Quilting Sketch Book.....FUN

Here are a few designs from

my Quilting Sketch Book:

It is FUN for me to draw wavy horizontal

lines in the sketch book...

then fill in the sections with different designs.

This mindless drawing helps me determine

what designs will work under the needle.

I chose these two designs and paired

them together.....they flow nicely.

This looks too busy...

but, if it were stitched with matching thread,

it would look great....lots of texture!

Draw out some wavy horizontal lines...

then fill them in and see what you

come up with.

Coleus

This is where we have been eating our dinner...

The grape arbor is big enough for 2

Even after spending the day in the hay field or 

working cattle,

Gunnr still finds time to play with his toys 

in the evenings.

Working Cattle.....July 2013

Not a lot of Quilting  going on

 in the Thread Shed this time of year...

This week we are working the cattle...

I come along to do the grunt work... 

filling ear tag pliers and syringes.

I hope to be back in the Thread Shed

with something FUN under the needle real soon!
