Summer Memories, Finished!
I am so proud of this quilt! Summer Memories, a pattern by Susan Ache, is finished. The sew-along was sponsored by Fat Quartershop, based on a quilt pattern from the book by Susan Ache called Summer Memories. The quilt pattern itself is called Picnic, I believe. Honestly, I found it rather tedious to make. All…

Haunted Halloween, a Finish!
Wooooooooo, it's a great feeling to get this spooky little wall hanging done! The project was sponsored by Fat Quarter Company, and the block patterns are completely free. It was an easy and fun project to work on. I hope I can get it out to be quilted (and back!) in time to use it…

Where Did My Sewing Mojo Go?
This is my poor neglected sewing table. It has not seen much action in a while. I don't know why, but I just have not felt like sewing lately. I've tried making lists of the projects I need to work on and itemizing the actions that need to be taken in order to complete them.…

Smile, You’re On Camera
I had braces as a kid. For years, it seemed. And when they came off, did I wear my headgear and retainer as directed? No, I did not. And, over the decades, my teeth have crowded forward, making my smile irregular and to me, not very attractive. My teeth are not as bad as they…

4th of July Home Decor
I have been having fun pulling out my 4th of July decor. This little quilt is one of my favorites, a pattern called Endearments by Betsy Chutchian. I looked for a link to the pattern, but could not find one. It may be out of print. Betsy has a unique Civil War Reproduction style that…

Haunted Halloweeen Week 3 and Salmon Bowls
This is a mystery sew-along, so I am not sure exactly where we are going, but this layout looks like a possibility. I finished Week 3's block, the haunted house. Which is a stretch. It kinda looks like a haunted castle, but that's ok. And the cat is huge in proportion. It's ok, the sew-along…

Designer Mystery 2022 Blocks #9 and #10
We got busy with some home organization projects at the end of last week and over the weekend, so not much sewing happened. I did finish block #10 of the 2022 Designer Mystery sew-along. It's the block on the bottom with the large navy square design. I think that is a cool block, and I…

Well, That Was Easy
What an easy fix that was. This is a much better look. The tail on this kitty cat just wasn't working for me. Donna said it looked like it got stuck in a door. lol Why would anyone think that tail looked good? I think it is just strange. Apparently, a lot of other people…

Haunted Halloween Week 2
This kitty is the second block in Fat Quarter Shops' Haunted Halloween sew-along. That tail is just not working for me. Watch for my next post, I will re-do it so it looks like it is curving instead of being broken off in two places. I think a couple of well-placed half square triangles will…
