LOST MY HEART IN A MEADOWLAND

I have lost all interest in sewing right now.

It’s been 6 weeks since my husband went under Hospice Care.

I’m desperately trying not to loose my mind.

Sewingnused ti be that remedy.

But loosing my life partner,

The man I love with all my heart

Hits hard!  

But I know he’d want me finish this top one day. 

The fabrics are all bright and vivid

Some older Amy Butler, some Annamarie

Lots of flying geese, but I love all the colors. 

At last Kwilty Girls Retreat I attended in April 

I sewed some of the blocks.

Take a closer look!

Right now…I’ve lost my heart 

In a 

MEADOWLAND!

GHASTLIES NATION

I have sewn these blocks this year at 2 Kwilty Girls Retreats. 

I just dint know when I’ll ever finish top.

Maybe Halloween?

maybe not!

To sash or not to sash…

Might be a good question!

RWB PLAIDISH

Well the 4th of July has come and gone. 

I was working on the simple RWB Plaidish table topper.

Then in June my husband Phil

was diagnosed with Stage 5 Kidney Disease

and has entered Hospice Care. 

My world kinda fell to pieces.

Honestly I don’t know when I’ll finish this

Or anything, for that matter.

My heart just isn’t in it. 

I was supposed to teach this workshop today…

It will have to wait.

My beloved husband is and will always be…

My priority! 

There are 3 different blocks used for this topper.

For a Total of 9 blocks 

Here’s the backing…just sewed scraps and pieces.

And it’s ready for batting and sewing. 

This is how I feel about this 4th of July.

PAPER TRAIL

Yep…I’ve keft a oaoer trail as I made some new cards.

CHANGE IS GAWD AWFUL GOOD!

After months of collection all the supplies to make the

By Annie, A Place for Everything Bag...

Why yes, I was organized...

I became very ANNOYED at the pattern; my patience ran out!

I said ENUF, ALREADY!

I should have believed the gal who had made one

when I said...Oh I need to make that bag!

Her response was

"Go with God"

She knew exactly what was involved.

I believe it was devil worship...so I changed my mind.

the entire process was GAWD AWFUL!

I took the main pieces of the outside of the bag, already quilted.

Some of the other pieces and parts and made

TWO Piecemaker Bags...also By Annie

I love the Ghastlies prints that don't actually 

have the Ghastlies characters on them.

FRONTS

BACKS

And the quilted pockets of the Everything Bag

become this crossover bag. My design just using ideas from

bags I've made in the past.

Sew just CHANGE YOUR MIND

if you feel its the right thing to do.

Who has this much time to fiddle with all the things?

Not me!
