On the display wall...

This weekend's mindless sewing took me to 3 charm-packs which I was saving for the next retreat, but since I needed to "escape" into my sewing room, and was constantly interrupted, I thought why not use them now!!! I may have to go and buy more charms now, or perhaps a jelly roll... tough times!!! lol! 8-)

So, this is what I am playing with on my design wall today...
The clippings from today... 8-)
I also roughly sewed a denim (old jeans) blanket to put in Ruby's kennel. The old towels I had in there had it! I am hoping that the jeans will wear better... she's a scratcher and chewer...

You know how we always say "I'd like to make that quilt one day". Well, do you ever make a list of them? I know I don't, but today I thought that I should. So, here I will post a list of some of the quilts that I would like to make one day, in no particular order... before I go! lol! 8-)

Bento Box
Lattice
Rail Fence
Pineapple
Quiltville's Double Delight
Storm at Sea
Celtic Knot (Think that is what it is called?)
Delectable Mountains
Snails Trail
Bargello
etc...

Here's the delicious bird I cooked for the family last night... Have any of you ever cooked the bird breast down? I think I shall try that next time as it may provide moister white meat... Got lots of chicken left over for other dishes now.. . 8-)

Today was DH last day off, and it was sooooo nice out this afternoon that we decided to go for a walk as one of our provincial parks... The closest to us is about 25 minutes away... The fur-girls had a ball, and it was nice to get some fresh air away from the city...











DH modeling the latest in doggie fashion. 8-)
And yours truely...

The fabrics you are using for the quilt are beautiful. Do you sew the cloths for the little girls?

Bugsy said...

Love the quilt. It looks interesting the way you've laid it out with the blocks near the bottom falling off.

I wonder how you would do that in a quilt?
