Flowers of February
It's the last day of February so what better time than to review all the flower blocks that were released for the month.
Machine Quilting Day 9
Day 9 of our machine quilting by inspiration. Last week I mentioned making larger designs for a border or over all design - an iris was the subject. This week I am continuing on with that same thought using a rose leaf instead.
Fiesta Bargello quilt
At the beginning of the year we loaded a new download into our catalogue called "Fiesta". This is a bargello quilt pattern which has two sizes, a wall hanging and a bed quilt.
Eggplant
I've been trying to eat healthy, well I usually do but probably not as healthy as I should. I've decided I really should eat more fruit and vegetables. Today I want to share with you one of my favorite veggies, stuffed eggplant. I added a little salad on the side.
Purple Dawn jigsaw
I thought Purple Dawn would make a challenging jigsaw. Did you know you can change the cut? I set it on 240 piece classic cut for an extra challenge. Make it smaller if you wish.
Friday's flower Orchid
Orchids come in many shapes and colors. I have collected a few photos from different areas just so you can see.
Machine Quilting Day 8
For my machine quilting days so far, I've been working with mainly fill-in quilting stitches. For the next two weeks, I want to use a more open design which could be developed into an overall quilting design or border design.
Patchwork Quilt - stepping stone
Stepping Stones was a quilt I put together as a custom made job for a customer. It didn't have the printed blocks in it as I have in the photo below. It was just made in blue and yellow squares. Very easy to make with large pieces.
Time flies
Wasn't it just the other day that I was holding my first born in my arms? Yep, just 30 years ago today, but it seems not so long ago. She is the eldest of my four children and we have experienced many happy times as she grew up, along with some trying times as well.
free applique
How much fun is this? A few years ago, Margaret enrolled in my free online class. Instead of making the book cover, she used the applique to make panels (one on the front and one on the back) for a purse.
