I've not been working too much on my quilts, as I have been working on my garden only to have the deer break in once again and ravish my plants! DH and I took up two posts. Literally pulled them out of the wet ground and replaced them this W/E, Then I replaced the deer fencing. hopefully reinforcing it enough to KEEP THEM OUT! My peas are up about 1 inch too.
I've almost finished the Road to Arkansas quilt for Linus. Pinned and needs binding sewn.
I really liked the Road To Arkansas pattern, and I can see me making it again. It's a great scrappy quilt, easy to do.
I bought an attachment for my Nolting 16" so that I could use rulers. I also ordered a Baptist fan ruler and used it on the Linus quilt to practice. Not too bad for a first try! Charity Quilts are so good to use up scraps, and to try new things with. Here's the ruler and the RULER MATE
Today I stopped in at Sam's club to obtain some frozen berries. They have the best price, Strawberries, cleaned & sliced! I found a present for myself A NEW IRONING BOARD! It's more stable than my old one, and is wider 18". I like that it is adjustable too. My old one used to be, but w age all things become less flexible!
Ah you have a Blog also! Mine is "ataleoftwoquilters@blogspot.com. My husband was born in Cincinnati, grew up in Indiana. Interesting. Your peas are up, and I am just preparing the place to plant them. Caroline Sullivan.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt turned out really pretty! I like that ironing board, too. I haven't seen anything like that in my local Sam's.
