Wow-Wednesday What am I Doing?

Well, let me see...
I should have stayed home to Quilt.
But 'Betsy' was being naughty again.
Lydia's quilt is on the frame.
I tried a Newer pattern.
It stitched out and then started stitching in one place again. UGGG
My Clover Seam Ripper and me
 had to Un-sew that starting of stitches.
I had Tested on a few Mini Quilts to see how Betsy was doing. She did fine with these...
Except for the Feathered Wreath on the middle picture on the right.
This is the 2nd time to try and Quilt my 
Cascadia from Lori D of Humble Quilts.
That SAL was in 2014.
I made the Flag blocks back in June while I was having Grandma time in Richland.

I'd found out that Tracy Byrd was going to be at the Umatilla County  Fair this Week.
I didn't want to go alone.
DH has to get up early, and he doesn't enjoy the concerts like I do.
So I called my Sister!
We had a bit of fun, and I got her home before midnight.
Here's  a few of the other things that I  liked at the Fair.
Big Ribbon Winner 

Cute Dresses quilt, it got a Red Ribbon.
I  like that it was creatively made. 
Not perfect, but sew cute.

A crocheted baby dress

Legos used as a Plant pot.

Cute, but more likely made from a kit.

We could go to the Fair without getting an Elephant Ear!
The Umatilla HS BluCru work the booth.
When I lived in Umatilla,  our Ward  did the Elephant Ear Booth as a Fundraiser. 
Oh what fun we had. 
Umatilla Fair isn't the same since they moved it away from Downtown. 
I missed getting a Taco Potato from a
 Local  booth.
The Concert was Free with Admission.
We had pretty good seats on a Bench. 
Even if it was right by the fence between the Reserved seats.
I slept in so, now that my posting is done, 
I'll be heading downstairs to see if 'Betsy' will be Good!
I have Fair Quilts to finish.

Design Wall Monday - Getting it Done

It has been a Great month so far!
 'Betsy' and I have quilted a few projects.
Since it is so smokey outside and 
DH (dear hubby) needed the car...
I finally got Elizabeth's Quilt Camp 2018  project off, the binding is sewn on. 
I was on a Roll,  the Red Snappers made re- loading and Quilting the side borders, fast.
There was a bit of reverse stitching
 on the Corners. 
(Note to self, take a picture of the quilting)
Next up was this Disappearing Pinwheel Baskets project I started back HERE.
I got these neat clamps from Grace Company. I had to try them out, lol.
Then I  thought that was a fun pattern.
I decided it was good for Lydia's Quilt.
The pattern is 'Alfresco'
Just one more Quilt to get finished for Fair.
Olivia's was loaded on Betsy late Saturday. 
I'm not liking the quilting pattern much, so... I'm reverse  stitching again.
I need to find a better design, with not so much back-tracking.
