Friend's On Friday-Sonja




 Sonja made this batik beauty for her son & future daughter in-law. 

 Sonja choose a King Tut variegated thread. 

And a modern pantograph for the quilting.


This is one of those quilts that photos don't show well.
Great job Sonja!

Save The Gingham!


In September I am participating in a blog hop. A portion of that post is for us to use gingham fabric from Riley Blake in some way.
Get this--they were considering discontinuing gingham fabric!

 REALLY!

I will admit that the last time I used gingham was in a apron, 
in 7th grade in Home-Eco class. 
But you can't take it away!

So I am supporting the cause, here is what I am working on.

There will be over 50 blogs posting to show what they have created in September.












And not to bore you with details, I needed to added this little 
contraption fashion statement to my leg for the next two weeks. If I told you that I was laying around and getting allot of hand work done, that would be a lie! 
But what I will say-- is exercising can be dangerous to your health!

She's A Brick House



A few weeks back our guild held a challenge.










We were to make anything that consisted with the majority of rectangles in it and it was quilted.
  



My thought was-- rectangle boxy pouch with rectangle pieces of fabric.



A friend referred to it as a "Brick House"



Needless to say
"Shes A Brick House" pops in my head every time I see it!

Here's The Plan!

Use these templates.....



To cut these fabrics......





To make this quilt.......

I've had these templates for way too long and 
thought it would work well on the gingham. 
I Hope!

This is my "Work In Progress"
