So on and sew on!
What a marvelous time
this sewing adventure is !
It seems to run the whole course
of joy and sorrow. Got a call
for quilts for health care heroes
in this time of trial, (the sorrow)
but the creative outlet and pleasure
from stitching is so great!
Now on to the stitching!
Cleaned off my sewing desk
yesterday by spending the whole
evening crumbing up this pile of
scraps! Notice the new verb there!
Then, since I seemed to be on a roll
and my featherweight was humming,
I worked on emptying a basket of
strings and pieces! Yay!
It saves a lot of counting time later.
My daily phone friend
and I, even looked up the birthdates
of our featherweights! Mine is
a 1950 machine and hers is
two years older!
May continue stringing today after a bit of
house and yard work. We have
a visit from the family Drs. too,
( Phd chemists) so busy day for me!
Finishing up the quilting on
the last of the florals too!
beautiful string quilts and Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDelete*string blocks, I meant to write...LOL
DeleteLOVE the play of light in those gorgeous dark Crumb blocks, Deb!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks! and how sweet to stitch for your health care heroes!
ReplyDeleteLove string blocks, those look great. I've been hand mending some gaping holes in hubby's jeans with old fabric from a worn-out pair of my own which tore a hole in the back. Now he is decent to wear these a few more times.
