WHISKEY GIRL

I’ve always been a Whiskey Girl!
Fun times cause you know the saying…
Whiskey makes me Friskey!


WELL THOSE WERE THE DAYS!
Today I’m sharing some cards I recently made with
Whiskey Business Stamos! 

Whatever is stamped on the envelope 
is the inside greeting!























Cheers

MORE WONKINESS!

Time to work on some more WONKY blocks.
A speaker presentation doesn't just happen.
It takes work to make it fun and engaging.


Found this on-line and what a great reference guide.


9 Patch



Log Cabin


Sawtooth Stars


And the blocks continue to grow!



I am making small projects using WONKY blocks
to show peeps how fun they can be when incorporated into
a small project.  No everything has to be a quilt.

Stay tuned for March and when the first
Let's Get Wonky Presentation happens!

If your guild is interested in any of my presentations
or workshops, please see the tab here on my blog.

LET'S GET WONKY!

I am working on a new Speaker Presentation for quilt guilds.
Let's Get Wonky!

Most of my presentations are with traditional audiences.
Sew my goal is to encourage them to 
'step outside the sewing box'
and try something new.

Something liberated, askew, FUN!
Let's break the quilting rules!


LET'S GET WONKY!


HST


Couthouse Square


Log Cabin


And some extras that I'll work into small projects.


I have some time to pull this all together
for the first presentation will be in March, 2025.

I CAN MAKE THAT!


I've been messing around with some upcycled shirts.
Why? Because I saw them at a craft market selling for $45!
and yes, I can make that!

 I found a favorite Ohio State t-shirt that was a little snug.



Just cut the sleeves off the t-shirt 
an inch or two from the sleeve seam.


Easy Peasey


And you have this!
Leave the top of the shirt seams, just as they are.


Find a coordinating flannel shirt
and cut the sleeves off that about 3" from sleeve seams.


Sew the two together and voila!


This t-shirt has been worn to smithereens.
But I wasn't ready to let it go!


And the back of your recycled shirts will look like this!


What a fun upcycle and I plan to do a few more.

And this is how it looks in action.
