Sew........This Is My Blog: In the Sewing Mood
http://sewthisismyblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/in-sewing-mood.html
SewThis Is My Blog. Monday, July 20, 2015. In the Sewing Mood. I have really been looking forward to a long day of sewing since I got my sling off a few weeks ago. Today was the day! I found some great Batman fabrics in my stash. Sweet Adorable Hubby had bought them for me years ago at one of my favorite St. Louis quilt shops, The Quilted Fox. I need to make another baby quilt so I started cutting and sewing. This is what I ended up with after about a half day in my sewing room. July 20, 2015 at 9:02 PM.

Sew........This Is My Blog: December 2014

SewThis Is My Blog. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Ending the year with another "Finish" feels good. It feels even better knowing I have kept a promise to my nephew, Josh. He asked me a little over a year ago to make a wall-hanging based on the 1980's video game, The Legend of Zelda. Last month it was all basted and ready to go. I made it my "Lovely Year of Finishes" goal for December to complete the quilting and to get the binding on it. So I set to work - quilting! I set to work again - binding! Recentl...

SewThis Is My Blog. Thursday, May 7, 2015. May Goal for ALYoF. I had decided on my goal for this month and even took photos so I was ready to blog on the 5th and be done a little early.

So, May's quilty goal for A Lovely Year of Finishes. I'm linking up to the Goal Setting Party. Where I will be goal #92. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Tropical Breeze...

Sew........This Is My Blog: August 2014
http://sewthisismyblog.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
SewThis Is My Blog. Tuesday, August 19, 2014. I started a really fun project today - a wall-hanging for my nephew Josh's game room. He had seen some quilts done by Eric the Quilter. And wondered if I could do something similar. I know a lot about quilting, but I don't know much about The Legend of Zelda, so I needed a little help from Google. I found my inspiration. I sketched out some blocks and decided on a layout. Then I started sewing. I have 4 of the blocks finished - the Sword. And the Mana Potion.

SewThis Is My Blog. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. A New Quilt for Aidan and March Stash Report. This cutie pie, my 9-year-old grandson, Aidan, has informed me that it's his turn for a new quilt. In his (barely) nine years I've made him not one . Not even three . But four quilts . AND a quilted Christmas stocking. I enlarged the logo and bought the fabric. I'm planning to just make a simple raw-edge appliquéd top and free-motion quilt it. Fabric Added in March - 2 yards. Fabric Used in March - 19.48 yards.

SewThis Is My Blog. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. July Goal for "A Lovely Year of Finishes". Setting a goal at all for July is kind of scary since I will be out of town for about half of the month. I've been really motivated lately so I'm going for it! My grandson, Noah, is ready for a new quilt. I asked him what kind of quilt he wants (Never do that! Just ask what color they like! And he said he wants a lacrosse quilt. I thought, "Oh no, where will I find lacrosse fabric? Well, Quiltshops.com. I wasn't really ...

SewThis Is My Blog. Thursday, November 27, 2014. Happy Thanksgiving to all my Quilty friends. I wanted to post a picture of a fall quilt I've made, but I've never made one! This is the closest I could come to that - part of a table runner I made in 2002. The photo is a little fuzzy, and since I no longer have it, I can't take a new one. Anyway, you get the idea. Have a Blessed Day, everyone! Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Finally - QRC Quilt is Finished. I put the sleeve on it. It is finished. Whew! Then, I...

SewThis Is My Blog. Saturday, February 28, 2015. Two More Houses - WIP's Be Gone Week 9. Angie, at A Quilting Reader's Garden. Has been encouraging us to write more often about our Works in Progress, so I thought I would share with you the two most recent house blocks I have completed for my "Quilted Village.". When I shared block #9 and #10 they didn't have all the embroidery added, but they do now. This week I finished block #12, so I am making steady progress. I am linking up with WIP's Be Gone Week #9.

Sew........This Is My Blog: August Goal - Yet Another Baby Quilt!

SewThis Is My Blog. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. August Goal - Yet Another Baby Quilt! It's time to set my August goal for A Lovely Year of Finishes. This is an easy one - another great-nephew will be making his arrival very soon, and his quilt is still not finished. I made a good start on it and blogged about it in this post. Now it has the final borders added, and I'm thinking it looks pretty cute. Batman fabric and added a 5" strip of blue and yellow fabric. That is not possible! I'm linking up to Fiber...

SewThis Is My Blog. Monday, August 31, 2015. August Goal Met - Chance's Baby Quilt! It finished at 41" by 43" - large enough to be used into the toddler years. My friend Penny made a sweet (and very fitting! Label for me. She sure does nice work! The new mother, our beautiful niece Ashley, was surprised when the mail was delivered a few days ago. She put it to good use right away, and I think young Chance approves! I'm linking up with Fiber of All Sorts. For their ALYoF August Finishes Party. I measured ...
