What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Well it is all sewed together but I’m not sure if it is done LOL – it is narrower than I imagined.  I mean I knew what the estimated measurement would be but it is narrower than I pictured in my mind.  Would be a good size for a runner over the legs perhaps or […]

Yesterday was a very nice day to enjoy outside a little bit on the porch reading.  It was a little breezy but not too bad.  We didn’t get any of the storms they were all from Memphis to Texarkana not in our part at all. I spent some time working on the Half hexies and […]

Big Half Hexies had some work on them, I have all pieces sewed into rows and then yesterday I sewed 3 of the rows together – I will do this two more times and then join to the top – all the rows are on the wall.  When I get them all joined I will […]

Finally yesterday I did get back to work on the hexies on the design wall.  I have one more row of pieces to put together – stacked and ready to sew. The design wall – the first 9 rows are sewed together – the rest need to be done so that will take a couple […]

Yesterday was full of color – while the wind was blowing wildly outside!  So very windy all of Arkansas is in high wildfire danger because of low humidity and extremely high winds.  Yesterday the state was fighting 38+fires – most of the were all in the eastern half of the state, I know of none […]

A little more was done on rows of half hexies for the wall – I am right now just stitching rows and then will attach them after I get them all done.  Five rows left to piece. Quilting on New York Beauty from Sunday night The hydrangea is growing  – I hope for no more […]

Yesterday was a lazy Sunday I spent a lot of time reading and a little time sewing. I went through my hexie box of pre-cut pieces selecting colors for the next set of four flowers – I have a lot of pieces – I went way over board cutting scraps and have no idea where […]

First from home – the two Shooting Star blocks are done so I will need to get busy and make another couple of them. More rows are put together from the Half Hexies – it is getting too big for the pressing mat so will need to take it to the kitchen to press next […]

Can’t believe this weather we are having – near 80 once again yesterday – windows open light breeze but not much.  Of course storms will move in at some point today it always comes that way but you know I looked at the outlook and other than some chilly nights coming up most of the […]

After getting home from Little Rock yesterday afternoon I just didn’t have it in me to do any sewing.  I sat out on the porch where it had reach 80 sunny degrees!!  I couldn’t be in the house the rest of the afternoon could I!!  I sat and enjoyed the sunshine and read a book.  […]

I was able to finish up the last stitching on this section of Noriko’s Star I was working on and take it outside for some photo’s – it wasn’t windy! And the sun was mostly shining.  Two sections left to make and then the 4 corners – this will still take until the end of […]

I didn’t want to start sewing the half hexies together just yet yesterday while I looked at it a little while longer so I got busy cutting more scraps that were left over from it and from the Flying Pansies quilt that I did a couple months ago – that is where the Kaffe scraps […]

First it was more than half way through the day yesterday when I realized I was not getting comments from the blog post to my email like I normally do – I think I ended up answering all of you but I might have missed some.  No clue why that happened and don’t know if […]

Still working on the Half-Hexies on the color – I swear this is where it gets complicated – the more you put up on the wall and then see one piece that doesn’t look right where it is causes havoc!  Your intention is to move one piece to another and you end up moving 10! […]

Well I cleaned off the design wall and I’m ready to start over again – I am going to go across the wall instead of down because what I have planned is too long for my short wall and I don’t want it on the floor – so you will be getting a sideways view […]
