Little Quilt and It's NOT Perfect and That's Okay !

When I was looking through quilt tub boxes a few weeks ago,
I noticed these great colors. So yesterday I spent sometime sewing.

Quilt Delivered and on Their Bed


Quilt Delivered and on Their Bed, quilt back
The back of Son #1. I love the red. I called from the store and asked color for the backing. I was leaning to blue or green. I loved hearing red.

How to Make a Book Marker Corner - The Quilt Ladies

Pin It
Corner Book Mark
I love giving books and this bookmark makes it personal. Years ago the pre-school I worked at made these out of paper, mine are the same idea, just with fabric.


1 Heavy piece of paper, index card works well
2 Pieces of fabric 4 ½” x 4 ½”
With white glue, glue each piece of fabric to each side of the heavy card.  Let dry.



On the light color fabric, draw out a 4 Patch block, each block measuring 2” x 2”
On opposite corners draw a line corner to corner

With scissors or exacto knife, cut as shown




Score lightly the square lines,

 fold over and glue.



I’m always picking up things like this, you can use bottoms, beads, anything that is not too thick. Cut apart and glued.


Paper clip to hold until dry.

My Singer Featherweight Sewing Machine

Pin It
I knew it was in the closet and seeing it again, well...
It's been a very long time
I had to say good-bye to it's original box years ago and this carpet bag 
is perfect for it.

my singer feather weight sewing machine

A Singer Featherweight Sewing Machine
My mom gave this to me years ago and I used it for classes for years. 
She tells the story behind it.  This sewing machine was the first thing that her and my Father purchased together. She remember is being around 70.00 dollars. If they did it on payments my Grandfather would have to co-sign. They saved and purchased with cash, she said with a very large smile.  The pedal was replaced sometime ?? Mom's birthday would have been tomorrow, thinking about her.







It works wonderful 


And So Pretty
