Does anyone else dislike "stories "? I can understand if it is for a sale or a contest that expires in an hour. But if you have something to say or show (show and tell), why not have it in a permanent post? If I decide to see what someone shared in a story, often it disappears. Never to be found again. I just had that problem.

Fossilized skull/jaw bone under blacklight from my husband's collection that I think is cute.

1st "C" curve unit joined. 1 more leaf to applique after these units are joined, then more rounds to add. Exciting to see this coming together after being packed up for 5 years.

I stumbled across a quilter that also creates seam

I stumbled across a quilter that also creates seam rippers from old silver, hollow handle knives. Bob and I agreed to transform Nanny's silver plate knives that we had inherited. We typed up small double-sided family history to include in the packaging and with the help of @just_jess_jewelry_and_more , we created a small personal family heirloom that we gave to the descendants of Nanny. We think this makes a wonderful keepsake.

Another beauty by @louellenquilts quilted by me. She named it using the quilting design as inspiration to Sally by the Gulf Shore. The colors say beach house to me.

The final stitches completed today. A few weeks s

The final stitches completed today. A few weeks shy of being a WIP / waiting for 2 years. I originally had hopes I could make this completely at home but it wasn't meant to be. 3 sewing machines and several locations later and she is done! I have my backing, will make my binding today then add her to the quilting schedule. Woohoo. Fun quilt for me.

I really don't need any help at this stage. I need to sew as fast as possible so I can have a little R &R tonight too. That isn't possible with a kitty holding down one section firmly. She gave it her cat scan approval, had me check and rethread 3xs to be sure her teeth were flossed well and my machine was threaded correctly. Then I suppose she got bored. I have been gone for a few days. She has been glued to me all day. How can I say no.

Another quilt top made at Dad's. Thankful that I have the ability to sew camping, at dads and of course retreats but I really am wanting to spend time in my sewing room at home. Someday! But I'm not ready to retire just yet. #quilts #zenchic #redgeese #flyinggeese #twistedgeese
