Winter White

Figgy Pudding.eight 1/2 yd. cuts purchased from Quilt Taffy, The Sproutz Store, and Sew Inspired.extra fabric to play with.maybe another against the red background.72 flying geese. that's alot. my ruler made things easier. although i used yardage in lieu of charms. if you buy yardage for the background. you can make 4 flying geese with 1 charm. by using a 6" background square with a 4-1/2" geese square. but if you look closely you will find i used 2 4-1/2" squares to make what i am calling a 3-1/2" faux-facing-geese.

Starscape

2 more. 12 stars done. 68 more to go.with 8 different fabrics you could really make 8 different stars.
while 8 different stars made me crazy.
seeing 4 different ones with a twin made me calm.

merry

free BOM from Gail Pan Designs.
making one block a week with Melanie, Simone, and Lynn.

Starscape

2 more. 10 stars done. 70 more to go.an annoying light but needed to properly show off fabric.

Starscape

my new set of stars. this time around. points prepped. ready to go.am i sick of this pattern yet. absolutely. but i am committed. just look at Edyta holding her finished quilt.

au-then-tic

finished new book. started boy color knitting.and admiring my new jelly roll.if you mix Allspice Tapestry and au-then-tic you might just have fabric color perfection. well for me. today's palette posted here made me stop and stare. that's me. and the winners of the jelly roll contest were announced here. love the one called Beach Huts. o.k. no more JR talk.

Bake then Sew then Eat

there was no whipped cream in her refrigerator.but while i waited for my sister to come home i made this recipe.we did not get much done.after discovering the iron was broken. measuring the bed. and counting coins. revealed we need to go shopping. so the making of the quilt goes on.

1941 Nine-Patch

not a very exciting block. except for the flying geese. but i like it.here are my geese rulers. the top two are a set of mini's. the bottom one you might have already used. mini on left made this block. mini on right i need next month to make Army Star.slowly advancing on my Hope of Hartford blocks. 12 done. and most of the border blocks.have you signed up for A Year of Schnibbles? the first quilt is Winter White and has flying geese. i won't get my pattern for a few days. but i'm ready with my rulers.

My First Jelly Roll

well. that's not the whole truth. long ago my sister and i used to make those jam jelly rolls. they were so delicious. and a bit messy. and i won't bake cookies without my insulated jelly roll pan. but my very first fabric jelly roll is on its way to me as we speak. that's right. i won the flower table runner contest. yippee. take a peek here to see the other runners that were made.

hey sis. let's not sew on Friday. i feel like making a sweet jelly roll. just kidding. we really have to sew. but if you find the recipe and put all the ingredients on the counter. pretty please. i promise to get it in the oven before you get back from your appointment.

if she takes the bait maybe i'll show you what we're working on...
