crazy'boutquilts: Yesterday's Sew Day~~

...didn't quite go as planned, but I did get a lot of cutting done! I'd almost forgotten about my sourdough starter in the refrigerator, so had to divide and start mixing on that before I could go near my machine. (Today I had to knead in more flour and it is now ready for the oven. Yum! We just love fresh sourdough bread!!! ) Then I got to my machine, but decided I would rather have all the 'logs' cut and ready to go, instead of sewing to a strip and cutting apart. My strips were only 21 inches and I decided I could make the best use of them by cutting. (Carrie has that all figured out for you in the book, but I had to test it! lol)

Logs cut..

Then I sewed on the HST part using Triangulations. Next month I will be all ready to sit and sew! Whoohoo! :-) The day ended before I got much more done. :-/

HST's~ I've got them all cut apart since this photo :-)

In other news~ the painters left about an hour ago. :-)) Double whoohoo!! :-) I am so happy to have my house painted and the doors done! I will take a photo for you this weekend of my cottage. :-) So the painting is done~ and you know what that means?! It's giveaway time! I have 4 more vintage sheet FQ's or these two wool patterns. Which would you like to win? Let me know and your name will go in that hat. :-) I will draw on Sunday.

I am so sorry for the glare! Around the pumpkin and the squirrel there are autumn leaves.

Thanks so much for your wonderful comments, following me, and the inspiration you give me! :-)

Have a happy day!

Monica said...: I wish I had been able to sew yesterday... : ( ... but it was too darn hot in my house.

If you cannot send me cooler WA weather then I would love to have the wool patterns. Because as you know I don't have very many patterns...

You buyin' that?; July 28, 2011 at 2:49 PM
