It is the month of the all Iowa Quilt Shop Hop; and today we (Quilter 65) drove 430 miles adn stopped at seven shops. And we are just half done in our area. Wow. What a great day it was. Yes, I found the right blues for the Blue Rose quilt, I found my 8 blues for the log cabin quilt. I am tired, so good night to everyone.

That's great to hear, Bev! I feel so much better already, too. They told me you can only get these 3 times. Wonder why?

Show and tell time: [ATTACH=CONFIG]574299[/ATTACH]Labyrinth Walk...black, Charcoal Grey and light Gray...$7. a yd.; [ATTACH=CONFIG]574300[/ATTACH]Two pieces that matched the Blue Roses. I will continue the white and blue around the other 68 roses. Square in a square in a square.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]574303[/ATTACH]Log cabin choices...[ATTACH=CONFIG]574301[/ATTACH]I hope I posted the right one last...not sure with one eye what posted here. dark center that works its way out to light so I can sew light side of blocks together and have a lighter background....I think. |
I think first and last is the same; the middle one is my choice. Tried to delete last but could not. Sorry the first photo is fuzzy, guess I shook my hands as the camera clicked on it.

Well Nina...your eye for color is spot on...very nice selection of fabrics!
|
Thanks OK, the colors in the first kit did not appeal to me. Ladies at It's a Stitch in Jefferson made some wonderful suggestions. Then I found one light blue in my stash and substituted it. See how it works out tomorrow when I start making the blocks. Should go fast, I think...I hope. So many others to finish!
I did notice the Iowa Dot is hard to work and detours everywhere. Quilter 65 navigated the roads very well around detours. |
That will be fun for you to use that purse!
Those blue fabrics look so royal. Lovely! I'm glad shots helped you girls. I just don't like to go to the doctor. I cannot imagine having such expensive health insurance. I could never afford that. I wouldn't have enough left from my paycheck to make ends meet. I'm pluggin' away at this and that. Nothing far enough along to be worth taking a picture... |
Lovely 'haul', Sue! Your blues are so pretty. Looks like you will have a lot of fun right away with your purchases.
I agree about that health insurance! I'd have to cancel it too. Who can afford that? Here there is a clinic owned by the dr. and you pay a subscription fee monthly, like $50, and you can go all you need to. Meds are sold there too and are cheap. It seems to be the wave of the future: Pay as you go medical care, and then insurance maybe only for the catastrophic stuff. Givio, I don't like going to the doctor, either. I have been in pain with my back for years, procrastinating. Wish I went in sooner! |

Just got my package from Thousands of Bolts... I ordered some beautiful Christmas fabrics, all $4.95 a yard! Thought you'd get a kick out of seeing my purchases.

Well SBG - what are you going to make with all this beautiful fabric. I have a lot of Christmas fabric that was given to me by my aunt, and I don't know what to do with it. I have a dresden plate tree skirt I made years ago!
