It was last year when I purchased several pre-printed panels. I made a small wall hanging as a daily reminder to me to have a grateful heart. It resides on the pantry door and I see it often during the day.
A couple of months later I put together another small wall hanging to use as a gift. I used an accent color to frame the main part, and added butterflies for an accent.
That left a larger section to divide up or use together. I knew I wanted to add a narrow frame around the next batch and blend ...

I have seen some great humor come out of the pandemic. It helps to laugh.
One of my one monthly goals for May, was to make headway on the unicorn quilt. I have not wanted to work on this at all. I don't have a pattern and have already demonstrated my lack of math skills in figuring the piecing. I measure, and measure, and calculate, and cut, what I need. And... it doesn't fit.
I have most of the blocks done I think. I am using a layer cake and a panel. I am using a background white ... read more

Remember the panel quilt I started last month?
Finished with flange binding in red with black. I thought it really set off the "stained glass" style border.
Once I washed it, the quilt softened up and got all nice and cuddly. It is not large, only 48'' by 58'' but enough for a personal throw.
The quilted texture shows better here. I only did a large meander in the center along with some free hand outlining of the main motifs like the barn, deer and some trees. I added a few swirls in the sky for clouds. The center section ... read more
Working away and making a huge mess in the sewing room. I will have to take a few days next week to get things back in order.
First up......from Panel to top is the seasonal throw. The color is not good on the outer border....it is all in gray tones. It reminds me of looking out thru a window with stained glass around it. I have the red dot backing cut, washed and pressed. Ready for pinning to quilt. The binding is cut and ready to stitch together.
It may have taken a couple of design tries to ...
I turned the calendar over to a new month and I am shocked to see how little I have to show for the last month! I worked on a few small things but nothing to completion. So, to remedy that I have been quietly working on a seasonal quilt.
When we went to NC for apples and upholstery fabric for the window bench for Sir Old man, I saw so many beautiful panels there. I will admit to being a panel or pre-printed snob over the years. LOL.....it came back to bite me as I came home with several ...
I thought I should give you a behind the seams look at my latest piece: ”Some like it hot”. It’s presently featured at the Fall International Quilt Festival in Houston in the IQA exhibit A world of Beauty. How it all started I started this project during March break. I had sent out my Remembering Sochi … Continue reading "Behind the seams of Some like it hot"
