look up

I would look up and laugh, and love, and lift.

1″ blocks, machine pieced and hand quilted, can’t remember what they’re called, another reform letter, and a snippet of lace. The words are taken from a song…I think.

One of this weeks goals it to try and get a pdf file put on my website for you to download a little holiday pattern. Need to do the project first, that’s easy, it’s the file for download part that I haven’t done before. Wish me luck. I’ll post a quick note when its up for you to try out and, hopefully, let me know that it works perfectly.

Happy Monday!

Friday Find #44

I found this in my email inbox.

I’m attaching a picture of my first creation because I read somewhere that you’d like to see what’s created . . . and I was thrilled with how my very first piece turned out!  The frame size is eight square inches, and lily of the valley is my favorite flower.  I was surprised at how the finished piece was completely different than what I originally planned.  I’m looking forward to creating my next piece!!!  THANK YOU for the inspiration and the incredible ideas.  Kimberly B.

Thank you Kimberly for letting me post this.

I like the cluster of buttons and embroidery.

And something I’ve been meaning to mention, have you noticed the avatars (little symbol by your name) in the comments that wordpress puts in if you don’t have your own? They remind me of quilt blocks…some real complicated designs. Each time you comment your avatar is the same, it remembers you.

Anyhow, have a nice weekend.

Calm

O still small voice of calm! Amen  Blocks are 1.5″

On today’s menu: finish listening to an audio book while sewing and then house cleaning of some sort. Hope your Monday is a nice one.
