Only one more block this month.

My Bundle came!

A bolt of White Confetti Cotton

A Charm Pack,  layer cake and 1 yard surprise, 

Chuck the Duck template.

We had our last Daughters of Utah Pioneers meeting  on Monday. 

We start again after Summer

We're growing in number!

Mother's day pictures with my Daughters

Happy Wednesday!

Missed my Monday- Wow Wednesday

It's a WOW Wednesday after a No Blog Monday.

I should have a lot to share.

Monday was a day to gather strength.

It also was a Tri-City Quilt Guild, run errands sort of day.

The fun part of my day was my Cousin's daughter came to Quilt Guild!!!

When she introduced herself I got a shout out.

I should have taken a picture. DUH!

I think this is the only picture I took on Monday.

Posted on IG and FB

I got a new planter rack to put outside. 

Ready for spring planting and warmer weather. 

It was a fun puzzle to assemble. 

Not as big as it looked online. Oh well!

Tuesday was an Open Sew Day...

I have deadlines.

I should be getting up early to stitch them.

I just love to stay up late and watch my shows that are finally premiering.

The Writers strike messed with my shows. 

Most are doing a last season, so I'll be sad when they are over.

Back to the stitching.

I took my two challenges that are due March 1st-4th.

I cut and stitched and stitched.

The tiny cutting of the between Pickets for my Picket fence.

Results only will do maybe two sides of the borders.

I'm working my way from the outside on this project.

I love how they turned out.

This is how my Daddy built our fence around our house.

I am inspired by the story this little Quilt will tell.

Did I catch the vision?

I never asked why he cut them and placed them this way.

Maybe my mamma had a say in it.

PATTERNS!

Not like every other Fence.

Built by my Dad, with his two hands and a skill saw.

I remember painting this fence...

My daddy didn't let me paint the house.

Now I need to make the 'PINK'  house. 

The screen door might be tricky.

This is the house in my Childhood memory.

Happy Wednesday, I'll be stitching.

I got my 3-Yard challenge put together and borders sewn. 

There will be Frogging, maybe.

Gotta lay it out to see if the borders work.

WOW-Wednesday

I am still coughing, but trying to 

keep my hands busy. 

I ran out of one of the fabrics I need 

to finish the Camo 4-Patch Trip

Lower corner

Working towards the middle.

I need just 7 more 4-Patches!

Now, if I could remember which Quilt 

Shop I got it from on the Shop Hop.

I found Lori Holts Sew Your Stash

Hometown tutorials on YouTube HERE

Each block comes in 5" and 10"

5 " is just a bit too, too tiny.

Here are the First 4 and today's #9

 The Wool Mat and Mini Oliso help 

   flatten the Seams.

It's a Christmas and Scrap Sew Day

@ Powered by Fabric downtown. 

I hope to send my Corn Bread down with someone.

If not, I'll mask up!

I hate to miss it!

Had to ask my Sister to sub at the Temple for me.

WOW-WEDNESDAY

I have to share the Biggest Bloom on my Hydrangea!

Had to double check that it was only one stem.

I finally got back to the Highland Quilt shop in Athena when the boss was there.

She had already hung the Quilt in the window so the picture taking was harder.

My Bounty of Fat Quarters

Purples, Aquas, Grays, Creams and Blacks

The prize for the Row by Row was 15 Fat Quarters

Highland Quilts added the extra 11.

26 fun Fat Quarters to make something pretty

Paired up for a contrast check.

Possible quilt pattern in my head.

Today is Lori Holt Day, so I did some pre-cutting.

I love using the Alphabitties and Wonder Clips.

Flower Blocks for the Raffle Quilt or my Challenge Quilt.
Watch and see...
 

WOW-WEDNESDAY

 My WOW- Wedednesday post is a real WOW!

Marlene at Kissed Quilts

Sent this Box to  me for Kimberbell Day.

I got notice Yesterday that it was sent.

It was on my front porch this morning!

That was FAST!

So What was in the Box???

A Retiring Kit to make the cute project Kimberly is doing on Kimberball Day!

I will have to watch it Virtually.

Also some Big rolls of Wash Away and Sticky Back stabilizer for my Bigger Hoop.

I got the Kimberbell Silky Solids Bundle and the CD's were a Bonus.

Last night we had our WallaWalla Valley Quilt Guild Annual July Potluck and Silent Auction.

I am so grateful for all the helpers who showed up!

Grateful for the support of Guild members sharing their excess stuff.

I took just a couple of photos.

I don't take pictures of people eating...

We doubled up on the tables in the diagonal rows with room to walk between on both sides.

We didn't fill in the Minimum Bid on our Bid sheets this year, by request.

A LOT of things went for very little $$$.

I have a few things I brought home and will get to the proper places ASAP.

I won't be doing the Silent Auction next year. Two years is enough for me.

Hope someone will pick up the reins and do it.

I think I am done with the Embroidery on the Book Titles.

I could do a few more. but it's time to get those borders on and quilt it.

I want to make another one. I found the Wood Look fabric yesterday I want to use.

Next month I will celebrate my 15 year Blog-o-Versary.

2008-2023

I've written a couple Thousand posts (actual count will be posted on the Giveaway).

Happy Wednesday!

I'm doing something different today.

I'll tell you about it later and share pictures.

WOW-Wednesday "Chillhowie"

 Tuesday was a Sew Day at Eddie's Powered By Fabric.

I worked on making more of the Big Blocks for my Quiltville Mystery.

SEW Many tiny pieces and parts in each block.

I should make 4 more so I use all the parts I've made.

 Today I'll work on the sashing parts.

The goal is to have this one done in time for the next Quilt Show.

I could even send it to Garden of Quilts.

It is probably too late for Sisters Quilt Show.

Yep, TODAY is the Deadline for that.

I just checked. The entry fee is $25

It's isn't done so I can't measure it... or take a picture of the flimsy.

It  will be my Summer Quilt.

Rhododendron Trail is too heavy for the Warm Nights.

My yard is all a-Bloom!

Our Quilt Guild in Walla Walla is having Marie Bostwick come in August.

I have all her books, I think they are already signed.

Excited for May 30 Release of Esme Cahill Fails Spectacularly!

It's on pre-order.

Happy Wednesday!

What are you working on?

WOW - Wednesday

 Stitching in the Afternoon.

I love the New Bella Box Bonus Designs.

I tried the Shop Local "Garden" one and it wasn't easy to change colors between.

This one was much better!

I'm glad I got a few Extra Totes.

Note to self: Wind extra Bobbins before starting...

My Bella Box should arrive later today.

I just need to sash these 4 pretty Blocks.

They are big compared to my usual size.

Missouri Star Quilt Company 

"Time Flies"

Jenny said the hour glass in the center is Time.

The Flying geese... fly

I have full bots of the Pink fabrics. 

Thinking about which one to use for sashing.

I have 2 weeks to get it finished.

Can Hardly wait for a road trip.

My Back and Neck might scream at me but I will make it happen.

Happy Wednesday!

I have a little more to add plus a Border.

WOW - Wednesday SNOW Day/SEW Day

Woke up to see if the weather lady was right.

YEP, Darn it!

Not driving the New to us car very far today.

This was last night at the car dealer - Corwin Ford

Bought a used Chevy Malibu!

Crazy skies driving home from the Temple, 

Paul was driving when I took this picture.

I might get a flimsy in the snow picture.

That means I have to get my warm clothes on...

YES! It's a pedal to the Metal day!

Flying Geese borders going on!

Blue 2022 RBD Block Challenge Quilt going on the frame.

Gotta take a break to ice my back...

Whatcha working on today?

WOW-WEDNESDAY

It's Wednesday again!

Happy February 

Machine Embroidery Month starts today!

I have added even more hours to 

#Thinittowinit 

                                                                  Aren't these cute Badges.

I should be getting a Charm that has all the badges on it from My Girlfriend's Quilt Shoppe soon.

I just sent in my 50 hour total.

I got this Bluebird fabric off the Free table at 

Walla Walla Valley Quilt Guild. 

It wasn't Quilt wide enough for the backing.

I had to measure and piece it.

Making sure all the Bluebirds were 

flying the same direction. 

On 'Betsy' ready to start quilting!

I found a Birds panto to use.

Ta - Done!

                                                      Just needs binding. Don't look too close...

A few birds flew off the edge and I need to pick a few errant stitches out 

from trying to fix a placement problem. 

Next up- from the same tote

The Blocks from Riley Blake Block Challenge.

I had a few parts left to sew for the chain blocks.

Then I laid it out and checked once or twice on the correct placement of the main blocks.

Had to align them just right.

The bottom 2 are swapped, oh well.

I think adding  a simple Border would make it fit the Bed.

It was to dark and cold to take a picture last night.

Today was my 3rd and final Embroidery Machine Class  at Janean's Bernina. 

I have learned a lot!

We only stitched on Stabilizer today.

Had to go get some Spudnuts!

                                             It was a good day, no Snow, it was predicted. 

                                                  I was home earlier than Paul expected.
