Scarves! I love them.


I love to wear scarves. I like them to be big and bright and have enough firmness in them to be able to stand up around my nose when its really cold - just put some batting or other recycled fabric inside -it will be enough to make it have body.

It had been really cold around here - and I wonder how people feel about those little flimsy things they have wrapped around their necks ... they are woven so thin they are see through.

I need a quilt around my neck.

My scarves are made just like quilts - pieced and then quilted with batting - then a binding.

Perfect!!

Happy Freezing weather!

It is Labor Day weekend! I love this holiday .... I'm having a sale on my Etsy to celebrate the cooler weather coming. George and I are making quilts and going to New Orleans parades this weekend. So much fun. I was out shopping and saw this hilarious pic! Mirror images are not who we are! I am the person I see reflected in the faces of people who love me. Although ... I did take this selfie today, too. Quilt stuff? I'm making a star quilt for my bed. It will be partially scraps and partially other fabrics that were gifted to me or bought. I think I'm going to make an effort to make it clash as much as possible! Hope you all will find some fun this weekend. It's for us. The workers.

I love free motion quilting.  I draw shapes. Whatever shapes happen to develop while Im quilting. Ive been quilting for about 11 years. Truthfully, I find that I make the same shapes over and over. Lots of curvy circles, mixed in with sharp edges. I also like to echo the shapes into each other.
