<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 13.3333px;">Today was a blustery day and we just needed some good old hearty soup. I made Taco Soup</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 13.3333px;"> with homemade garlic bread and avocado slices, cheese and a dollop of sour cream.</span></div>

This soup changes as ingredients are available. I get told to "make that taco soup" and I have to think what did I put in it. So this "taco soup" I wrote down. The vegetables vary. I use whatever leftover veggies I have in the fridge. Tonight was potatoes. I used my homemade <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/lfpjbnh0rmfzr0k/Taco%20Seasoning.pdf?dl=0">Taco Seasoning</a> Try this soup, it's yummy and hearty. See the recipe below.</div>

<span style="color: #121212;">I received my Domestic Treadle from my mother. It had been stored in her silo for about 15 years. Prior to that in storage elsewhere. I never knew she had one until we were talking one day about me buying a sewing machine so I could start teaching beginning sewing. I wanted my student/s to be able to have a machine to sew on in order to determine whether they were really interested in sewing. With the knowledge of a sewing machine, they could then have a bit more knowledge when purchasing one for themselves. In this conversation, she told me of her grandmother's treadle machine. She said she had it and it was in the silo. At that point I confiscated it and took it home with me to Oregon. It was a couple of years later that I began reading a blog from </span><a href="http://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/my-vintage-machines.html">Bonnie Hunter</a><span style="color: #121212;"> and saw all her vintage sewing machines. That was the fire that got me thinking of having my treadle serviced.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've named her Belle after my great grandmother. Mom told me that she received this machine as a gift from her husband shortly after they were married. I looked up in our family history and they married in 1891. This machine is at least 123 year old.</div>
<div style="color: #121212; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="color: #121212; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt; margin: 0in;">
My service technician was having a hard time getting the screws to come loose that he said "We may just have to let this one go". I said "Really" Then he asked me what the story was and I told him. I think at that point he tried very hard to get "Belle" working for me. He did it and I'm so happy this machine can be kept for my second granddaughter. She has a real passion for sewing so I think this has her name on it.</div>

I'm in the process of copying the important parts of the other blog into this one. I don't want to loose some of my best posts. We'll start with Potstickers, which was dated 4/7/2012.<br />
<br />
I have made these Potstickers several times, They are a hit with company. Great finger food for parties. Start by preheating a medium a large frying pan with about a quarter inch of oil.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Combine all filling ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.</div>
Lay your wrappers out on a floured board.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Fill each wrapper with about a tablespoon of mixture. Wet with water top and one side along the edge.<br />

<br />
Fold and pinch together with fingers. Place on floured surface until ready to fry.<br />Fry in oil turning when browned. Brown both sides. Place on a wire rack with toweling underneath rack.<br />
<em>The filling can be made a day ahead of your event. They can even be put in the wrapper. Cover with cloth and place in fridge. The day of your event, take the potstickers out of the fridge and let them come to room temperature. </em><br />
Enjoy. These are wonderful. Make the dipping sauce and don't eliminate anything. The taste is wonderful.<br />

In July, I got a new do, retired and moved back to Montana, my homestate. I am now in the same state as most of my relatives, Mom, Brother, Daughter and her family (4 grandkids), uncles and aunts. So far I am enjoying it. I am also looking for a place to live that can house my longarm. Seems that with all the Balkin activity the housing is a premium here. I have a few people looking for just the right place.<br />

I hope to be blogging more now that I am more or less settled. Packing a household took me 5 weeks along with working. That is something I had said I never wanted to do was move. It's so painful.<br />

I said goodbye to some friends.<br />
<br />
Also in July, we had a family reunion. My daughter and her husband helped me to pull it off. It had been in the planning stages for a year. We had 60 people show up for the weekend. It had been ten years since I had seen everyone. New additions, husbands, wives and children had grown up.<br />

I headed to Kamiah and on up thru Lolo, Montana. This was a great drive. I've only taken it one other time in the winter. It was night and I didn't appreciate any of it.<br />
<br />
Well that's the last few months in a nutshell. I hope to be posting more often.<br />
<br />

How time flies. I've been busy with my website designer on my Website. It should be launched in a few weeks. I never knew how much goes into the design. Michelle is a superwoman with all her knowledge. <br />
<br />
We've gotten our tree trimming done and just in time. The blooms are spectacular. <br />

This is one of our apple trees.<br />
<br />
I've had to thin the rhubarb as it had already started to bolt. I hope I get lots for pies, coffeecake, freezing and canning.<br />

I spent last weekend at the <a href="http://tvqg.wordpress.com/">Tualatin Valley Quilt Guild Retreat</a>. I thoroughly enjoyed the scenery, food, camaraderie and quilting. Our long weekend was held at <a href="http://camptilikum.org/">Tilikum Christian Camp</a> outside of Newberg in Yamhill County. I snapped a couple of pictures of some of the gals....<br />

There were 37 quilters. We took up two floors. We had a white elephant exchange which was great. The competition for a couple of the gifts was extreme.</div>

In the mornings I stepped outside and just enjoy the dawn. Across the highway from the retreat was a farm. The roosters were crowing from dawn till dusk. You can't see the farm from the video, but the scenery is wonderful.</div>

<br />
As I reached for the Kahlua last night to splash into my hot Black Mango Tea, I noticed how in need I was of replenishing my stock.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is an emergency. If I make Kahlua, it's recommended that it age for about 3 weeks. Even if I make it today, this supply will not last.<br />
<br />
Even so, I decided not to wait any longer. You can see how I make <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/search/label/Kahula">Kahlua</a> on this post. <br />
<br />
Ahh, it's made so now I need to mark my calendar. March 8th.<br />

I save all bottles with a screw cap. I even used the Clear Springs bottle I just poured into my mixture. I didn't even wash it. I'll bet that one will be just a little better than the others. If you make Kahlua, I would love to hear how you make it.</div>

I had just finished up all my clues and was looking forward to no sewing until Friday. Well the group on Facebook couldn't resist showing how some of their tops were going to look. So I gave in and put a few up on my Design Wall to take a picture. Here's mine:<br />

Some of the quilters are turning every other Birds in the Air block. I kinda like the look so I'm going to turn some of mine and see how I like the look on my quilt.<br />

Only the chevrons in the block are turned to make the new block. I'll have to put more blocks up and get a bigger effect in order to decide.<br />

I've been slowly recovering from my foot surgery. I'm not having to rely on crutches or my knee wheeler. I still have some swelling and need to keep it elevated. I'm seeing the doctor on the 5th and I want him to see some progress. My boot hopefully will come off around the 17th, then I'll be able to drive. I'm just not use to relying on others for help. I guess this is a lesson on humility. I'm learning.<br />

Sunday the chickens were free ranging and making a ruckus in the front yard. I went out there and I think they were worried about this:<br />

Celtic Soltice. What can I say. We are on Clue 5 of possibly 6-8 clues. We're not sure, Bonnie's not spilling the beans. After all, she says it's a mystery. I have all of Clues 1,3,4, and 5 completed. I'm still working on Clue 2. <br />

I've been using my Scrappy Triple Irish Chain as my Leader and Ender. I like the idea of a <a href="http://quiltvil.startlogic.com/store/media/leaderendercoversm.gif">Leader and Ender</a> and eventually that becomes your main project. I am working on my sister's quilt and have to put the borders on and sew the appliques on. I should be able to get that done by July, when I see her. <br />

Here's the border design. I cut them out on day a few months ago when we had a power outage. This one is from the Fons and Porter magazine.<br />
<br />
Last of all but definately not least. I won this Japanese clone on ebay last night. I just not sure which Singer model it is a clone of. I need to find out so I can get a manual and learn some about it. I'm excited to get it. I did send the Seller a link on how to package a machine for shipping. She's mailed a couple but I just wanted to make sure this arrives in one piece.<br />

I have to elevate my foot often and it seems that I only last about 30 minutes at a time standing or sitting. I've finished <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/12/celtic-solstice-mystery-wk-1.html">step 1</a> and <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/12/celtice-solstice-step-2.html">2</a> and have about half of <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/12/celtic-soltice-step-3.html">step 3</a> and 4 completed. I'm enjoying the Mystery so far and surprised to hear that we will be putting some of it together soon. <br />

Christmas Eve is tomorrow and my family celebrates the Eve. We will have our traditional pound cake with a bean in it ( from my paternal grandmothers side), goulash and lefse from my maternal grandmother's side. I enjoy the traditions, it makes me feel close to my family, those here, out of state and not here. <br />
<br />
I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a great New Year.<br />

I have been having to use an rolling office chair and now a knee walker. I am horrible on crutches.<br />
<br />
Step 2 Chevrons are still in the making. I have 20 completed. I think they are turning out great.<br />
<br />
Step 3 Pinwheels are coming along, although I have only finished 6. This is an exciting mystery. I can't<br />
wait until I can stand on my own and get to cutting, ironing, and sewing.<br />

I am using the pinwheels and my scrappy Irish Chain as my L&E. I think I'm liking this method of quilting 2 quilts at once.<br />

Thursday I spent having a bunion removed from my foot. I was able to get a couple of my fat quarters in to my bedroom and since I didn't have access to my rotary cutter or sewing machine, I marked and cut a couple of my pieces. I marked my quarter and hand sewed a couple of blocks. I see where one is flipped. I can fix that when I can stand and move a round a little. I've never done any hand sewing except for binding so this was an experience. I'm not sure how to start or stop. So I started in from the corner and backtracked. Then in the end I retraced a couple of stitches. I didn't tied off. I hope this is good.<br />

Don't forget, I can start receiving your quilts in mid January. See my special on the left column of my blog. Now let's see what everyone is doing.

I decided to make the Small size quilt. I have all the orange backgrounds cut for a large, but I want to make some progress with this mystery. I will probably use the pieces for the large as my leader and ender later on. Now my leader and ender is my scrappy Irish Chain. I have used mostly my stash for this mystery, only purchasing a couple of fat quarters in orange. I have a great stash, that will most like last me a lifetime. Pictures? Okay,<br />

Actually I rode with him to Lakeside Oregon, dropped him off early this morning. Now I'm having breakfast and headed to the fabric store. Yes I brought my sewing machine, camera, and kindle. I brought a #quilting project with me to work in. It's a quilted hotpad. If it turns out they may be for our Iams Family Reunion white elephant event.

My website is under construction. I hope to have it up and running in the next two weeks. I imagine that a couple of the pages will be "under construction" but it is a work in progress and I'm working with a gal who has a life also. In the meantime, I am having a short Christmas Sale. Any quilt (except king) that I received in this month will be quilted with a medium meander for 30% off. See details on the left side of this blog. I hope to be able to quilt your Christmas present for your special person. </div>

I'm taking a break from it in order to finish my <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/10/get-r-done-october-2013.html">Get R Don</a>e project. My Carpenter's Star. Judy gave us the <a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/10/get-r-done-october-2013.html">pattern</a> and she also made a<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5PkqyMTv7A"> You Tube</a> on quilting feathers. Actually there are 8 or 9 videos. I'll be working on that and then this will be the first month I've completed my list.<br />
<br />
I attended <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200654511022953&set=o.543322179041103&type=3">MQX Quilt Festival </a>in Portland last week. What a fantastic show they put on. I took classes with Jamie Wallen, Irena Bluhm, Claudia Pfeil, Linda Taylor, Lisa Sipes, and Angela Walters. I barely had time to take a quick tour of the show quilts and merchandise. I'm just sorry to hear that they the next time they will be back again is in 2015. <br />
<br />
I'm trying to get some longarm work done today because I want to be able to join<a href="http://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/live-quiltcam.html"> Bonnie's Quilt Cam</a> tonight. I'm not sure what I'll be working on during her cam but I'll get it figured out. It's such a great way to get some work done with company. <br />

I was getting ready to work on Doug's quilt and found that the back was smaller than the top. I had to order fabric to get it done. Well with the thanks of <a href="http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2013/09/quilt-cam-9302013.html">Bonnie's Quilt Cam</a> last night, I was able to get three borders on the back and the fourth is cut and ready to go.

Today, I'm working on the border but without the border fabric. It's on order. But I am preparing my applique for the border.<br />
<br />
This is an <a href="http://www.fonsandporter.com/articles/Emilys_Wedding_Quilt_fat_quarter_friendly_shoo_fly_54_40_quilt_block">alternate border design</a> in the magazine for the border. I love it and my batiks will look great in the shapes.<br />

I really need to be working on quilting my son's quilt. I found the backing wasn't large enough for the top. The fabric was ordered and received. I have no excuses. Today, I will add the extra to the back and I have decided, after watching Eleanor Burns that the quilting will be only a single embroidery design placed strategically around the quilt. I've decided which design I want to use already. 701. That's so I won't forget or in case my post it gets lost.<br />
<br />
I was looking for a picture and couldn't find one. So I took on of the top and back.<br />

I had canning to do and I didn't want to take time away from this to do that.<br>
<br>
The top is pieced except the borders. I wasn't able to purchase enough of the background material and I guess I thought I would piece a border. I've decided that I want to applique the border and for that I needed some ric rac and more background fabric. I ordered it today. The ric rac is already on its way. I'm not very imaginative about it. I've decided to make the borders like the alternate quilt in the Fons and Porter Love of Quilting magazine. I like it. <br>
<br>
Here's way I am.<br>

I'm working on building up my longarm business and according to some experts, the first three years need to focus on getting my name out there. I decided to make a tote for a longarm quilt show I'm attending in October. MQX West. </div>

I had an extra block from the quilt above. The other block is a block from a string quilt. I made them out of the same fabrics from the first block. I've SID'd on the tote and now I'm thinking of how to quilt it. Next week I'll have some process to show.<br>

During the weekend, I canned applesauce, dehydrated apples, dehydrated potatoes. I didn't make a dent. First I couldn't find my cone-shaped mill. After scouring the house we decided to purchase another one. I do not like it. It is so much smaller than mine that it was hard to get all the fruit. I wasted so much. The next day I peeled and cored the apples. I definitely got more fruit but it was time-consuming. I'm not anxious to process much more at this point.<br />

I didn't have any more time to sew blocks into rows. One row of blocks is on my sewing machine ready to go. The top half are all sewn together. Looks like I have three rows to go. I did spend some time online purchasing some ric-rack for the vines. I'm going to have a border with applique flowers, birds and butterflies. Just like in the magazine. No imagination. Well, it will look great and I don't want to make the body any larger.<br />

This morning I had my normal routine of reading my favorite blogs and of course new posts on Facebook. I found a recipe for <a href="http://www.recipegirl.com/2013/09/12/cinnamon-twist-pastries/">Cinnamon Twists</a> by Recipe Girl. I decided to make them. Instead of using buttermilk, which I never have, I thought I would substitute with milk. When I looked, I didn't have any of that either. Ok, so I thought I had some dry milk but I didn't have the directions for making it. It usually turns out to weak. So I looked in my pantry and I had condensed milk. So into the condensed milk I added a tablespoon of lemon. That's what my research said to do for buttermilk. Is this what I've been making all along? Buttermilk? I thought I was just making sour milk. Anyway. I didn't take pictures of all the steps. These are the twists just before putting them into the oven.<br />

So they are a little brown, but I went ahead and glazed them. My son came in just as I was finished and he and Doug ate one pan. They must not have been too bad. These were very easy to make. The instructions call for using a pizza cutter for making the strips. I love my pizza cutter. I use it for a lot of things besides cutting pizza. <br />

While the dough was rising, we hurried and gathered out onions that were already dug and drying. The rain was suppose to come in around noon and we didn't want to ruin our crop.<br />

This was all we got but that will be enough for us. Last year we had tons. We gave away lots and still ended up tossing some.</div>

I've been in my sewing room most of the day in between chores. I've been working on a quilt for a couple of weeks, not nonstop, I still have a day job. All the blocks are done and I'm in the process of putting together the rows. Yesterday, I printed out some applique which I will use in the border. I ordered some ric-rack for the vines. I hope it turns out. </div>

I hope to have a picture of the rows completed for my blog on Monday. Check back to see it. I am just loving the secondary pattern. I sound redundant but I love it and am fascinated by it.<br />
<br />
That's all for now.<br />

I've been fascinated by this pattern. I just kept making more and more blocks to see more of the secondary pattern. I love it. I think Liz Porter's quilt was out of repro 30's fabric. This is batiks. I've been trying to only use my stash and so far with the exception of larger yardages, I have been able to make quilts for the last couple of years with it. <br />
<br />
Since this photo was taken, I only have two blocks to go and the top is done except sewing the rows together. <br />
<br />
I'm going to have to take a break from this and finish one of my<a href="http://carmisquilts.blogspot.com/2013/09/get-r-done-september.html"> Get'rDone</a> projects done. <br />

It is a quilt I saw Liz Porter demonstrate on Fon's and Porter Love of Quilting Saturday. She names it Emily's Wedding Quilt. It is made up of two blocks to create a secondary pattern. TheShoFly block and the 54-50 or Fight block. She used repro 30's fabric and I'm using my batiks. After looking at the picture of these blocks, I find I need to replace a triangle square in the second secondary pattern block. It is too light and looks like the block isn't finished. I have since taken all that batik out of the mix.<br />
<br />
I don't have a person in mind yet for this quilt. It will most likely only be a double or queen. It just depends on how long it takes and if I get bored and want to start something new.<br />

September already? My Get 'R Done August list I knew would be sketchy. I got one quilt quilted. That's all. I had a lot of company and was out of town some of it. <br />
<br />
This is Tina's first quilt. I quilted leaves or hearts on it. She will be using it as a lap quilt for her couch.<br />

September's list will be August's list of tying my son's jean quilt and quilting my Carpenter's Star quilt. <br />
