Happy Thanksgiving! and a WIP
Happy Thanksgiving Day to all! I am so thankful for all the blessing in my life: family, friends, pets, a home and a job. I am also thankful to have finally found my medium of expression. While I will not sew much today (heading over the river and through the woods to Mom's for dinner), I hope all of you celebrate a blessed and peaceful Thanksgiving.And now a confession: I am up to 2 WIPs (works in progress). Once again, I ran out of thread while quilting, so I can not finish 1 until my order arrives. I normally have 2 WIPs: 1 I am quilting and 1 I am piecing, but since I am out of thread I now have 1 being quilted, 1 waiting to baste and quilt and 1 being pie

sK8 Finished!
This quilt is for my 13 year old nephew. He loves riding (?) his skateboard. I wanted to make a quilt for him, but 13 is a tough age to please. I found this cool skateboarding fabric at eQuilter (ON SALE!) Perfect! Then I gathered complementary patterns along with a hand dye. And put it together. It is a simple piecing, 10" squared sewn together, then free-motioned. I f-m'ed in a zig/zag pattern. I wanted it to be rough and appropriate for him. I ran out of the thread Thursday night and bought me yesterday so now it is finished!

Eye Candy - November 21 edition
I have been quilting, BUT, I ran out of thread in the correct color! So I am filling in today's post with some eye candy, then I will drive 30 minutes to the closest LQS that carries YLI thread, buy more and then come back home to quilt the rest of my nephews quilt. I ran out with just a 10" by 20" section left to go. Bummer. I had purchased a different thread due to the location of the store. But I am hugely disappointed in that brand and will not buy it anymore. Its YLI, Sulky or Mettler to quilt for me! I also like Gutterman for piecing.

Watauga County Barn Quilt
On my way to my son's cabin, I spied this lovely Barn Quilt square in Watauga County, 5 miles south of Boone, NC, just off US Highway 421:He is in a good neighborhood!
