Have you ever used one of these? I saw someone use one on a video and decided I wanted to try it. It seems like it would be handy for sewing in the RV.
One of the seams below was pressed with this roller and the other with my regulator iron.
Can you guess which is which?
The one on the left was pressed with the roller! I think this will really come in handy.
You can purchase one at Fat Quarter Shop.
Have a great day!

I made 17 nine patches as my leader/ender project and then changed my mind.
I’ll come back to them, but I decided to play with some little cheddar squares I found. So I’ve been making these bits as leader/enders instead.
I am loving this so far!
Have a great day!

What a month it has been! I can’t say I’m sorry it’s over. I did finish some sewing projects, mostly for my mental health.
The next is just a top, but I’m counting it as a finish!
It certainly helps the productivity to use leftovers as starters for new projects. Have a great day!
Our hometown just added the second largest mural in the US! We had to drive by. I only got this one photo and it certainly doesn’t show the whole thing, but I love it!
Daughter #1’s family recently got a fish tank. Winslow was fascinated.
After reading The Women by Kristen Hannah, I wanted to watch this series. Hubby got me the DVDs so we can watch it at the campground. We are watching the Ken Burns series on Vietnam first.
I need to get up early so I can have my coffee in silence before anyone talks to me. 😂
Work on the house continues. Here is a before (actually midway) of our front door.
And here is the after. Much better.
Have a great day!
This is my second quilt made as an homage to the work of Anni Albers. You can find the first one here.
Isn’t this backing fun? It was from an old IKEA duvet cover that Daughter #1 used for curtains.
This little finish ended up at 16 by 20 inches.
I didn’t think ahead when I cut my HSTs out. I cut the squares later and it wasn’t until I took this little bit outside for photos that I noticed the whites didn’t match.
This last photo was taken inside and you can hardly tell they are different.
I’m okay with it. It isn’t a museum piece, and I’ve had this happen before. I’d be more careful if it was a more important project.
Have a great day!
Here is a post from five years ago. I still adore this little finish. I often think of dear Diane at O’Quilts who sent the little top to me. Enjoy!
I’m not sure why vintage UFOs are so appealing to me, but they sure are.
You may recall that this little patchwork piece was sent to me by Diane from O’Quilts .
These first photos were taken before washing.
The rest are after washing.
Oh, that glorious texture!
As soon as I saw this piece, I knew it would make a perfect doll quilt for my little doll bed. And I was right!
Thanks again, Diane! Have a wonderful day, everyone!
I got some work done on this while the carpet guy was here.
The minimal quilting and large stitches means it’s going quickly! I just have to resist the urge to double the amount of quilting. 😬
Have a great day!
I decided to use that bin of two inch squares as my next leader/ender project.
I’m making nine patches. I’m sure I can figure out a way to use these some day. They will finish at four and a half inches.
I spent about twenty minutes matching up lights and darks so the next batch is ready to sew.
I haven’t forgotten my tiny nine patches, but I left those at the RV so they will have to wait.
Have a great day!
This is coming along slowly. But progress is progress.
The number of bits on the wall is going down as well, another indicator of progress.
It reminds me of this quilt:
I actually had a buyer for that one, but in the chaos of moving across country, I lost it! Ugh.
Ah, well. Have a great day!
