Wonderful Sunny Tuesday

Good morning everyone. It is a little cool; of course...but sunny and so much snow has melted. I have appointments in the city today; so won't get much sewing in today.  I wanted to explain why I have had so many little items posted lately instead of my quilts.  Since I hand quilt all of the large quilts; it takes some time.
I don't know if I mentioned it or not; but I open a little shop here in my home during the summer and fall months.  It is getting closer all the time...so; this is what I am squeezing in while hand quilting now. Around the end of April (depending on the weather)...I have to have enough large quilts and a small assortment of
little things for people to stop by and have a look at. So; in comes the pillows, wall hangings, table runners,etc.  I have been doing this for a number of year; and is a great way to meet people...I only put the larger items on my website....but not everyone can take a large quilt back with them...enters the little things...lol.  So; there you go now...my summer is tied up here at home...except on really really hot days; I take my Solstice and take off with the top down....enjoy your day...here is a pic of what I played around with yesterday....

  2. Both are so beautiful! I wish I had more hours in a day (although I do love working with my patients as a dental hygienist, I would love, love, love more time to do sewing, drawing, crafting, etc!

  3. Hello Marjorie! I like so much all your pillows! But especially this with the bear!!! You have designed it so well with the 'traditional' patchwork triangles which creates so well the nature around! The bear and the tree are beautiful! I wonder how you have made them because I just made an eyer and tale for a dog and now I try to make ball and few leaves - difficult!
    I'm happy to hear that you open a shop at your home!
