it ...

Wednesday with the Hankens from Jo's Country Junction

All schools run a little differently. Some have days off because of teacher in-service. School for my Hanken grandkids is different. They just get out of school every Wednesday at 1 pm. So, on Wednesday, when the kids got out at 1 pm, Kelli picked them up they came for a visit. It was great. …
