UFO WED!
UFO Wed saw 6 people attending today! Karen was busy sewing on a new project for herself on her Brand New Sewing Machine! With the guidance of Deb and myself she was soon becoming familiar with all the new features of her modern new sewing machine! Ya Hoo! Go Girl go!
Kim dropped by and showed us her beautiful Horse Wall hanging she has made for a friend...it was gorgeous! The Horse was leaping out of the frame of the wall hanging...very effective!! She also showed us the next two projects she was going to begin and we had fun helping her select her fabrics!
Deb dropped by and helped Pamela arrange the next quilt that Pamela will be working on. Deb did an excellent job of arranging the feature blocks on the design wall and we picked out the border and slashing fabrics so I should be able to begin sewing the quilt blocks tomorrow!
Coralee and Susanne dropped in and visited with us all. Susanne selected some blue flannel for backing on her next project! ..We hope she will be able to find her sewing machine soon as due to reno's in her home.. her house is pretty Topsy Tervey! Soon! Soon! it will all be finished and she will have her sewing space back!
Airieyl stopped by and sewed up a awesome cute little Trick or Treat bag for Mattea to take with her trick or treating this year. Quicker than you can say Jack Robinson, she had the fabric bag cut out and sewn up....no pattern was used!
And to top it all off the Delivery Man brought 10 boxes of new fabrics! Wow!
A jammed packed fun afternoon of chatting, sewing and sharing of ideas and pearls of wisdom were had by all!

Fall Colours are Here!
The brisk fall air lingers late into the day now, and the night time air has a sharp bite to it.
The Squirrels are scampering to fill each nook and cranny with cone seeds, and building a nice soft nest to rest in during the long winter months!
From my little studio window the signs of fall are evident !
Time to choose and plan my Christmas Quilting Projects! ...and YES...Finish some from last year!!
The new line of Christmas Fabrics both in prints and batiks along with the Santa Panels have my imagination whirling with excitement!
UFO Wed. should be a busy and hopefully productive day!
Drop in and see what we are doing if you wish!
Supper King in "Black and White!"
This Awesome Quilt was made by Kim! ...she asked me to quilt it for her as it would have been quite a task quilting it on her home sewing machine as the finished top measured out as a Supper King size ...measuring a 13.50 ft. in width, and aprox. 14.5 ft. in length!
Kim had a quilting design picked out and I just had to follow the ideas and go with it!
On the wide "black on black" print that bordered the quilt top,bottom and sides, I chose a free motion geometric style design that was both fun and quite effective!
It was a real pleasure to have the experience of quilting this quilt!

Quilting Season just Around the Corner!?
Wow! What a beautiful fall day it was today! The Fall Colours are out in full splendour! and the sound of the geese and cranes are clear in the evening sky!
Time to once again think about dusting off the sewing machine and start planning those quilting projects!
Over the Summer Bolts and Bolts of fabric have been marching into my little studio, in hope of inspiring many exciting new quilts, table runners, wall hangings (some great Santa Panels to make the season more merry!) and lap quilts or anything else that might come to mind!
Check out the side bar to view some of the fabrics that have arrived!
