Spring Quilters Retreat...
I just finished up a week at
Spring Quilters Retreat....2019
Here are a few of the things
I stitched on:
My Inspiration...
I love those cool 1960's shapes
I turned those shapes into...
Wonky Felt Coasters
The bottom layers is....3mm Felt
The top 2 layers...1 mm Felt
These are so much FUN to scribble stitch
with free motion and black thread !
Wonky Coasters
I will be creating more of these!
I also worked on another Jelly Roll Rug:
Jelly Roll Rug.....DONE !
I pulled out a Snap Bag Kit:
This kit makes...3 Snap Bags
Absolutely everything is included in the kit...
They are lots of FUN!
It was a great week with lots of Stitching!

Knocking the mole hills down helps to keep
our hay cleaner...

Dresden Plate....Progress
This is where things were when I went out
to the Thread Shed today...
to the Thread Shed today...
The rings and circles are turned
right sides out...
The dresden plate is ready to be stitched down
onto a background block...
I cut 18 inch blocks for the background...
They are pressed well with steam
to activate the fusible interfacing
on the back...
Now they are ready for applique' stitching:
For invisible applique', I favor
Monopoly by Superior Threads...
Even at this close range, you can barely see
the stitching...
Stitching from the back side of the block...
Then I trimmed away all of the
backing and fusible interfacing
on the back side of the block...
This removes the bulk and the block
has one single layer of fabric.
I had enough time to complete 11 blocks today...
9 more to go !
