I’ve saved peacock colors for years and don’t know why I never sewed this. Claudia cut the diamonds for me so it was time to put it together. I think I have enough for a second one. from Victoria's Life On A Page

Christmas Mat from The Knitting Quilter

Here's my Christmas mat all quilted and bound! I'm in the process of sewing down the binding by hand. It measures about 20" across.

I quilted curved cross hatching in the middle of the mat.

Then I went back to finish the rest of the mat. I quilted lines and arcs in the triangles. I also quilted wishbone in the larger triangles. I used a meandering with loops for the border. I love quilting small items. It's fast and very satisfying!

Have a nice Labor Day Weekend!

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.

If you look hard enough, 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,

First up, the Fabulous Features from Saturday Sparks ...

What I’m Making: Brooke Ervin’s Viral Cheese Bread from Jo's Country Junction

A couple of weeks ago, I saw THIS reel from Brooke Ervin on her viral cheese bread. In the video, she had a few packs of cheese that all only had a little bit left in them. I told myself then and there, on the day I had partial bags of shredded cheese, I was …

A play day.................. from Exuberant Color

Yesterday I couldn't decide what to work on so I didn't work on anything.  It's not that there wasn't anything lined up ready to work on, the heat is getting to me.  It got up to 93 yesterday with a dew point of 78 in the evening (tropical humidity).  I went to the grocery store in the middle of the morning for an ingredient for fudge that I needed to make for my out of state family.  There are 2 birthdays to celebrate so some of the family is traveling to see them and I'm ...

Little Lala ~ Sew & Tell - 8/31/26 from Melva Loves Scraps


We stand at the cusp on the end of another month!  The "ber" months are around the corner, and it seems that many in the northern hemisphere are ready for the change in the calendar and the change of the seasons... a new chapter of sorts.

Which brings to my mind my Bookish Journal Quilt.  While I've continued enjoying the audio books, the disruption in life had prevented me from spending much time in the studio... and the precious time spent there was focused on finishing my Little Lala Irish Chain Quilt.  But I'll hold those thoughts until ...

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

 I haven’t done one of these posts in a few weeks. I was absent from our Prayers and Squares group due to illness. This is a picture heavy post with quite a few finished quilt tops. Donna finished this lovely Churn dash top. I love the piano key border. Tammy has finished a couple of tops. For a beginner quilter, she sure is doing wonderfully. There is one called Tam’s Patch, a pattern from the Quilters Cache website.  And she finished another using up some fun bird fabrics with coordinating colours. She is also working on a Churn ...

Fitting Some Sewing In from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!


It had been nearly a week. But it felt longer.

The website issue over the weekend that continued into this week - an impromptu late afternoon 200 mile round trip excursion to Burnsville.  One group leaving, another group coming in.

Packing for India. (Yes, finally!)

I've had hexie time in the evenings where evening time was available, but really - not much sewing has happened.  And maybe that was a good thing.

DJ2 Finished Top from The Colorful Fabricholic

One of the things I wanted to get done in August was to attach the borders to my second Diabolical Jane quilt and finish the top. This happened, at the very end of the month. 


This version, DJ2, gave me more trouble than my first version. I miscounted the number of pieces needed, had to make adjustments, and this version ended up a little larger at 65" square. Although it doesn't look flat and square in this photo, it actually is. 

I like this version; these are my favorite colors, teal and coral.

I have fabric to piece a ...

Two Small Quilts from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. It was another rainy day yesterday. There was a meme on Facebook from a Portland weatherman that said, "Hello darkness my old friend." It made me laugh. Yep...that's the Pacific Northwest for you. We're told we have at least another ten days of gray skies and rain off and on. Hopefully, summer will return, and we'll have good weather for our trip, but we should all pack our rain gear just in case.

As for yesterday's sewing, Sadie was my sewing helper. Together, we got a lot done.

"Het Kersenmuisjes patroon is er weer" from Supergoof Quilts

 


Ergens in Nederland in een dorpje achteraf ligt een hele grote boomgaard.

Een boomgaard met prachte oude fruitbomen, en die fruitbomen zijn,...

kersenbomen.

De kersen zijn heerlijk, en weet je wat zo bijzonder is?

Er hangen altijd, het hele jaar door, kersen aan de takken. 

Hoe dat kan? 

Ik heb werkelijk waar, geen idee.


In de kersenboomgaard staat verstopt tussen de kersenbomen een Hollands huis.

 Een huis met een trapgevel, en in dat huis is de opleiding voor Quilt Coach gevestigd. 

Een Quilt Coach is iemand die opgeleid is voor het verzorgen en begeleiden van quilters.

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 ...

Farm Fabric! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I have to laugh at the comments about the higher toilets. I asked DH about it, and I got a typical male response: nothing. How can they go through life with such a lack of enthusiasm??? Oh well -- each to their own. I have enough enthusiasm for two people!

I have good news! All the class emails went out yesterday. And YES, there were a couple of glitches because I used the same information email for all four classes, but changed the dates and links, etc. And of course, I forgot to remove ONE sentence from the last group I ...
