It's Friday - Yay!! from My Sewing Room

Wow - it's already Friday, and there is not much to report.  There hasn't been much sewing time this week, but there was time with friends and family and that is even better.


You know how photos pop up every day on Facebook as memories?  Those memories always bring a smile to my face.  I have the same thing also happen in my email from One Drive, and recently this picture popped up from 2008. I was hand quilting, and there was no room on my lap for a 22 pound cat.  Sammy was tucked into the puddle of ...

Trip Around the World tutorial 2 from Exuberant Color

A few facts before I go into the next step of the tutorial.

Don't cut off selvages before you make the stratas.  The first clean-up cut from the strata tube will trim them off....and you may need 1/8" of the selvage area to get the number of loops you need from a strata tube.

I don't pre-wash regular printed cotton fabrics so I will get more loops per tube than those of you who prewash.

Batiks don't have the wide unusable selvages so you can always get more loops from a batik tube.

You are ...

Cross Stitch Update: May 29, 2026 from Jo's Country Junction

Cross Stitch wasn’t my best friend this week. First off, I didn’t stitch much as we had family here three of the days over Memorial Day. Second…I started out with a piece that hates me. So what piece hates me?? Garden Club Series by Blackbird Designs. Here is where I was… This block has gotten …

Working on Strip Cocktail from Beryl the Pearl

 I bought  a random set of strips, not matching at all, in fact I bought 3. It was from these I chose strips for the quilt along. Well I think this quilt is ugly as sin!  But I have to admit the more I walk by it, the more it kinda grows on me. It needs another row to be 5x6…  and now I am just about ready to start a new project even though I have the last one to quilt, need to find a backing for it  I have several on my want to do list

A Woolly Finish. from Sunburnt Quilts

It has taken a while, But my Sue Spargo quilt, Tinsel, has been completed. It didn’t take too long to complete each of the blocks and even sew the blocks together. But when it came to the quilting, I was a bit stumped. It was around the time my machine was playing up and didn’t want to stitch on wool. So it went in the too hard basket. When my machine was back in working order, other priorities had taken over. We all know about that.

Anyway, it finally came out and was completed in no time at ...

Trying To Get Caught Up from Quilting My Way

This morning, I couldn't get my rear out of bed till 9 am. I thought it was odd that Patrick didn't let me know he left. Found out why, when I walked into the living room to find him sleeping on the couch. He's stomach wasn't doing good today. I sent him back to bed because I had things to do. 

I got laundry going. Washed the new sheets we bought and the sheets from changing the bed. So, I ended up folding 2 sets. Not my favorite thing. 

I was cleaning the cat litter, vacuuming ...

Once You Pop You Can't Stop from Kat & Cat Quilts

Happy Friday, quilters! I have more of the block drive potato chip quilts to show.  These first two quilts were assembled by Becky and quilted by Doris. Big thanks to those two ladies!

I love the classic patchwork look of these blocks and Doris did a great job with her quilting, as always.

I'm really fond of this yellow fabric with blue flowers on the backing. I'm pretty certain this is one of the ones my local quilt shop friend gave me when she closed her shop.


Big quilting swirls to complement the blocks. 

These last two quilts ...

Thrifty Day from Jo's Country Junction

I stopped at the thrift store when I had a doctor’s appointment. These are the goodies I bought. Most of the things I bought were for finishing cross-stitch. The spools were $1 each. The box was $4. I found another jewelry box. I’ve been looking for another box like this. It was $2. You might …

TGIFF ~ Past Revisited from Melva Loves Scraps


Hello, hello!  Welcome To Melva Loves Scraps and Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday!  This is the place to celebrate finishes.  Maybe it's something that was quick and easy, or maybe... it's something that has been lingering for longer than you planned.  Either way, if it's finished... we will celebrate.

I also get that sometimes finished has a loose term... finished blocks, finished flimsy or top or quilted but no binding.  I'll let you define finished. ;)

This week I have a quilted and bound finished Pieces from the Past quilt that has been a work in ...

{I've Been Reading} Hot Wings and Homicide from Michelle's Romantic Tangle

 Hot Wings and Homicide by Carmela Dutra 

This book plunges the reader straight into the chaos and fun of a food festival -- then quickly puts a damper on things with Beth's discovery of her ex's body behind an out of the way building. I missed out on the first book in this series, but that didn't stop me from thoroughly enjoying it. Beth is up to her ears in a murder investigation while also manning her own food truck (I'm still not entirely sure how she juggled the whole thing) and her twin and her best ...

Banner Day from Wonkyworld

Last week we drove up to the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana, California to see the new quilt exhibition. The exhibition is called "The American Quilt, Cloth & Commerce" and is beautifully curated by Tara Miller of The Quilt District.
When we got to the museum, there was a big surprise. The exhibition banners. The quilt we found at Goodwill a year earlier was featured on the enormous exhibition banner hanging on the front of the museum. Oh. My. Goodness!
Wow! What a surprise!
We had a nice time in California. It was Linda's birthday the day after we arrived ...

WIP WEDNESDAY #213: How about this quilt block for a quick baby quilt? from Crafty Gemini

I have a baby shower later this summer and am in need of a quick baby quilt I can whip up. I have several tried and true go-to patterns but I’m in the mood for something different this time.

I was going through my quilt books and came across the Two Timer pattern in the first Stripology Mixology book. Let’s pull some fabrics out and make a block and see what we think.

I Like Thursday #315 from The Knitting Quilter

It's Thursday once again and time for things we like. Please visit LeeAnna over at Not Afraid of Color to link up with more participating blogs. I went for a walk in my neighborhood last week and came upon this mallard swimming peacefully in a rather murky pond. He didn't seem to mind! It was a warm spring day and I think he was enjoying himself!

I'm working on 4 corner blocks on the Whiskers N Catnip quilt. They will measure 12.5" square once they're all sewn together. This is just the middle portion. The ...

While We Were Away... from From the Strawberry Patch...

We traveled to western Illinois last month for the funeral of an extended family member. Beautiful country nearing the Mississippi River; rich soil, sprawling acreage dotted with family farms. There was a quilt in the Fellowship Hall there, this one commemorating the church’s 150th anniversary back in 2009. I'm drawn to them. While the guests that day were enjoying a lovely reception of foods

A Few Finishes from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

I'm quite pleased that there are a couple finishes to share today.

First finish are these leg warmers.  Yes, I know, I know ..... a bit late in the season as we are finally rolling into nicer weather.  At least, come fall, these will be ready to wear to help keep my legs warm.  There is enough yarn in the big ball, so another pair are ongoing now.  Maybe, I just might have two pairs ready to wear come fall?   For knitting, I did have to change my usual method to accommodate my hands and this new method works for ...
