Lovin' the Good Stuff

Marcia Derse fabric/ Jeni Baker pattern..African fabric border finally on.....

Below is our Aoife, a few weeks till age 4...A dress made by her mother from Liberty of London fabric.

In preperation for the rope bowl demonstration, Monday, July 8, I made the final example.
I usually use batik so the fabric will not fray.  This bowl used regular fabric scraps....amazing...I love the fraying.
Making rope bowls is so very relaxing..  As I prepare examples, I am learning new techniques.

Voila my bound plaid quilt...Mary Jerz did a  great quilting job....there  is nothing like a binding to help a quilter feel warm fuzzies.
Shot cotton on the backing is so very soft.


 Pakistani camel skin lamps  I have posted my  lamps before.  Now I found an online link:

Without family and beauty and making and color...my adductor muscles would hurt much much worse when I walk.
Lovely lunch out today with friends....all of whom hurt somewhere...!!  Age, you know.......
When I am in pain like this....all I want is sugar...
I have ransacked the apartment and all I can find is some old marshmallows.
Going to start a new project instead.

Rekindling the Flame


Tonight I just could not get focused... I made fudge..
Jeeze!!
After all my finishes, I did not know where to start again.

 I made a rope bowl...not one of my finest...
However, it did the trick.
I am more relaxed and more focused...(midnight thirty...but still)
.Just love these rope bowls.

Thank you Chuck and of course, Albert for the following:
It is perfect!!!
