A Little Of This & That!!

This small quilt is a Kathleen Tracy design "Crosses Morning" from one of her books titled "Prairie Children and Their Quilts". It's in the works as I am quilting it now-----this is one of my U.F.O.'s! Check out Kathleen Tracy's blog post which she wrote, when Marge Pearson, Linda Meyers and I attended a "Cabin Fever" retreat in 2012 at the Grout Museum, Waterloo, Iowa. We had a great time!  Click on this link.    http://sentimentalquilter.blogspot.com/2012/02/cabin-fever.html Finished and mailed 40 "Star" reproduction (civil War) blocks. Barb Vedder, quilt maker, designer, teacher and blogger is hostess of "The Star Swap 2020". Click on:   funwithbarbandmary.blogspot.com    Check out her Star Swap 2020 for tutorial. Looking forward to receiving 40 blocks from other swappers. Up for making the new "Farmhouse Love" which my friend Karen Walker designed? Karen, is a pattern designer, ...

It's That Time Of The Year Again!!

Fanny likes decorating for fall ...she has her little pumpkin pale and ready for beggars night!      Made this quilt a few years ago. One of my favorites!  "Bad and Happy Jack's" a Fon's and Porter design. Some are happy and some are bad🤐 Love the candy corn fabric. He is a happy camper!! He is not happy..where is my candy corn! Tee hee 🐱maybe the cat ate it!! Another must is Mr. Scarecrow. I was in a swap and "Montana Weber" was my partner. We made and exchanged three pumpkins for each other. These are the ones I received from her yesterday...look who has them now!!  She should receive hers Monday. A wagon full of pumpkins.   Miss Witchie saying.... "Boo & Scare"! Always fun to display the c.c. stitch pillow hanger. A "Lizzie High" design.   Made some Salsa a few weeks ago ..still displayed on the counter. 😊 Below are the Hummingbirds trying to fatten up before going South on there long journey.   Have a great month!  Stay safe. ...

Why quilting is such a great hobby for me.

I find large quilts rewarding to make. However, my real love is making small (doll) quilts since I enjoy playing with color, prints and scraps. My reward comes more quickly! Finished piecing this star quilt today and will hand quilt.  I  used the ( Tri-Recs) ruler. The package comes with two pieces: one labeled " tri" and one labeled "rec." However, for this quilt, I used the "tri" ruler. Lots of triangles  in this pattern to cut out and this tool was a life saver!   The last few days have been really hot (90+)---I'm back indoors. Fortunately, tomatoes etc. grow on their own! Recently we were flipping channels on T.V. and came upon the program, " Hoarders". Later, while stitching ( small) quilt and viewing T.V.--- with broad smiles ( guess who) walked into media room with huge stack of small quilts. Without finding near all ( guess who) counted 76 (small) quilts and suggested title for " new" reality show! It's wonderful to...
