Monday Stitching on Betsy


Well, it's Monday again!
This what I played with on Friday
It was Scrap Day at Powered by Fabric!
I started making the 4-Patches in just Purple.
Thought about it and put in some more colors this time.
I had to do some frog-stitching on the two Blocks I had made.
The Solid Squares were not in the right place.
The pattern is called "Plaid 4-Patch"
I'm 1/4 done with the Quilt.

July is here and it's time to turn in my Row By Row Quilt.
I swapped the top and bottom rows so the Picket Fence is on the bottom.
Got it put on "Betsy"

Chose a simple Quilting pattern called "Charms"
See the Butterfly?
Hubby couldn't see it, he says he doesn't see patterns.

All Quilted and ready for the Binding.
Not enough time for getting it all on and tacked down before the Sweets Game.
I can turn it in on Wednesday.
I'll message a picture to the owner and she'll count me finished today.
I did a stitching on a t-shirt to match the Quilt.
I sipped a few of the steps in the pattern.
Puckers happen...

Happy Monday!
Hope you're getting your stitches in, lol
Gotta make a salad for tomorrows BBQ.

Finally Friday - Row By Row begins


 It's Row by Row Time!
It started June 1st.
Today was the first chance I had to check it out.
Only one shop locally, (within 30-45 minutes) is participating in 2023.
Highland Quilts in Athena, Oregon.
Can you say daytrip...?
Her kit was in Batiks so I bought yardage of her Grunge to make the row.
She asked if I would bring a winning Quilt back to her.
Of Course!
I won there in 2016
Home Sweet Home was the Theme.

I called Kissed Quilts to have her mail me a kit. 
That is allowed this year, HURRAY!
Thanks for kitting your row up in different fabrics.
She collaborated with 3 other shops to make some real cute flowers.
Lilies, Sunflower, Daisy and Bleeding Hearts.
(photo borrowed from Kissed Quilts)
They are paper-pieced but I guess I'll just have to work with it.
I really like those Bleeding Hearts.

Happy Donut Day!

Long story- Short
I'll never get locked out of my house again!

Isn't that a cute Key??
