Get 'er Done - August 2013

Get 'er Done for August will be skimpy this month.  I am on vacation in Montana and will be on vacation into the second week of August when my daughter and grandkids will be in Oregon with me the following week.

I am going to attempt to quilt my friend's jean quilt so it can travel back with my daughter.

Tie my son's jean and crown royal quilt.

And if time allows, I want to quilt my Carpenter's Star.

I don't have any pictues of the tops this week so here's a beautiful butterfly I photographed on my patio a while back.

Have a great day!

My Design Wall 10-29-12

The only thing on my design wall was posted on September 9.  It's still there.  But I have been working on some projects.  I am making a couple more boy scout vests for my grandson's pak.  I attended MQX West and took some classes.  Here are some of the designs I have been practicing on my longarm.

Not all of them but a few.  I'm thinking some of these will become my favorites.

I also took some time on Sunday to put in a new zipper on a favorite jacket.  Then discovered that my new (month-old) purse had a hole in it.  I had to fix it becuase that was where I put my keys.  What a disaster that would be.

We had some homemade meals this weekend.  Chicken Pot Pie and Chili with cornbread.  Something about fall that makes me want comfort food. 

Thanks for visiting and please visit Judy's blog and Homestead Revival's Barn Hop this week.

Design Wall April 30

The Carpenter's Star I started last week in two seams away from being done.  I have the top and bottom border to sew on.  Then I'll be ready for Judy's feather tutorial in June.  I think this is going to be a very nice quilt when it's finished.

Design Wall 4-23

I rushed last night to put something on my design wall for posting.  I decided to take Judy's online tutorial for quilting feathers.  This is the top she gave instructions for the class.  Join us.  The lesson beings on June 1.
