A Few New Things

-

I still haven't exactly figured out how to get my pictures from my phone to my blog. The "Cloud" has taken over. So back to my regular camera. At least it goes where I know how to work with it. Funny, I think I have  mastered a few things and they go all different. Kind of like quilting. It's not so much about getting it all perfect, but working with what you have and making the best of it. Always a learning curve.

I have been enjoying working in my Studio. I've had several classes now and am including a few pictures. It is so relaxing to be here with friends. I invite you to come and join us sometime.

Here are a few shots of us having fun.





We are making snowmen faces on a table mat. Wool, of course.




We are so hard at work. 


This is another day with another project. We all had our own to work on.



Always a few Sue Spargo projects.

I'm working on the Block of the Month for this year. Just finished my 6th bird.
And here they are. I love the colors and all the embellishment. I am anxiously awaiting the next three.






OOOPPPSSS! he is taking flight!


And  number six. They are so much fun to do.


My awesome Sea Grass ready for the Clark County Quilt Show next week. Thursday through 
Saturday in Vancouver. Hope you are planning to come.


Wool packets ready to go. It has been fun getting things together to take. 

The Quilt Show is the next event.After that, I will teach the Firefly Sewing Envelope at Pioneer Quilts on Wed. April 17th from 10:30-4:30. It is a wonderful project. Brand new pattern from Sue Spargo.

On Sunday April 21 here at my QB Studio, we will work on the Autumn Woods project out of Primitive Quilts and Projects. 11-3, $10.00 Let me know if you would like to come or for more information. Light lunch provided.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Sunday April 28 is Open Studio at my QB Studio. Noon to 4. Work on anything you like. $5.00

Spring really felt good today. Blossoms abound everywhere. Season after season, there is always something to admire. Creation is awesome. 

Easter Sunday this year will be spent at our beloved Solid Rock church and then lunch at Ginny  and Darren's  Always good food to look forward to. They are the best hosts. Relaxed and always looking for ways to serve. 

Wishing you happy days of sewing and enjoying friends and family.

Camping in the Rain

 Hello Everyone,  We went camping at Barview Jetty a little while ago and it rained almost all the time we were there! On the way it was necessary to stop here at our favorite fish shop! Best shrimp, sauce, and clam chowder that we have found.  Excellent. We went there on the way to camp and on the way home. Even thought it rained so much, the clouds were spectacular. The sand had some cool patterns We had friends that camped next to us and we ate really well.  Some reading and stitching were also part of our days. A couple weeks ago we went to McIver park to camp. Again it rained almost the whole time we were there. Same friends kept us entertained and we continued with our eating really well. This is a reflection in the lake of the sun trying to come out. Mamma ducks and babies were enjoying the break in the rain. We have found out that our beloved Oscar has Prostate cancer and Cushings disease. It's a sad blow as we lost both our Silkies last year. We don't know how long we

Coming out of hibernation

 I decided it was time to bring my blog back to life. I thought about it for some time and decided it would be so nice to connect with friends again even if it's just with words. I have mostly enjoyed being at home and catching up with reading and sewing. My Etsy shop is doing well and I would like to share some of the things that are currently available.                                        I bought this tin in The Netherlands when I was recently there visiting my daughter and her family. They took me to a very cool old antique shop and they have Lots of tins. The shop had so many things that I would have liked to take home. But Not possible. This is another one! It's been fun finding things to put in the sewing boxes. They are listed in my Etsy shop thequiltingbshop.Etsy.com There are lots of size 12 Valdani Thread available too. A few of the ones that I just listed I brought home some beautiful French floss that is paired up with some wool squares and some that are listed
