<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finished stitching Take Time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this kit at Walmart.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I need to frame it and add the shells.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It will be displayed in the bus at the beach.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I learned to coffee/tea dye Aida.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I followed <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxXA6Dc6jRU" target="_blank">this video</a> but paid close attention to time because my fabric was different from their's.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really like how it turned out and can't wait to dye more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because bright white isn't necessary for everything. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I started stitching this for the grands.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bought the pdf chart from Aliton Embroidery Etsy shop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still thinking about pulling out the gold and restitching in a darker gold.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next up is sewing news. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finally made my blocks for our quilting group Christmas party.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll show you those after the party.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut out and sewed a new knit shirt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'd show you but it's sitting on the machine waiting for a hem.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love mixing up the textures of knits.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I pulled fabrics finally for the new Quiltville Mystery Frolic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It took me a while to decide on my fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm using stash and I have almost no blues at all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have lots of purples so that's what I'm using.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought about using bright yellow since I have very few aquas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Daughter Crystal and I went mystery fabric shopping and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to buy 1 piece of aqua and use that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did add a few more purples and of course I had to add to my neutral stash.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These aquas were put back in the bin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm happy with my fabrics. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have not quilted anything since Hawaiian Sunset 1845.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've made backs and now need to have a basting party.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I pulled out some little Churn Dash blocks to use as leader/enders </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and decided to finish making up these blocks </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I can get them turned into the top I have designed in my head..</div>

Of course it's not fun until the seam ripper comes out. </div>

It seemed like everything I touched that day had to be taken out and redone. </div>

Hubby decided he wanted to hatch out some chicks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He put 22 eggs in the incubator and we now have 19 babies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a raccoon problem and lost quite a few of our hens.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The kids have fun with the names.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this group are Peanut Butter, Peanut, Peanuts 1-5, Banana Split, Turtle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Honestly I only know Peanut Butter because she is the only red chick. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Always fun on the farm.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is Hawaiian Sunset 1845.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.quiltingcompany.com/store/quilters-newsletter-february-march-2010-digital-issue" target="_blank">This pattern is still available as a down load from Quilters Newsletter.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It really was a fun quilt to make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was so afraid to quilt it so I put it away for 6 long years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How sad.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I pulled it out of the bin, I was stumped as to what to quilt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then it came time to choose thread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided a nice gray was perfect. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't wait to wash it and see if the gray hides a bit more </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but if not, I'm happy with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />While pin basting, I decided it was so busy it only needs a meander.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was shocked that it only took 1 day to get it quilted. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I sure do love my Sweet Sixteen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is now trimmed and ready for binding which was in strips in the binding box. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That will happen today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When Ernie asked who it was for I told him I had no clue and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that I really wanted to keep it for myself.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Daughter Crystal and I attended our retreat last weekend.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to focus on this UFO designed by Judy L and the September project for her challenge. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did a quick search of her page and <a href="https://www.patchworktimes.com/?s=Tell+It+To+The+Stars" target="_blank">found it here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had the center complete and the framing pieced border was on and border 3 was pieced.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut fabric for all the other borders and made this my first project.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I took all the extra fabric thinking I could piece the back.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Wrong, so I pulled out a new project that I can't share yet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I came home at night, I went into the backing stash </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and found a 6 yard piece of flannel. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That wasn't enough so I grabbed all my flannel that went with my flannel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That was my project for because I wanted to pass it to my long arm quilter friend Jane.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I take a picture of this old snag at each retreat. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a blast hanging out with my daughter and my friends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love these gals!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today my dear sweat friend Pam (Hey Pam!) read me a text from a high school friend Ruth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here's a message for you Ruth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Heeeyyyy. I am so jealous of your planned trip. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thanks for reading my blog.<br />One of these days we have to get together! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since I haven't cross stitched in 35+ years, why not start with a big project?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All the floss came on this card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What a mess. </div>
<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a bunch of plastic bobbins so I sat in front of the computer watching floss tube videos</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and wound the floss onto them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While I watched one video, she showed her floss on some card stock thingies she made.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then showed how to pull one thread at a time with her needle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'll have to go way back through my history to find that video.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sorry, I can't remember who it was.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The light bulb went off in my head,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have card stock and these punches.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got to work and punched out a bunch of rectangles </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and put the grands to work punching the circles. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'll use these on my next project.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I decided to work on one quarter at a time but</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
had a full needle of black floss so I just kept stitching on the machine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then started on the thread cabinet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have learned I'd rather stitch without a hoop.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is where I left off a couple nights ago.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I now have most of the spools back stitched.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It sure makes a difference when they are outlined.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a few more kits but I've not started another project yet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm trying to stay focused on this one because I love it so much.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One other thing I learned all on my own,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with the not the best quality floss in this kit,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
if I run my threads over beeswax, they stitch so much better.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let's hope the chasing of squirrels has calmed down now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't have time for anything else.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dinner? Go ahead and make us whatever you want.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The road to my crazy started with Sweet Adorable Clella.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's not true, I've been a bit of a crazy for a very long time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She wanted to learn embroidery. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found a cute little heart sampler for her and fixed her up a kit.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ4aj7PuvAj13q2DIJDhQ52Lwej0NjwECEBRQQCiGBbuxXB4hrVKBjTHkQ3uFyfx3JuB_3q_j8QzMX4C8MxOjOByqnDxujEXlU8miG5YRe9uyPb_ab5jwDaXEtavqH5gL5q27L/s1600/20190823_132243.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ4aj7PuvAj13q2DIJDhQ52Lwej0NjwECEBRQQCiGBbuxXB4hrVKBjTHkQ3uFyfx3JuB_3q_j8QzMX4C8MxOjOByqnDxujEXlU8miG5YRe9uyPb_ab5jwDaXEtavqH5gL5q27L/s320/20190823_132243.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I found this on Facebook Marketplace and started researching on you tube.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The first video I watched was from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChlaj7Rkm1Yi0NnsWiW2cEA/videos" target="_blank">Quilt Roadies</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I felt like I had found a long lost sister. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've watched every single video. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which led to some wool applique and a return to counted cross stitch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWSsEhvcGELLTtZOn6_D-RfYpNDfhcRIVRqklXjUAytDdzvFvRk-l542j_miiCltHdHPXz-910BigUD-EtfvtCvDjQRpF56aMm8mGUNd84eQOnpv4WTrZQj9tllUOZVfae5x8r/s1600/20190908_111747.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWSsEhvcGELLTtZOn6_D-RfYpNDfhcRIVRqklXjUAytDdzvFvRk-l542j_miiCltHdHPXz-910BigUD-EtfvtCvDjQRpF56aMm8mGUNd84eQOnpv4WTrZQj9tllUOZVfae5x8r/s320/20190908_111747.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I went shopping. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I bought this wool kit. I have it cut and ready to start.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKBsTyuUXQr8CTZi87mu53_bXZt0R5n8bs6E53CJn8JxZeiv4wtxYE4DdX10JqO3_OoSXhhyphenhyphenIuvEHWaTNsk0UQQyEKeimWGWgcNRAVSn1bd_5Pre8YfLol7QelFwLWZAJJy6dx/s1600/20190821_140959.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="900" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKBsTyuUXQr8CTZi87mu53_bXZt0R5n8bs6E53CJn8JxZeiv4wtxYE4DdX10JqO3_OoSXhhyphenhyphenIuvEHWaTNsk0UQQyEKeimWGWgcNRAVSn1bd_5Pre8YfLol7QelFwLWZAJJy6dx/s320/20190821_140959.jpg" width="180" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought I should start with something small so I ordered this cut kit for my first attempt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'll write up another blog post about it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

After watching a few of the Stitch Roadies on You Tube,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to return to cross stitch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's only been 35 or so years.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I partly blame my friend Dottie for the cross stitch--she told me about floss tube on you tube. 😉</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'll write up about this project in another post too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So the squirrels are working overtime. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've acquired a few more kits. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've decided not to buy any more kits for a while.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Until I see one I can't resist.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I needed to cut 4 borders and the binding.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are all cut and ready to sew on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The binding is cut and ready to make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The left over fabrics will be for the back.</div>

Neil Diamond was a perfect companion for my basting party.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hubs was in the recliner, reading. </div>

I told him there would be singing. He rolled his eyes. 😀</div>

Why Perfectly Imperfect?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I basted the quilt, I had the back the inside down instead of up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I noticed it when I had it about 3/4 quilted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am not a perfectionist.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just kept on quilting. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
No big deal, it's going on my bed.</div>

I'm working on my 2019 UFO Challenge list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm behind, very behind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now I am going to work on catching up,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 months at a time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It might be the excitement of my new to me Sweet Sixteen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Who cares why,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm just excited to be quilting again. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So the March UFO is quilted and Daisy approved. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll head in now and trim it and sew on the binding.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's always good when the binding is premade so the mojo keeps flowing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have bobbins wound for April's UFO that is all basted and ready to go.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Easy Street is up next. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Bur first I have to change the needle in the Sweet Sixteen.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cross your fingers for me. </div>

<a href="https://handiquilter.com/sweet-sixteen/" target="_blank">Handi Quilter Sweet Sixteen</a> machine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've wanted one for a few years and lately started looking seriously.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I looked at new, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I looked for used.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are not many used machines on the market.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I looked in 3 states and recently found one 3 hours from me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday we took a road trip to north western Washington to test drive one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Who am I kidding, I knew I was bringing it home with me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is now set up in the living room.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I played with her for quite a while last night.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I watched videos and played some more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm confident in my free motion and I'm ready to start quilting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I had to put off quilting to get a couple of quilts basted. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so behind on my UFO Challenge list that I pulled the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
March and April UFOs off the pile and basted them.</div>

I don't like to mend but I do it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And when I do I remember time spent with my Mother in Law as she taught me</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"the proper way to mend".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She told me as a young couple, we didn't need to spend our hard earned money on new clothes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for her son to go to work in and rip up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So for our 46+ years of marriage, I've mended work clothes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It's been a minute since I've posted anything.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think about it but that's as far as I get.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm hoping my blog break is over for a while.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll catch up in another post.</div>

I worked on this Stars and Stripes Wall Hanging kit at retreat last month.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I was getting ready to baste it, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I notice that my stripes looked weird.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had given away the instructions so </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
back to Connecting Threads website I went in search of the kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was still there so I took a picture of it and got out my seam ripper.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(It's no longer on the website.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was all fixed good as new and I got it and another wall hanging basted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In 2 days of little bits of quilting time,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I now have finish #11 of <a href="http://grammasquiltingroom.blogspot.com/2019/01/20-finishes-before-2020.html" target="_blank">20 Finishes Before 2020</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now to figure out where to hang it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm thinking in the trailer or the bus or the house.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
LOL </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next up is a cute basket wall hanging </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then a special new pink and purple quilt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then I plan to get caught up on my 2019 UFO Challenge. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm only 4 behind. UGH!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is a plan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The tops are all out, the backings are made or bought,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thread and designs are chosen and noted</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a new roll of batting at the ready.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Garden Party is finished and Daisy tested and approved.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She thinks if I lay a quilt on the floor for a picture, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
she needs to be right there!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you enjoyed that Daisy Doodles,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it's the last time you get to lay on this quilt.</div>

I quilted a simple meander.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After removing the <a href="http://grammasquiltingroom.blogspot.com/2019/04/design-wall-monday-on-tuesday.html" target="_blank">wavy outer borders</a>, this top sat there taunting me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I finally couldn't take it any more so I got to work on putting them back on the right way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
No more just winging it for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I knew better at the time but decided to risk it,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My Big Mistake!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am thrilled with this quilt! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't think I did too bad on this one,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
only 2 years marinating before finishing. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are most excited by this one.</div>

The lady at Walmart told us about this fertilizer that she uses on her plants.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Too bad we can't buy it there but the local Ace had it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I need another bottle. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The wicking tubs need fertilizer added whenever water is added. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I learned about wicking tubs from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSDYs9sd2_BlLuWSiEr7TJQ/featured" target="_blank">Gardening with Leon</a>.</div>

I've been putting blocks together!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Virginia Bound and Chunky Churndash leader/ender blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(VB is in<a href="https://quiltville.com/shop.html#!/Scraps-&-Shirttails-List-$25-95-SALE-$19-99/p/50087834/category=13038050" target="_blank"> Scraps and Shirttails</a> and CC is a free pattern on the <a href="http://quiltville.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Quiltville blog</a>.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope the next time (after the reveal at retreat) you see VB,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it will be a completed quilt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's my plan right now. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In my last blog post I told you about getting sidetracked with these blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had planned to take these to retreat and work on them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXn-UKUSGpdUVBQ-b2u3ej7HXmR1OHXOuyUrCReQur6Q5CqdbUzJLIXkBNoNhPNWYDUKVxgWdNyQi5f3us2lP7kfuqzkM-4WgqEHhew6ugXIMNExEauQMyOSssqwT8kF3icoFR/s1600/20190503_104628.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXn-UKUSGpdUVBQ-b2u3ej7HXmR1OHXOuyUrCReQur6Q5CqdbUzJLIXkBNoNhPNWYDUKVxgWdNyQi5f3us2lP7kfuqzkM-4WgqEHhew6ugXIMNExEauQMyOSssqwT8kF3icoFR/s320/20190503_104628.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But my plans changed as I sewed and trimmed just a few more and a few more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Pretty soon there were no more blocks to take to retreat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Survivor was on so I grabbed the stack of blocks and an empty trash bag</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and plopped myself down on the couch to watch TV and depaper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On Saturday I got out the Go! Cutter and took care of a pile of scraps.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When that was finished, I decided to go ahead and get the blocks into</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4s so I could sew my big blocks at retreat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Bahahahaha,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have several of them already sewn together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm now hoping to reveal the finished quilt at retreat </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
since I how have a new roll of batting and renewed energy.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We spent a couple weekends at the beach.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The beach always refreshes my soul.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I took along some fabric strips with a plan to cut and kit up some blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think there are 40 little blocks ready to go.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These will to taken to retreat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe. 😉</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I'm headed over to check on what everyone else is working on at</div>

Look, I've been sewing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Saturday I was cleaning my sewing room and it was time to take a break.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a <b>giant </b>bag of scraps that were gifted to me by my friend BJ.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to use my break time by sorting and cutting some of these scraps.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was also getting things together for retreat next month..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Right there, staring me in the face, was my box with Virginia Bound by Bonnie Hunter.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's one of my favorites from her <a href="https://quiltville.com/shop.html#!/Scraps-&-Shirttails-List-$25-95-SALE-$19-99/p/50087834/category=13038050" target="_blank">Scraps and Shirttails</a> book.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started it at the fall retreat with plans to work on it again in the spring</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I pulled it out to put on the retreat pile.</div>
<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe I'll just sew neutrals to a few blocks.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There were 2 that the centers were already trimmed, ready for neutrals.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's when the squirrel came out. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oh heck, may as well get the centers to the others trimmed up and ready to work on at retreat.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm not sure how many a few are but this is only 2 of a pretty good pile</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that I already had the centers done.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are now all completed, trimmed and depapered. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ernie already had plans for the day so I decided to sew more blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And more and more and more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just like Lay's potato chips,</div>

I started this audiobook Saturday afternoon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm pretty far into it and it is so good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'd never read anything from <a href="https://kristinhannah.com/" target="_blank">Kristin Hannah</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm really happy with whoever shared this book. </div>

I headed right over to my library and placed holds on all of her audiobooks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Her books are several weeks out but I'm sure they will be worth the wait.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added several ebooks to my wish list for when I'm finished with the series I'm reading.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I LOVE MY LIBRARY!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The ability to down load books to my Kindle and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
other devices is priceless to me. </div>

My mojo has gone missing. I have not sewn for 3 weeks. The exception is joining pieces of landscape cloth to make them big enough for my tub garden. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Garden Party has been basted since January but it sits on the shelf taunting me. The borders were wavy and I was not pleased with the way backing was , too many puckers! So last night, I told it to hush as I grabbed it off the shelf and took it in front of the tv. Seam ripper and reverse tweezers at the ready, I got busy. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The original plan was to just unpin the borders and remove them, remeasure and do it right. No more just laying the fabric on and sewing borders. I knew while doing it I might regret it and I do. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When the borders were off and I started to fold the quilt back up, I saw the puckers on the backing again. Right then I decided to unpin it all, and fix it the right way! Too much time went in to this quilt to half-ass finish it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now I am ready to do a quick gift project and then get busy again on my UFOs. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
and keep them out in the carport.</div>

If it's going to get real cold at night, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we'll move them into the shop for the night.</div>

April 6th, I'm starting squash seeds.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I ordered these from <a href="https://migardener.com/" target="_blank">Migardner</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Plus I saved seeds from the blue pumpkins from my friend that I'm starting too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are going to try these in big containers full of water.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I might put some in the ground just because.</div>

To be continued......</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
