WIP Wednesday!

Hey everyone! I hope you are doing well & staying safe & healthy. Spring has finally sprung….I can sew with my window open. It’s great. I love hearing the birds! So do the cats LOL. A lot of the time I sew with background movies on…my absolute FAVOURITE is Jane’s Austens’ “Pride and Prejudice” the 1995 BBC version. All 6 glorious hours of it. What is your go-to movie/show to watch while you sew? As always! It’s WIP WEDNESDAY!!!Link up what you’re working on in the comments!Don’t forget you can…

The first WIP Wednesday of May!

Finally May!  Getting warmer, and we are able to be outside more and more! Yay! I hope you’re still working away & being safe & healthy. I’ve still got projects to finish. I know.  Nuts. Like, it’s crazy how many projects just…sat. For years. I mean some were my love projects;  like the low-volume scrap quilts, and the rainbow block scrap quilts.  Scrappy quilts are never quite finished, until you finish them. I know that makes sense, somehow. So, what’s your week been like?  Link up!! brag a bit!   …

WIP Wednesday! Yep- double checked. It’s Wednesday.

It’s Wednesday again! Crazy how fast time is moving !  I know I always say that but…it really is going fast, even in this time of quarantine. I think the hardest thing during this time of isolation is missing our family & friends.  While our day-to-day working has pause, Life has not.  Birthdays, Births, Deaths….things are still going on. My heart breaks for those losing their parents & loved ones during this time.  I know things will get better; and I don’t mean to be all serious.  And there are…

WIP Wednesdays – Netflix & Sew…

Hey all! It’s Wednesday!! WIP day…and…. a *gasp* ….confession…. I’ve had a thing for Jason Bateman since he was on Silver Spoons.  I was 10. He was 12. Le sigh. Now I’m …older. Still have a sweet spot for him. I’ve been watching Ozark the last few weeks. It’s dark. But really good. (And there’s scene where you get to see his bum. Woot!) But I digress….. Time to get out & dust off those long-neglected or brand new projects! For me, I’m working on getting through my half finished/half…

WIP WEDNESDAYS…….Rainbow Postage Stamp Quilt WIP….

And now it’s April; Easter has come and gone. The world is a different place; and we are all adapting. Some days, I’ve got a lot of energy, and buckle down and sew, sew, sew. Other days, I have my coffee, watch the birds, and just sort of…wander around. I’m doing my best though to plow through all my old projects…my WIPS, UFOS and other planned items.  This is an old unfinished post I found sitting in my Drafts; from  *gasp* August 2018!  I had a “Postage Stamp Quilt* on…

Spring (!!!) Cleaning

It started snowing overnight….yesterday it was plus 8!!   Today…. cold and it’s snowed alllllll day. So, THIS happened outside. It didn’t stop until oh, 7pm. SO, since I was snowed in, I decided to finally, FINALLY attack my Sewing Room of Doom. Since I moved in back in May, I haven’t really had time to git in here and go thru stuff. Like, the filing cabinet. And um, bins and bins of fabric. I’m so embarrassed by how much of an explosion I created I couldn’t even post photos.…

Checkerboard Top Finished!

Just a quick catchup on the progress of the Checkerboard Quilt.Not the best pic; sorry. It’s a bit rumply. The top is done; it is a bit bigger than I originally intended; it’s twin sized, and I was going to make it a lap quilt but;sometimes they have their own minds. I used a jellyroll of Moda 30’s solids and Kona Cotton in ash for the checks and some border and then Kona Coal for the darker grey border. I think I am in love with Kona Coal, yessiree.  I…

Checkerboard QIP!

Hi there! I’ve been wanting to make this pattern by Molly Deschenes over at Apple Cyder for awhile now.  When I found the Moda 30’s solids jellyroll combined with Kona Ash; well… I knew it immediately;  THIS was the fabric! Isn’t it amazing when you find the fabric and have that AH HA! moment? When you know *exactly* what you’re going to make with it? I love that. And this pattern is super easy to follow; once I figured out the whole left/right things. Ha. Here is the QIP: (Quilt…
