Brent moved a few plants from the garden into the basement and placed them under the grow lights. He harvested these with promises of more to come.
He also planted some Indigo for me and it has taken off so I may be able to try some fabric dyeing soon😍
I was puttering around and had the doors open because I had been cooking bacon. Closed them and went to work in my studio....some movement caught the corner of my eye and by the time I grabbed my iPad and ran outside this is all I got...close call I would say!
I have been stitching on my embroidery machine almost non-stop. I have been so fascinated by these Silhouette landscape designs that are so gorgeous and it gives me the opportunity to use some of my dyed fabrics and a lot of thread that I have collected in the past year! The only problem I have with these blocks is what to do with them when I have finished the stitching? ...sigh...I guess it will come to me later.
This one is done with one ombré fabric. I am thinking of using this one in Art Guild for the word of the month which is “soar”
Top fabric is from snow dyeing, then it’s the marigold, then the fresh indigo leaf, then snow dyeing again
There are 20 of these blocks in total...oh boy...
Took a break from the landscapes and worked on these today. Pattern is called “Baby it’s Cold Outside” by Anita Goodesign. His patterns are amazing. He also designed the landscapes.
Three more to go on this snowflakes set.
Went for a drive with one of my quilting ladies and during the drive our conversation turned to using up scraps. So this is what she suggested that I do. I have gone around a couple more times since and then got bored! 😂
This is the DIME door of the month (sew-along). I post them each month on the website and I’ve been mentioned on the live utube show everytime. 🥰
The floor fabric is from our rust dyeing workshop.
Our quilting guild donates placemats to the Meals on Wheels program at Christmas. This year I came across a kit that purchased several moons ago and I decided it was time to use them. So the back of mine are Halloween themed and the front is Christmas fabric.
This is what we call fabric chicken....when the fabric is placed waaaay too close to the edge! I won 🤪
....and a rare moment with Mitsi
