final

I have finally come to the decision to not continue this blog. They are deleting feedburner service, that sends the blog to your e mail. Thank you for reading my blog and encouraging me these past years. Thank you again. Martha.

A Little Early

I decided that with June being the start of " Row by Row Experience", Minnesota's state Quilt Show, Pinetree Patchworker's Guild show, my free time might be limited. There is also a Minnesota shop hop to consider and Crow Wing County Fair in July and August. So since I volunteered to be in a small quilt swap in a quilt shop hosted by my guild's president, I thought I better get started. First I picked out some fabric and then a pattern. I had a Fig Tree pattern I had not made yet. So I was ready to go! Make six of these blocks.... Put them together with sashing and spool cornerstone blocks.... Add a small border.... Put on some buttons to imitate knobs and some black straight stitching to resemble a needle, quilt with an elongated serpentine stitch and add some binding. Now all I have to do is hand sew it down! I am definetly ready for the August swap. Martha.

Change of Pace

I needed a change of pace , some time to catch on other things too. So now I have a pic of the next block of our summer buck blocks... .. Also Sherri falls of " Little bits of This and That" which you can find here has begun a new sew-a-long for fall (pumpkins and all you know). I finished the quilting on my "Runners Rock" table topper and am now sewing on the binding. I received my fall issue of Primitive Quilts and had to of course sit and read it immediately! Don't you just love it! So much in just one magazine, so way above the rest. Also I have been keeping a little something from you. I have added another hand project to the mix of things to do while watching BAD television. Lucy Boston 's POTC (Patchwork of The Crosses) has joined the mix. I only have just begun, and I just can't sew fast enough! I only have two blocks partially done , but I thought I would reveal them because it is so hard for me no...
