Love'n The Journey!

Quilting has a way of exposing, creating and changing our paths.

From places we go, people we meet and friends
 we meet along the way.

Several months ago our local guild needed to temporarily reschedule our meeting nights, which opened the opportunity to attend a Modern guild meeting.

Stumbling into a neat historical building in Ocean Grove, NJ 
my circle of quilting friendship & inspiration grew larger! 

Here is a few snip-its of several inspirational gatherings over the past few months.
The historical lighting is not the best in the photos.

I am Linked with Nini & The Sea Here for their weekly Inspiration Party  Till We Quilt Again,

Tulip In My Garden!

Love nature. 

I find it overwhelming to absorb the 

beauty, simplicity and complexity of it all!     

I seem to be drawn to quilt pieces

with the same description.

This was a workshop given by Terri Kramzer. 
You can read a previous post and link over to her web page.

Almost all of Terri's quilts were faced (not bound).

I really wanted to learn this technique so a talented 

friend

sent a link to me for 

a tutorial for non-mitered facing. 

I added corner mounts to slide a paint stick.

Also wanted to mention that Secretly Stitching is having a great giveaway you may want to check out.

What Not To Do When Sneaker Doodling!

A few weeks ago I posted about 

Sneaker Doodles Here! 

And there has been many that are going to try this. 

I thought you may like to know!

NOT TO DO THIS!

Spray them with Scotch Guard!

My thought was to Scotch Guard them so they would be sealed. 

WRONG!

(realized I should have only sprayed one to test-lesson learned!)

However what does work is

Modge Podge!

I just sponged a lite coat to seal it all in!

I chose to use two different shoe laces. 

Brooke can pick what she likes best.
