Blue and White Quilt with Hand Quilting

Pin It

Pulling out quilts this morning and here's one of my favorites. I've been working on putting a new website together and book, this will probably be the cover shot...used in some way. I will get it all put together and share soon.

I've learned through the years that the way to a Quilter's heart is through hand quilting. This is my, "I can talk the talk, quilt the quilt," quilt. HA ! 

I've seen grown woman, sigh, giggle and try to hold their fingers back from touching this quilt.  I cannot tell you the joy is brings me.

It started out as a baby quilt, but it has been put to work as my opening for most speaking.
I can HAND quilt the quilt ! !

The only color that just didn't work for me was the black belt and I couldn't find anything I liked, so I just left it off.

Here's a look at one of the 16 blocks ! 
It worked !

Adding MY Painted Flowers to Doorway Glass

Pin It

I have redone the glass at our front door. A few of the neighbors have put the reflection paper in...

but I couldn't just do that ! 

Here's what I've been working on, making home mine.

Off to Lowes (not a paid mention) measurements in hand. Wanted it to be easy to bend in. I needed nine inches, but this was cut eight inches and they cut my 80 inches. Board is just under 1/4" thick.

This is why the board had to bend, I didn't want nails, used the plastic nooks so it can be taken up or down as I like. Would like to do more for seasons.

FROM the Outside, How loud do you think the condo association will YELL ?  I NEVER mention what I do to them. Just let them notice on their own.

p.s. Would LOVE to paint this side too, but I'm going to wait and see, maybe picking my battles a bit?
