I recently learned of this book and treated myself to a copy.

It is a great read if you are interested in dating fabrics.

Another puzzle finish.

There is a lot of truth in this:

So true!

Mister made this and it was so yummy!

Have a great day

No finishes to share today. I’ve had a rather unproductive week in the sewing room. But in a crazed fit, I grabbed this bin of vintage scraps.

I decided to make my version of a vintage doll quilt I saw online.

Did I finish? No, I did not. Could I have finished? Certainly. It wasn’t a time issue, I just was unmotivated.

So this is real life. Have a great weekend!

I thought I’d share some of my Christmas-y quilts today.

Have a great day!

I haven’t put a lot of thought into this leader/ender project. I just grabbed this bin of 2 1/2 inch squares and some plain white squares.

Just pairing them up and stitching print squares to white squares.

Who knows where this will end up?

Have a great day

The blocks are all sewn together and it is time to decide on birders. I’ve had this bit in my stash for ages and haven’t found a good use for it.

I really love this stripe, but probably don’t have enough.

I think I need to frame it before adding that serpentine stripe.

Oh, yes! That’s the ticket!

Have a great day

Is this looking familiar?

If you said yes, you wouldn’t be wrong. I’m making a larger version of Summit Stitches.

I’m loving this one as much as the first.

Have a great day

I finally pulled this out again.

I decided to add a few bits while Mr. Wonderful watched football.

Maybe I’ll finish this before the decade is out…..or not.

Have a great day

Hmmmm…. There’s a thought…

A recent walk after the rain.

I love my grand dogs!

Sunsets are so pretty here.

Another puzzle.

This could work for me….

Have a great day

We are still doing a bit of rock hounding, and I’ve had the tumbler going.

I have so much to learn. This is my latest batch. It’s a mixed bag. Some are pretty good. I had hoped that most would turn out better. But it’s still loads of fun. Most of these were picked up on our trip last summer.

And yes, the next batch has been started.

It is just so beautiful out in the desert.

The mister is a good sport about my hobbies.

Do you see what I see?

A sweet piece of chalcedony!

I was hoping to find fire agate, but came home with a bucket of this instead. Not valuable, but I love it.

Have a great day!
