chez zero chez zero i do stuff and sometimes i talk about it sunday march 3 2013 jellybean a thon hey there so today is my day to play along in thomas s jellybean a thon i know you don t know who i am or why the hell you re even looking at this sad old blog that s ok don t fight it baby just go with it thomas sent all 10 colorways of the jellybean print and asked for a project that incorporated them all i knew i wanted to make a quilt and i knew that wonky and improv y was about all i could handle so i started making some arrows and i love the way it came out 9 on front and the 10th print is in a little arrow on the back and then i just randomly grabbed a few for the binding i call this quilt which way did he go and i keep imagining the scarecrow from wizard of oz with his arms tangled and pointing both ways these prints are so great the color combinations are dissonant and yet somehow they end up really reading as solids it s basically magic thomas is so smart and so cool don t tell him i said that though we don t need him getting too big for his britches oh hi thomas please don t read that last sentence make sure to check out everyone else s posts too feb 25 thomas knauer feb 26 allegory lanham feb 27 tracy mooney feb 28 sara lawson march 1 rachael gander march 2 rashida coleman hale march 3 me here march 4 audrie bidwell march 5 kim niedzwiecki posted by heide at 1 00 am 5 comments wednesday february 6 2013 february what february how did that happen ok so this month for a lovely year of finishes i l be actually quilting and binding my arrow quilt that i pieced in january it will certainly be a challenge but i promised that i would so here i go posted by heide at 3 35 pm no comments monday january 28 2013 finished arrow top awful picture but at least i got it done i m not gonna lie i had my doubts posted by heide at 8 48 am 4 comments tuesday january 8 2013 lovely year of finishes so i linked up with this great group a lovely year of finishes each month we all post a goal for something we want to finish that month and then at the end of the month these crazy broads expect us to have actually finished it their optimism is so adorable this month i need to finish up a quilt top with all these wonky improv arrows game on posted by heide at 8 25 am 1 comment monday february 20 2012 sonia delaunay this post has been a looooong time coming actually any post at all on this blog has been a long time coming my poor dusty old blog i have such precious little time for creating that when i do have time i want to spend it actually creating and not writing about it you all know the drill i m sure as so many of us are in the same boat anyway last august i was down in nyc for the quilters take manhattan event hosted by the alliance for american quilts side note just found out they re doing it again this year whee at the main even i was sitting with my girl jonesie otherwise known as heather jones of olive and ollie fame and be still my heart kate spain kate showed us a copy of a book she d just gotten this book from the cooper hewitt from the sonia delaunay retrospective they held last year delaunay s work is amazingly modern and graphic and so much of it lends itself to translation into a quilt i think i actually ordered my copy of the book right then and there from my phone and as soon as it arrived i started marking pages for different works and designs that i wanted to turn into quilts this was the first one i worked on it s a gouache on wallpaper mounted on cardboard that was a design for a rug and this is my wall hanging sized quilt with vertical straight line quilting here s a close up of the quilting i did insanely dense quilting over the colored sections since the original was so sketchy and had lots of white breaking through here was my next pick this is another gouache on paper and is less yellowy than this picture here is my quilt interpretation the dimensions are sort of unusual for a quilt narrower than normal because i was following the painting pretty closely more straight line quilting too horizontal this time to echo the horizontal pattern more accurately it is quilted in the style of straight line as i am constantly proving that i am completely incapable of actually sewing a straight line here s the back with just a little bit of piecing with some leftovers josh would clearly like you all to note his support for and dedication to rock n roll i sleep with this book next to my bed and look at it almost every day i am mildly obsessed i have fabric for another quilt and have started graphing out a fourth stay tuned posted by heide at 1 34 pm 4 comments thursday march 10 2011 ceimb aromatic beef stew with butternut squash today s craving ellie in my belly recipe is aromatic beef stew with butternut squash hosted by kayte of grandma s kitchen table i had to make just a few subs to make this dish vegetarian i used a meat substitue that i haven t used before from a company in ny that i order all sorts of un meat stuff from i wasn t crazy about it which is a drag because i loved this stew and i used veggie broth instead of beef and forgot to add the sliced almonds but other than that i made the recipe as written oh and i didn t bother with the parsley and i didn t have pepper flakes so i added a bit of cayenne so um i guess not quite exactly as written i will most definitely try it again with a different meat substitute that we like more i can see this one becoming a regular winter meal i did not take a picture because i made this in a frenzy after work last night and we were a little late getting dinner on the table so it just got dished out to josh and me and gobbled in a flash delma has gotten very good about trying new things and actually asked me to give her some of this to try she liked it but not enough to ask for more than a taste but still good girl this was a great pick thanks kayte please visit kayte s blog for the recipe posted by heide at 10 54 am 4 comments labels ceimb saturday february 5 2011 i heart scones back in december i saw beth s post on proper british scones and printed out the recipe the hattonettes aren t into overly sweet breakfasts and have tried scones before and liked them though the slightly sweeter ones you get in coffee shops here in the us so i really wanted to try these last weekend i finally did and i am hooked we all loved them they really aren t sweet at all and are delicious by themselves or with butter or with a little fancy jam there s nothing we ve tried on them that has not been delicious this morning i used a small heart cookie cutter to make some little cuties the one in the pic has some bonne mama blueberry preserves in the middle nom nom nom we also have yet to try a shape that isn t completely delicious next time we will try flowers or stars and i suspect that they too will be awesome posted by heide at 2 50 pm 1 comment friday january 28 2011 ceimb fettuccine with creamy red pepper feta sauce today s craving ellie in my belly recipe is fettuccine with creamy red pepper feta sauce hosted by jessica of learning to love vegetables this was so insanely simple and so yummy i loved it definitely one of my favorite ellie recipes it makes a lot of sauce and i knew the kids wouldn t try it so i only mixed 2 servings of pasta with the sauce for our dinner last night and put the rest of the sauce in the freezer i hope it will freeze well thanks for a really great pick jessica posted by heide at 7 07 am 1 comment labels ceimb monday january 24 2011 baby gifts a good friend and his wifey had their first wee babe a few months ago and so i had to bust out some baby gifts my old stand by is burp cloths my favorite way to do these is to buy those nice thick flannel cloth diapers and just sew fabric to size flip it inside out and topstitch all around i always have some on hand so i can sew some up in a pinch if i need a baby gift not complicated but very cute it s nice to feel somewhat fancy when someone is vomiting on you in public and i made a patchwork baby blanket with minky on the back oh minky is the worst to work with cripes it s awful but is is so lovely and cuddly cozy so what are you gonna do i used a charm pack of amy butler stuff and stamped on some linen squares i picked an exerpt from favorite poem from one of our mother goose books i think it s maybe called i had a little nut tree i skipped over water i danced over sea and all the birds in the air couldn t catch me these blankets are great they re cuddly for the babes and they can be used for a play mat and then kids can use them for baby dolls i m hoping wee sylvia will love and use it for many years posted by heide at 9 59 pm 2 comments sunday january 16 2011 ceimb walnut and dried cherry bars hey ceimp ers forgive me please for this late posting this has pretty much been one of the worst weeks of my life i was incredibly ill and have barely been able to move for days total nightmare but the antibiotics are kicking in and i almost feel human again so this past week was my turn to host over at craving ellie in my belly my pick was the walnut and dried cherry bars on p 40 of so easy recipe at end of post i did not love these i see that a lot of people really did so maybe i should try them again they were a little too soft for me i d try baking them a little longer next time and maybe try a different kind of preserves i feel badly picking a recipe and then not digging it but oh well they can t all be keepers i m looking forward to reading through everyone else s posts when i
