Home Again from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. I'm happy to say we're home at the Three Cats Ranch this morning. We'd planned to spend the night in Grass Valley, Oregon. As I told my friends on Facebook, we arrived at the RV park at 2:00 p.m. The place was run-down and scary looking...as if it might be the lair of a serial killer. We'd both been thinking silently that we should just head for home. When we saw the RV park, it made the decision to continue on home an easy one.

Leaving Klamath Falls, we ...

Abbey Gate and more from Night Owl Quilting

Marlene made this stunning quilt from her fabric stash. The pattern is a Bonnie Hunter one called Abbey Gate. You really have to love making HSTs to tackle this one!

Marlene selected the Sweet Pea pantograph which really compliments the pretty little prints in so many of the red and cream fabrics.

Marlene kept digging into her scrap stash and put together this 64 patch quilt. All those squares finish at 1"!

The popcorn pantograph was a lovely way to finish this one.

How to Find Quilt Guilds Near You (And What to Do If There Isn’t One) from Patchwork Posse

If you love quilting, chances are you’ve heard about quilt guilds.

Guilds have long been a place where quilters gather to share ideas, learn new techniques, show off finished projects, and connect with others who enjoy working with fabric and thread just as much as they do.

For many quilters, joining a guild can be a great way to stay inspired, learn new skills, and make friendships with people who understand the excitement of a new quilt project.

But finding the right guild — or even finding one at all — isn’t always easy.

Let’s talk about a few ...

Rainy Day from South Jersey Quilter

Rain is good, because it's melting the remaining snow. It makes us thing spring is close!

I did this fabric book, finished it yesterday. Decided I don't care to do the other two, so I started a bag for next years donations to the library's craft exchange.

The scrap afghan, which is about half done, is on hold due to running out of scraps! It's #3 for this year. I gave one to Jacob and Molly for their new-to-them house, and the others are waiting for someone to come along and need/want one.

My son ...

Little House Sampler Quilt Sew Along ~ Harvest Basket - Block #3 from Melva Loves Scraps

Welcome back! It is time for block #3 of the Little House Sampler Quilt Sew Along.

Book #3 is the story of Almonzo Wilder's childhood. Unlike the other books, which follow Wilder’s own life growing up on the American frontier, Farmer Boy tells the childhood story of Almanzo Wilder, Laura’s future husband. Set in 1866 in upstate New York, this book offers a vivid and detailed look at what life was like for a prosperous farming family in the post-Civil War Northeast. Farmer Boy is structured around the calendar, offering readers a month-by-month account of life on ...

Desk Day Done! from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!

So what if my dreaded Desk Day took two days, and I've still got a form to fill out that I'm waiting for more info on after sending them an email requesting such?

If I send a reply email, with questions, at least they know I'm taking care of things as I can, right?

That means that the afternoon allowed me a couple of hours of machine time before the March Quiltvillians started arriving!

True Blue - Progress from Grandma's Red Needle

I worked on True Blue in January, when the chosen RSC color was blue.

Unit #1 and #2 were done, and part of unit #3.

The last days I'm working on True Blue again

The last 4 blocks of unit #3 are done

...and I'm almost done with the corner units.

I have to make 160 triangles! I'm almost there! 24 to go!

I'm making it scrappy; one triangle at a time. I have so many 1.5" strips to use. I was struggling with the first corner units; the pressing direction (on the pattern). I ...

March Madness from Lovin' Life At The End Of The Dirt Road

And it has nothing to do with basketball. The fact that I even know there is a March Madness related to basketball is surprising because I've never even watched a basketball, or baseball, or football game. Well, some football in college, but that was many moons ago. But this last week was just full. We're always busy, but when busy removes me from my dirt road, it unsettles me. Yes, I'm

Next UFO projects from My Sewing Room

There are always several UFOs in my sewing room. Things I started and then set aside for any number of reasons, or for no reason other than I can't resist a squirrel. I'm trying each month as I finish one UFO, to choose the next one to work on.

Shadow Stars is one of those abandoned UFO projects. It's a Quilt of Valor begun about this time last year, but I only got 3 blocks made at the time. The pieces were even all cut for the remaining blocks. Since RED is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color ...

Updates on houses, technology and so much more! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

Oh my—I love the comment: once it goes in the giveaway box, I don't look back. And that is me as well. There are times when I think I should have one last look in the box to see what I am donating this time, and I just can't be bothered. I decided to give it away; I don't need to see those items ever again. Way to go!! It's all going to happen slowly—we can't erase years of accumulation overnight. Baby steps!!!

I have a few updates -- they are mostly for me ...

Prepping for quilting............. from Exuberant Color

It was time to prep two more quilts to be sent out for quilting. This quilt top is only 53.5" wide so this 58" black and white fabric is sufficient for the back. It was nice to not have to piece a backing.

I had already searched through the Wishwell Weather Report fabric and found 2 pieces that would work for the back. The apricot is full width and the green is about 14" wide for this backing. Batting was cut for both quilts and then I turned on the iron and pressed the 2 backings.

I knew I ...

Laundry, Museum & Cross Stitching from Quilting My Way

This morning, I worked on the laundry. Getting all the loads I didn't get over the last week and running out of clothes. I still have a couple loads to do, but at least I was able to do quite a bit today. I ran the Roomba when Debbie called to head to the museum.

Debbie picked me up to head over to the museum to talk to Donna. I took over the 3 quilts I had as well. We stopped at DB and I got another $15 gift card, since I forgot the one I have.

Arrived at ...
