Thimble Pleasures Quilt Guild Modern Challenge

Wednesday, July 20, 2016 - 4:45pm

Sue, Donna, and Linda Gosselin, a SPD Certified Instructor, belong to Thimble Pleasures Quilt Guild and we recently revealed our 2016 Challenges. The theme for challenge was "modern".  To participate, we purchased a bag that contained two fat quarters and two crayons.  We had to use both the fabrics in the bag but could add four additional fabrics as long as they matched the colors of the crayons.  The fat quarters were a Kona white and a gray fabric with some circles and helped unify the finished pieces.

One Day to Sewing Room I Can Sew In!

Friday, January 22, 2016 - 5:25pm

Friday arrives and it’s SHOPPING DAY!  Armed with my lists, my good intentions and my credit cards, I am off to the shops to find all the bins, baskets, and labels I need to make my sewing room livable again.  Then off to the fun stuff, the fabric store where I stock up on my list of fabrics and notions.  I try not to stray too far from the list.  The eye candy on the shelves can stay on those shelves unless it is going to help me finish my PHDs, my Projects that are Half Done!

Deadlines are made to be broken!

Tuesday, January 5, 2016 - 5:29pm

I have the worst “Deadline to Finish” ratio in the entire quilting world.  I am still working on the Hearts and More book, and it has been at least 18 months in the making.  While writing the book, I have neglected my blog so today, I’m going to walk you though MY creative writing process. Emphasis on “creative”, and not so much on “writing”!
