About Me

My photo
I'm a quilting, knitting, sewing, cooking,reading, gardening nut who can never find enough hours in the day to get it all done. Then again, getting it all done is out-of-the question. I'm too easily distracted.

Working on a few things….

I took the Blue Skies quilt to be quilted.  The quilter did an oversized stipple on it.
It sounded like a good idea at the time, but now I'm wishing I had chosen something different…with all the seams that quilt has I think it would have helped to insure that it would be able to handle a whole lot of use in the coming years.
I haven't bound it yet, but heres a couple pics:




















I also had a chance to work on a painted sign I saw on Pinterest quite awhile ago.  It has been on my to -do list for a long time…..
A few touch-ups, some sanding to distress things and a spray of clear coat and it will be ready to hang at the farm.
















I better get back to work…there are still plenty of projects waiting for me.

That's a lot of work on that quilt to not be totally sure it is going to hold up. I sure hope it does, because it is beautiful. Now as for refreshments, I'll be over soon for some!
