Welcome to Gramma's Quilting Room.

Design Wall Monday

 Not much sewing has been happening around here.  I did get this mini quilted and the binding put on.  Then I took the binding off.  My seam allowance was very, very wrong!  I decided to wait until the big machine was set back up again and promptly put the featherweight in it's case.

I need to focus on getting my sewing room back together.  I am so good at procrastinating.  If I could turn that into a full time job, I'd be rich!  I am really glad the recycle guy doesn't have to physically pick the bin up to empty is. Yesterday I purged papers and magazines.  It was painful but I did it.  I try to keep up with them but again, the procrastination set in.  It was amazing how few things I took out of the magazines.  I even pulled somethings out of my notebooks to make room for the new pages.


Bee report:  Yesterday was day 9.  It was time to fill the feeders and check to see if Her Royal Highness, the Queen Bee was laying eggs.  It appears she was doing her job but I cannot verify that as I stayed way back and used the zoom on the camera.  


It looks like another fabulous day to be touring around Blogland.  Start by visiting Judy L, so many great looking links already.

Yes, there are a lot of pretty blog posts linked up already this morning. I love the thumbnails that just draw me in...The Purple got me to come see yours! I don't just procrastinate I totally just don't do it- purge, I mean. I'm getting closer and closer to that "hoarder stage". LOL

Your mini is really lovely. All those purples! I'm glad you decided to fix the binding. I'm sure you'll be happier that you took the time. Hope there's honey in your future. Sandi

I didn't notice the quilt was a mini until you mentioned it - I hadn't noticed the sewing machine in the background yet. Holy Moly - it is a MINI! It is beautiful!

That little quilt is cute. Sometimes bindings can get mean.... starting over another is always a good idea.
Bees, did you say..... OMG, I would have been in the house, in a closet... LOL
