Danish Scones

The quilt top is complete. The binding and backing have been chosen. All is in a separate package for the day when I get my quilting frame up.

This morning I had an epiphany on the way to work. My studio design was to include the quilting frame in the same room as the sewing machines. Now I am thinking that once I get everything out of the old sewing room and into the Studio I can set up the frame in the now empty sewing room and name it the quilting room. I can run a cable from the Dish transmitter in the Studio into the Quilting Room and set up a TV to watch my quilting and sewing programs. I will put the old DVD player in there and can watch all the movies that DH does not like.

What a mind bender!

Have a great day.

Fed Up and doing something about it

I have finally decided that I cannot stay in the living room while my husband soaks up "Ghost Hunter's", "24 Hours"(a cop show) and similar programs that I do not enjoy. This week I issued my desire when he is watching these shows. I will go into my sewing studio and sew. WOW.l

The last two evenings I have been working on my project for "Breakfast Club". We are currently doing "Danish Scones" and I want to finish my quilt top before the 3rd Saturday in May. May will be the start of a new project "Blueberry Cobbler". I will need to go through my stash and pick out a light green shade, a background fabric and two tones of blue...unless I decide to may mine "Cherry Cobbler" and choose two tones of cherry red.

Have a great day.

Recap of FNSI

I did participate in the Friday Night Sew In. I made 4 pillow cases for the Million Pillowcase Challenge. I forgot to take pictures and turned the cases into my LQS Saturday morning. Sorry there are no photos to share with you. Have a great day.

FNSI - Friday, April 15

Friday is that time again. The Friday Night Sew In. I intend to take my bunny slippers down to my Sewing Studio and get the sewing machine in gear. Have a great day.

International Quilt Festival -- Cincinnati 2011

The IQF Spring show is coming to Cincinnati in April. I have volunteered to work hanging the quilts prior to the show and to be a "white glove lady" called a guardian. Maybe I will see you at the festival. The more the merrier. Have a great day.

I haven't been quilting

The latest and last book in the "Earth Children" series comes out on Tuesday, March 29. I have been reading until my eyes cross to get through the previous 5 books. I will be able to download number 6 tomorrow morning on my way to work. I cannot believe that this is the final book in the series. The Clan of the Cave Bear September, 1980 The Valley of Horses September, 1982 The Mammoth Hungers Fall, 1985 The Plans of Passage November, 1990 The Shelters of Stone April, 2002 The Land of Painted Caves March, 2011 Knowing this author she may just have another book to add to the series. I will have to wait. In the meantime I have picked up my new Baby Lock Serger and need to find just the right place to put it into my Craft Studio. I have several UFO's that are crying out to me that they need to be finished. Have a great day.

March Friday Night Sew In

I am signed up again this month. Tonight I will be restoring my sewing room after the trip to Pigeon Forge, TN and setting up for Friday.

There are several possibilities to work on. I could layer the penguin quilt. I could work on one of the quilts I started a A Mountain Quilt Fest. I could work on some things for my grandson.

So many ideas and so little time. LOL

Have a great day.
