Birthdays and Chunky Churn Dashes from The Modern Diary

My birthday was last Thursday and I had a really nice day! Kathy got me the Once Upon a Book Club selection and I saved it to read that afternoon. If you have never seen this before, you get a book and several gifts to open on certain pages of the book. The gifts relate to the story. (If you get this and have not read August's yet, do not scroll down as I do post a picture of what the gifts were--do not want to spoil it for anyone!). I loved this so much I ordered another one ...

A Flimsy Finish and a Start from The Modern Diary

I finished the Jelly Snowflake Mystery Quilt top. Turned out cute and most likely will be quilted by me and become a baby gift. I never seem to have a shortage of folks who want a baby quilt so I am focused on doing more of those. To that end, I have been Video Sewing with BJ (and Andrea) and BJ was telling me how much fun she was having with Bonnie Hunter's Chunky Churndash blocks. That got me thinking I could use my kid fabric and make some more baby quilts!

I kitted up oodles and oddles. No ...

Sewing, Gaming and Quarantining Continue from The Modern Diary

I needed some cheery sewing so I finally made a Garden Party Table Runner. I decided to make it to match my quilt (from the Quiltville Cruise) with the green running throughout. These blocks are really fun to make and come together quickly.

It is now all layered with batting and backing and ready for me to quilt. Here are Sunshine and Bug who cannot resist getting into the photos.

Someone on Quiltville showed a layout of the Easy Breezy leaders and enders with friendship stars. I had just been digging in my leftover bin and realized I had a ...

Video Sewing with Friends and the Jelly Snowflake Mystery Quilt Block 3 from The Modern Diary

Today Barb and Dr. Kathy sewed with me over Facebook video. I got part three of the Jelly Snowflake Mystery sewn up and had to lay everything down to get a guess at what things will look like. No idea which direction things go in since it is a mystery but fun to play anyway.

The three of us are doing this mystery together so when we can sew on Sundays we try to get together which makes it fun. Barb got hers done and Kathy is working on part two since she went camping last weekend.
Here is Barb ...

Sewing, Reading, and Cooking...oh My! from The Modern Diary

Finished part two of the Jelly Snowflake Mystery quilt. Clues come out each Thursday. Barb, Dr. Kathy and I are keeping up. I know a few of my other quilty friends are doing this one too. Hard to resist with the ease of this one!

Barb sent me the last block (kangaroo)and I added it into the baby quilt. Cannot wait to find a local long armer (do you know any in Milwaukee) and get several of these quilted.

We had to know what Sunshine Cupcake Brady (out latest dog addition since we lost Zoey and Daisy within days ...

New Quilting Studio and Already Sewing! from The Modern Diary

Super happy with our new house and the decision to make the living room the quilting studio! We made the dining room the living room and put the kitchen table in the kitchen. We use every inch of this house and it is cozy and organized. Took me about ten days to get everything where I wanted it...lots of naps involved and I had to rest a lot more than I would have liked, but it got done and now my reward is sewing!

We had to trash the old ironing board set up, but I liked it so ...
