On My Design Wall…7.20.2015

I cut my star strips into 3.5 inch squares and attempted to mix them up.

WIP Wednesday 7.8.2015

I'm working on putting the borders on the second pink strata.

No plan for this flimsy but I can tell you that the floral has been aging since 2005/2006. I remember buying it when I lived in Texas!

Sometimes it feels good to sew just because...

On The Design Wall

It's been awhile since I had anything on the design wall as I have been working on the Little Dresses for the past little bit.  :)

Here's what I did…I *frogged* the stripped pink portion and made two stratas. This is the first one. I needed to be creative with the borders to get it to size. Right now it's approximately 60 x 72 before quilting.  I'm thinking about donating this to my church's woman's retreat in the spring of 2016.  So I'm setting it aside and will wait to quilt/finish this one.


I'm not totally lovin' it…but maybe it will grow on me?!

ALYoF…July 2015 Goal Party

My ALYoF July Goal is to piece this quilt to a flimsy.

It's been hanging around the sewing room for quite awhile and it's time to get this winter flimsy moving along.


Housekeeping: I'm #44 on the July 2015 Goal Setting Party.

Happy Birthday, USA!

The Oconomowoc Quilt Guild is playing strip poker at the July meeting. 

Our theme is Red White and Blue…and I'm ready!

Enjoy your day and BE SAFE!

Whoop! Whoop! 7.3.2015

My Friday finish is more Little Dresses!

Nine more from the pillowcases that I received earlier in the week.











I'll be turning this set in on Sunday July 5, 2015 and that should wrap up my Little Dress making… but never say never so I just might be making more!

Onto Something New…Maybe…

I started another quilt…jelly roll race style but it is NOT what I pictured in my mind!

Will need to think this one over for a bit.




We had our last official sew day for the Little Dresses.

Are you ready?

The count is at 421!

Whoop! Whoop!

We are expecting a few more to come in but not exactly sure of the number.

While I was there…I picked up a few pillowcases.

More Little Dresses to be made!
