Foot pedal riser

I tried to share this before, but the mobile blogger app didn't work.  Trying again!

I built this quick riser for my Pfaff foot pedal.  It is amazing the difference in made!  It is so much more comfortable to use this way.  I am going to make a better, more attractive one now that I know it works!

Tiles quilt along progress

Well, I have steadily been working on my 100 patch blocks - and have them all finished!  Yay!  


Now, onto my 25 patch blocks!  That will take half the time even though there is twice as many!

Lattice and Chains - Moda Bake Shop quilt

Well, I can finally share my latest Moda Bake Shop project!  Introducing ''Lattice and Chains''










I chose mainly the red/white/blue prints from the line ''Varsity'' - but there is plenty of gray and even a bit of black in there too (with hints of green and yellow).  It reads mainly red/white/blue though, which I love!

I cannot keep them all - as much as I'd like to - so this one is available for sale in my Etsy Shop.

Tiles - assembly

Well, the 4th part to the quilt along is posted on Bear Creek Quilting blog.  I am SO far behind on my own quilt along, it isn't even funny!  How embarassing is that?!  No fears if you are behind, we can keep this going throughout the summer, and maybe longer - the flickr page to share will still be there :)  I have NOTHING to share since I just finished another quilt project and then went on a camping vacation for my 24th wedding anniversary!  Here is my anniversary present from hubby:



I need to get a hanger for this for the porch today so I can hang it well enough out of the direct sun.  It is HEAVY (I am guessing close to 50 pounds!), so it will have to be more than a nail to hang it on!  I have never had a red begonia - isn't it gorgeous?!  Love love love.  Now if I can keep it alive (I have a brown thumb!)
