What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. It was another busy day yesterday. It seems I'm still catching up from a couple of doctors' appointments over the past couple of weeks. Possibly things will settle down for a short time. We're gearing up for a trip next month, though. That always means there's lots to do. I'll say more about the trip as it draws closer. Just know we'll be making a loop around Washington State. 

Mike and I have lived in Oregon since 1978. Washington is just about an hour north of us, but we've never ...

Good morning, my friends. It ended up being a very busy morning yesterday. My morning to-do's took me well past lunch time, and so it was late in the day before I could get to any sewing. No matter. The goals I'd set for the day were accomplished despite the lack of time.

Of course before I could do anything else, I did some slow-stitching, finishing the final embroidered block for Le Jardin.

Good morning, my friends. Except for grocery shopping, yesterday might have been the most routine day of the week. It was nice to just settle in for a normal day. Included on the day's agenda was to bake a Magic Apple Plum Cobbler. The plums and apples came from our own trees. As I've mentioned many times, our poor little apple tree has never thrived. Nevertheless, it generally produces enough apples each year to make this one single dessert. Why is it magic? Because it is so magically simple to make.

Good morning, my friends. My day went off the rails yesterday. Things were going along as per the usual routine, and I was minding my own business when my doctor’s office called. And I’ll say right up front here that everything is fine with my nose. I’m about to lead you down a worrisome garden path, but I want you to know that everything is A-OK before I go any further.

They called the day before too (the day after my Moh’s). So, I was kind of surprised to hear from them on Day 2. The ...

Good morning, my friends. Since we last chatted, a lot of water has passed under the bridge. Thankfully, Tuesday’s Moh’s procedure is in the rearview mirror. My doctor and his staff made the whole experience as pleasant as possible. Still, it took four swipes to get all of it, and my nose looks like it's been through a wringer...or something...maybe in a boxing ring or something. In any case, it's done, and I'm glad it's done. Yesterday had me feeling a little dragged out, mainly from the stress of the whole thing ...

Lots happening on the table today.

The outer part of the drawstring bag is finished in terms of surface stitching.

I now need to make cords for that.

The small piece of patchwork in the centre will be added to the larger piece of patchwork on the right whilst the two tiny patchwork pieces on the left are just an idea I am playing with. 

Busy fingers here!

Good morning, my friends. It was a lovely day for a walk with Matthew yesterday. There was almost no time for sewing. But you know me...no day can start without a little slow-stitching and yesterday was no different. I took the first stitches on this final block for Le Jardin.

Good morning, my friends. A lot was accomplished sewing wise yesterday. Possibly the Lemurs used up my supply of sewing mojo, and I needed a break from sewing for a day or two. Yesterday saw me picking up the pace again. First, I finished January's block for Pieces of the Heart.

It seems like a long time since I did any notebook stitching.

I came across this page yesterday and I'm tempted to continue where I left off here.

There are also new plans for patchwork, an idea I have for a new surface.

Too many ideas, too little time.

Good morning, my friends. A little more was accomplished here at the Three Cats Ranch yesterday. Have you noticed how there haven't been any pictures of cats lately? I blame them for the lack of progress on things. They've been outside a lot with this nice weather. Clearly, they have not developed a reliable work ethic. Oh well. We soldier on, don't we?

My first stop was in the kitchen to bake some zucchini bread to take to our neighbors. There are almost as many zucchini bread recipes in my collection as I have zucchini. Think of ...

Good morning, my friends. It was an unplanned day of no sewing. There was time for sewing, but I think I just needed a day off from it. Every time I thought about walking to the machine, I didn’t. I'll get back to it today. The only sewing I did yesterday was to make a little more progress on the cat for the Pieces of the Heart project.
