Sparkle Pop

Correction! This is called Star Pop NOT Sparkle Pop.

I’ve long admired Emily Dennis ‘ pattern called Sparkle Pop. I rarely work from patterns, so you know I must love this one!

Anyway, I figured a way to make it using my dies. I won’t give die numbers or measurements since this isn’t my pattern.

Time to start stitching!

Have a great day!

Slow Stitching Sunday

This quilt is difficult to photograph.

I have one row of fans completed.

Time to turn the corner on to a short side.

And some words of wisdom.

Have a great day!

This and That

If I were to have business cards…. 😂. Just kidding!

Bonnie from Quiltville posted this chuckle!

These trees in the Midwest are something else! This is a 200 year old oak. The trunk is massive.

Too funny!

And I leave you with a picture of Gracie wearing her new shirt. She is bad to the bone!

Have a great day!

Finish It Up Friday…..Almost!

I got my little top completed, minus the borders.

I didn’t pack enough of the blue to do the borders.

Here is a reminder of my inspiration quilt. I could do narrower borders, but it wouldn’t be the same. So I’ll wait until we get home.

I’m still calling this a finish.

Have a great day!

Throwback Thursday

This is the pattern I planned to follow for my Oops Baby Quilt! 😂 Maybe next time I’ll get it right. Have a great day!

Finish It Up Friday ~ Moda Love

Posted on May 29, 2020 by katyquilts

I should call this the 24 Hour quilt! It was so fast. I started it at noon one day, and I had it quilted and bound by noon the next.

I used a Pottery Barn duvet cover on the back.

And the extra binding I made came in handy.

I kept the quilting simple.

This finished at 64 inches square. Have a great day

Progress!

This picture looks a lot brighter than it really is!

I’m really enjoying making these blocks. And this sweet baby girl. Had to share another photo. After taking this, she crawled in my lap so sewing time was over.

But I’ve definitely made progress. Just a few more to go.

Have a great day!

Grandma’s Diary

I spent some time reading hubby’s grandma’s diary while visiting my Mother in Love. I’ve shared a bit of this before, but I enjoy these glimpses into her life so much! I hope you enjoy them as well.

Have a great day!

RV Sewing!

We stayed put for a few days, so I got out my sewing machine. I love my little set up.

And I had a very cute helper!

I’ve been itching to start these blocks. They will finish at six inches.

Have a great day!

This and That

Every time the mister gets out of the RV, Willy has to get in one of the front seats to see where he went! It looks like they are sharing a good joke here.

Gracie Bear is getting SO tall!

If you haven’t seen this, it was a great movie!

I thought this was interesting. We are definitely fans of In-N-Out.

Yep, this would be me. 😂 In case you were wondering, I do NOT drive Dora the Explorer, our RV.

Have a great day!
