I decided to move this from leader/ender to main project status.

The top looks wrong. The darks and lights line up.

I figure that out and did a bit of editing and now it’s on the frame.

I like how it’s looking so far!

Have a great day!

Our quilt group is going to do a UFO exchange. I’m finally going to get rid of this project! I love the block pattern, but not in love with these fabrics. It does occur to me that I could use my GO! Irish Chain block to make these…but they would be a different size.

Mister and I saw this movie. It was very good. The casting was excellent.

Little Penny is so sweet!

The pups are all getting along well!

This is how I have felt the last few months, but I think I’m on the other side now.

“Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.”

Have a great day!

A walk around my backyard, that is!

I love all the textures of the cacti.

Palm trees always delight me.

This narly thing is a totem pole cactus.

Limes!

A few rock finds.

Have a great day!

I had completely forgotten this quilt, until I found it while looking for something else. Enjoy!

Finish It Up Friday

My challenge quilt is done. 

I’m not thrilled with the quilting. Red or black thread would have been better, but I used what I had on hand.

I do love the backing fabric. I used a facing instead of a binding for this one.

It ended up about 30 inches square. I learned a lot making this. I might just do it again!

Have a great day

I don’t remember where or when I picked up this yard of fabric.

The strips are five and a half inches wide.

This is the info on the selvedge.

I wonder what I could make with this bit. Have you ever used a fabric like this?

Have a great day!

Moving right along here. I got the blocks all done at the quilt group sew day last week.

I am really loving this die. You could make a whole quilt with all light blocks, all dark blocks, or half and half as I am doing. And it would be such a great alternate block.

I think it would be really cool with a scrappy background and a consistent solid chain. Hmmmm….

Have a great day!

Gracie

Penny

Wait, what?

Yes, that is a new face. My pretty, little, copper Penny.

Mister Wonderful knows what a tough summer this has been. Losing Harry was hard. When I held this sweet four pound girl, I fell immediately. He was signing papers so fast, I hardly knew what happened!

She is a precious little baby. She is half chihuahua and half dachshund, also known as a chiweenie.

I tried to get a photo with Gracie for size comparison. She can walk under Gracie’s belly without touching. They are getting to be great buddies.

Have a great day!

My recent haul from Goodwill. How can I pass up Anna Maria Horner, Denise Schmidt etc?

Our weather lately.

This is so me. I always think the best part of going anywhere, is coming home.

This is our Gracie. 🤣

The mister teases me sometimes about getting a Bronco.

Have a great day!
