Pacific International Quilt Festival

We had a great time at the show and enjoyed seeing lots of friends and viewing fabulous quilts.  So easy to see everything at PIQF…check it out next year.  PIQF2009 Here is a part of our little travelling Mercantile Store neat and tidy before the tide of shoppers who had a wonderful time finding treasures we brought along.  Our friend Julie is having a quiet moment before manning the cash register.  A nice show!RainbowOnLucyThe morning after the show it was a little foggy and sunny too.  A beautiful double rainbow appeared and seems to be settled on Lucy, the motor home.  We checked for the fabled pot of gold but didn’t find it underneath or inside either!  Oh well, someday maybe.

Keep a look out for your pot of gold – enjoy!

New Christmas Freebie for you

It is now only 25 days to the BIG Christmas Day.  Whip up a few tea towels or make ornaments with our December Freebie design . I embroidered Santa holding a mini Christmas tree on a Sage Green striped tea towel.  He only took a couple of hours one night to complete.  A hint for you to speed your embroidery.  Thread a crewel embroidery needle for each of the colors in your design.  You won’t always be pulling the thread out and changing color.  This little cutie would make a great ornament too.  Just do the embroidery on muslin and finish in your favorite way.  FUN! I used our handy dandy Transfer-Eze to print the Freebie Santa and finger press on our Dunroven House tea towel.  The Freebie design can be put on your light box to trace directly onto the fabric – BUT – toweling is a little thicker and rougher than muslin.  Using Transfer-Eze solves the problem.  The smooth Transfer-Eze film put on your towel gives you a nice de...

Designing by Candle Light

Here is my new mode of designing – by candle light! A power outage for many hours in the middle of the night to late morning.  I gathered some nice brass candle sticks and got to work…..I’m an early bird!  When the sun began to rise over Clear Lake I was able to snap a picture. Not recommended for long sessions of thinking and drawing but OK at the time!   Got a couple of ideas down on paper to finalize and get stitching for the arrival of our new fabrics….they are due to arrive in December some time – YAY. Oh, by the way….remember our RedWork SALE continues today and is over tomorrow. Visit the RedWork Category and pick your BBD Pattern and make your RedWork Challenge design.  Enjoy some quality Embroidery time!
