What’s On My Design Wall
I have recovered from my sewing slump already, but had to share with you what appeared on my empty design wall last week. Eva was deeply troubled by the wide empty space and took pains to fill it up with Works In Progress. Is that cute or what? Looking forward to sharing my new project…

Crop Circles: A Finish!!!
Well my friends, it is a finish! Crop Circles, a pattern by Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Company, made with Australian designer Jen Kingwell's new Gardenvale fabric collection. I admit, I was calling this the Quilt of a Thousand Steps because there was so much to making it. Lots and lots of prep work…

I Got Nothin’
No sewing so far this week. I just haven't had it in me for some reason. I've been pretty active of late, so I suppose I just need a break. I have been playing with Eva, doing some extra work at the shop and reading. Enjoying the weather before it gets too hot. I better…

Ashcombe, Together At Last
Yesterday I buckled down and got the rows all sewn together for Ashcombe. It still needs its piano key border, which will finish it off nicely. I have it draped over the upstairs railing for the photo. It would have been a good idea to give the top a good shaking to get all…

Granny Knows Best
Isn't that a pretty sight? An entire fat quarter of Fancy by Lily Ashbury, all starched and dried and ready to be cut out. I started a new project! Do you remember the Granny Square project everyone was working on three or four years ago? Well, I was inspired to resurrect that concept…

What Do You Know?
It all started out in the garage, where I store labeled bins of my fabric stash. I have a couple of metal shelving racks that hold the bins very nicely, with some spaces in-between. My problem is, my husband sees those little empty places on the shelves as an invitation to plop some completely non…

Retail Therapy
I ordered a couple of things from the Fatquartershop and when I took them out of the box I was so excited I took a couple of pictures to share with you. First up are refills for the Sewline glue pen I was telling you all about. Great for appliqué. Next is the Farmer's…

The Garden
One of my favorite things is to take my beverage of choice and wander out into the back yard and check out the garden. This is one of the planter beds, and my word, things have really taken off since I last posted on it. See that? Tiny little tomatoes! The veggies are exciting, but…

Crop Circles Blocks Sewn Together
Crop Circles blocks are now sewn into rows. I probably should have spent more time stewing over how to arrange the blocks, as I see I have some same color center circles next to each other. I just kept it random and that is how it ended up. Next up are the borders, the side…

Crop Circles Blocks Are Done!
Woo Hoo! Happy dance going on here. I finished 31 Crop Circles blocks. Love every single one of them, and only need 30, so one will have to go on the back I guess. Aren't they cute? Love that Gardenvale fabric by Jen Kingwell. I think it worked out so well for this pattern. Next…
