KEEPING BUSY :)

Oh, I just LUV chenille. I made this chenille scarf for my sons fiance. You have to fold your 3 yard piece of home spun fabric a certain way and then cut all your strips on the bias.
I taught a bunch of ladies in my quilt group at the rec center how to make this.

Next up is my mystery quilt block made from my fabric at the lock-in we just did last sat.
Most everyone does not get the quilt done but you get a good start on it.

Then around 8:30 pm that night Theresa and Sharon (the ladies who design the patterns & put this fun activity together) show you what your quilt pattern will look like. I chose to make the throw size (this brown quilt is the throw size) but, you could make the queen or a king size.

I think the one Theresa made is a queen size (quilt pic below). Oh yeah, and you had the choice to do the dark version or the light version. I chose the dark version like the brown quilt and Theresa's is the light version.

MYSTERY QUILT


Saturday March 12 is the day for my Mystery Quilt Lock-In. Got my fabric, hope I made the right choices. About 55-60 quilting ladies will be sewing and munching our buns off. My motto is the faster you sew the more calories you'll burn. LOL. This fun will go from 10 am to 10 pm Saturday.
