WOW Wednesday!


WOWSER Did MSQC get my Order wrong!
Yesterday I was expecting my Bundle that I ordered over a weeks time.
I got 3 Notifications from FedEx that my order was delivered with the same photo.
This wasn't in my Order for sure, 
But I love the Chuck the Ducks that came.
I will send the Block of the Month Kit back.
I resisted doing something, lol
This is month 5, I don't really need to start it now.

My Week wasn't filled with much Stitching.
We had Temple days and a Concert to go and watch.
"You Can't Stop the Beat"
Tri-City Youth Choir
Both Grandparents with 2 fun Grandchildren.

I missed the UFO Day and Open Sew days this week.
With Construction if I don't get down there early, it isn't worth the time.
I finally printed the next Riley Blake Block Challenge and have it sewn this Morning.


Hubster wants me to go outside,
 I'm freezing so I don't want to catch a cold.
My view from the driveway, Working man likes my Wagon/cart!

 The Blue bells have overgrown so he is taking some out.
Lilies will bloom here next.
I got mulch to put around them.
Tulips are all gone.
My Coleus only survived in one pot.



It's Balloon Weekend so I won't get to sew too much.
Mother's day is sad when I have to order my own Fudge and cake.
We'll see what happens on Sunday.
47 Mother's days without my Momma!

I posted this in 2016
Never a day goes by that I'm not grateful for my dear mother who brought me into the world, spoiled me rotten and loved me to the end of her days.
Missing her and doing my best to follow her example.

The last picture that I took of Her with Daddy!

Garden Path by Minki Kim

 6 block in one day Whew!!

I figured out how to make the HST'S and Hour glass blocks out of the Jelly Roll strips.
That helped me use that beautiful Wilmington fabric in more blocks.

Today is Scrap day at Powered by Fabric. 
You know I want to go...
What will I work on????
Come back Friday and you'll see.

Throwing back to when I was about 2 years young
So many years under that bridge...

My Planted pots survived the freeze warning, YEA!

2 More blocks added to my Catching up project.

Monday- after Retreat

Our Walla Walla Valley Quilt Guild had a Retreat
in Lewiston Idaho last week.
I couldn't get there until Thursday night.
It was Shelly's 1st Retreat.
The Lodge was quiet and we Sewed and Sewed!
The Food was good and we ate way too much.
This is the end of my Vacation time after our week in California.

I had cut out a couple of Blocks for the Vintage Christmas to sew up at Retreat.
Using up the leftover Lalyer cake from the FQS Christmas SAL last year.
Christmas Star, City Sidewalks, Glimmer & Cozy Star Blocks.
Bonus HSTs turned into tiny Hourglass units.
HSTs would be way to small.

I was tired of tiny block parts so I got out my RBD Block Challenge book
This is the last Block posted.
"Woven Together"
I will make this one again.
Not enough contrast on the light side.

The One Sister Design Class project got some time at the Retreat on the last day.
She said the blocks reminded her of the old cameras that looked like this.
I finished a few more stars.
Gotta cut more 1 3/4" strips of the Neutrals and 1 1/2" of the colors.

My "Easter Joy" Tulips were blooming for Easter.
No Mission Reunion is planned, so we get to stay home for General Conference.
Today was UFO Day, but I've burned out and needed a rest day.

I think it's Spring Break in Tri-Cities. 
Usually it's Grandma Quilt Camp, but that hasn't been scheduled yet.
