Home Again, Jigitity jig!

I have made it back safe and sound with new experiences and of course new fabrics. Also new kisses and hugs from grand daughters (grand son was away at school) .  We will have to wait until later to see him as he is going abroad this summer! Congrats and be safe!! 
I also went to  eat and view Paula Deen's new restaurant inside Harrah's Casino. Don't gamble but my daughter is a fan and so is my sister and they have been to other restaurants of hers and her sons and love their cooking.  Either the casino did a poor take on her cooking or I was expecting too much.  I was not at all impressed! Not even with the decor. The food I found was bland ,middle of the road stuff. The staff was slow and not helpful and the place was not busy at all!!
On my visit to na friend of my daughters and did a little sewing for her. She also graciously showed me her little studio where she does scrap booking. Really neat! and organized!!




My son also made us some cupcakes with fun in the middle which was something new we tried.  They were good!  More later about fabric!!  Talk to you later,martha

Onward!

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.

Daughter Called

Image
My daughter called and asked if I would make her a couple of quilts! Of course I said yes, I love sharing my quilting with her. She  found a block she liked on pinterest in black,greys and white. I drew out my pattern on graph and began piecing until I got this.... and I found the most perfect soft snuggle backing.... So I now just have to take it to the quilter! I have also put up a small Christmas tree in the living room. I finished a small churn dash quilt of Fig Tree fabrics that I started at retreat in the beginning of November. I also finished my candle in the window log cabin quilt.... I started a few circle  blocks. I am going to use various blue backgrounds with my Kaffe and Tula scraps. All for now,chatter later, Martha.
