Sew n Tell Saturday

I knew I'd made a few more 1930 Farmer's Wife Blocks to share this week.

 Had to use the Roosters for this one.

I'm glad so many of the stories relate that playing with your children is such a good thing to do.

Taking time to enjoy the little things life hands you.

Patience was a fun one to find fabrics for.

Life isn't always lolly pops and roses - is it? 

Those pinwheels looked like lolly pops to me.

Patricia is pretty in pink and yellow.

I have 2 blocks I still need to make then I will have all of them so far.

I forgot to post yesterday, did you miss me?

DH and I had a "White Friday" cleaning at the Columbia River Temple.

We forgot to make an appointment for a session so I did do a little bit of "Black Friday" shopping.

Most of my shopping is all done now!  

I went downtown and did a little Shop Small Saturday and Cyber Shopping too.

More Secret Christmas sewing and mailing of packages is left to do this week.

Friday Finishes- 1930's link-up

I actually finished it Yesterday.   I get to show it off today!

My Vacation Time Quilt Top is DONE!

I love how the border frames it perfectly.

Meanwhile in the Quilt ZONE...

The Bow Tie Quilt is half way done being quilted.

 Betsy is skipping stitches now that I tried to restart it.  So frustrating! 

I really need that Lucey machine that 

APQS is offering. 

Time to do something else & try again later.

I stitched a few more 1930's Farmer's Wife Blocks

 Once again I loved the Stories that go with these blocks.  

Choosing fabrics to go with them 

There are a few left to catch up on.

I'll link up with Gnome Angel HERE.

Just one week until Bonnie's Quiltville MYSTERY starts.

I have my Cards!

Design Wall Monday & 1930's FW Linkup- 11-16-15

Linking up for the 1930's Farmer's Wife HERE

I'm not caught up totally but I'll catch up soon..

I made Milly and Margaret this week.

I noticed the Bingo blocks and I hadn't made my #1 Addie.

It got made just in time for me to be part of the Bingo!

 The cow had to be centered in this one because of the story.

Most of my week was spent getting ready for my Quilt Class at Sew n Vac.

I had 4 signed up when I got there.

  One person put the wrong date on his calendar so he'll come next week.

Two of the others plan to come back to make more and learn the Binding tricks.

It was a fun class!  Long but Fun.

We played with Fussy Cuts and Basic 9-Patch tricks and tips.

Everyone was at a different level.

With permission here are my 3 students.

The 9- patches in this one had a fussy-cut center block.

She loved that fussy- cut rose so much she had to buy another yard to cut out some more.

We learned where that 1/4" line is and how to get the most from a Seahawks Print.

 I can't show the finished products now...Christmas is coming- you know!

I like seeing the different colors and putting things on-point.

I told them Bonnie Hunter says, "Show me your Block on your 'Design Wall'."

They were good and played along!

I had hoped to get the borders on my Vacation time or the Guild A-Z quilt but it didn't happen.
