Design Wall Monday- November 2, 2015

Whoa, where did October GO???
My Goals for the month went awry for good reasons.
October Goals
1- Make Blocks for Guild and BOW. Made the BOM Block but didn't go to Guild
2- Finish the Vacation Time setting blocks- Flimsy- ???
3- Make some more Moth in the Window Blocks- Chose more shirts to incorporate.
4- Sew the #2 Grand Illusion Blocks into a Flimsy - ???
5-work on Christmas, (can't show that but I'm started on it.) YES,
 I want to have some Christmas Gifts to deliver this coming week-end.

My Block Count was only 12 this month.
Mostly Farmer's Wife 1930's blocks.

The good news is "Betsy" is FIXED!
An in home service call was needed and after a couple of hours,
 Betsy is working correctly again.
I tested on some extra yardage I had hanging around, then I put my "Cascadia" on.
I tried pinning it down, not the best way with a small quilt. I couldn't clamp the edges.
I tried out using my new ruler.
Way too many seams to cross made that harder.
 We will see if I take it all out or not. NO PICS!

Here's my Now and Then 
Halloween Picture.

Me in 2015 and way back for my TBT (Throwback Thursday) in 1977

We have a Trunk or Treat every year in the LDS Church Parking Lot.
I'm dressed as a "Quilt Princess".
Crazy I know! 
When I got the licence plate from Moses Lake this year for the Row by Row---
 I had to make good use of it.
A Glow in the dark Crown from JoAnn's and a Polka Dot skirt with blocks pinned on completed
the outfit.  I had to hang my Sew-in time Quilt on the trunk.
It says, "Winter - Spring - Summer - Fall, doesn't matter to me at all
It's Sew-in Time"
DH (Paul) was still working so he didn't get in on it this year.
My Ninja family came by as I ran out of Candy. 
(thanks to Noel for taking our Picture)
The Goodson's went ALL OUT this year. Cowabunga!

November Goals
1- Finish some Christmas Gifts
2- Make Blocks of the week for Farmer's Wife 1930's
3- Start the new Quiltville Mystery- Day after Thanksgiving
The Fabric Requirements are HERE.  I got my Color Cards!

any thing else that gets done will be Extra...

  1. Glad you got your machine going again.
    How good of you to brave the Trunk-or-trest. Ours is crazy, with three wards converging on the parking lot at once. Mostly only families with children show up--there isn't room for more than that, so we spend it at our daughter's home with the grandkids.

  2. Yikes! Christmas! I suppose we should all be thinking about starting on some gift making.
