timeless reflections november 2012 friday november 30 2012 i only have eyes for you everyone has probably had a favorite toy that was loved unconditionally you slept with it took in the car it was with you throughout the day my little guy sanford is in love with stanley a bear that was given to him that was a promotion for habitat for humanity to lure sanford into his bed for a nap we take a moment to search for stanley and then lo and behold there he is already in bed waiting to snuggle it s a great game that continues to work sanford s newest greeting is to chew on stanley s face must be a special guy kind of greeting so it became necessary to change stanley s eyes but neither the bear nor the boy seemed to notice or care they re still the best of friends until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels sanford wednesday november 28 2012 the project process plan way back in january the quilty buddies embarked on a wonder plan the 11 project process plan the idea was to choose 11 projects that had been looming in the depths of each of our quilting studios and progress them forward we each made a list and numbered each project each month a number was drawn and that was the item we were suppose to work on it didn t mean you had to finish it although many of us did but do just enough to see that it wasn t in the same spot as before maybe that literally meant moving it from one shelf to another well out of the eleven things on my list i worked on and finished seven i liked how this plan worked for me it was my own self motivation plan i love lists and i love crossing things off lists so what about the 4 that were left i m not sure if i can rally the q buddies to do it again but i think i will revisit the list adding and subtracting items and start again in january until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 6 comments labels the 11 project progress plan monday november 26 2012 the summer olympics are offically over just because the summer olympics ended in august doesn t mean that the whole thing has been over i ve been stitching along with other sporting events and have finally completed my tribute to the 2012 summer olympics triumphal journey 72 x 72 the quilt was also part of my 11 project progress plan which was part of the quilty buddies plan to move 11 older project forward it s a great pattern from minick and simpson called lizzy s big flowers i machine appliqued the stems but hand appliqued the other pieces it was machine quilted with whimsical loops and stars while the border has a funky feather design i found some white 50 s style summer buttons that set the center of the stars off my dilemma had been what to do with the 28 one inch berries per block i didn t want to applique all of those otherwise i might be working on it when the next summer olympics rolled around a friend suggested the perfect solution wool i fused on the berries and attached a button in the center of each for extra good measure i didn t even buttonhole stitch around the edges finishing it was my triumphal journey another quilt completed and crossed off my never ending list i loved working on it and loved how turned out hurray i crossed the finish line until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 7 comments labels olympics the 11 project progress plan friday november 23 2012 more celebrations the day after thanksgiving could have you feeling like this or like this but we have more birthdays to celebrate may 2012 happy birthday kate and jessica what a year you ve had until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 1 comment labels birthdays jessica kate wednesday november 21 2012 a milestone birthday all birthdays are special but there are certain birthdays that have come to be known as milestones yesterday was a very special day it was sanford s first birthday celebration it was a simple family celebration with a curious george theme it s all about the theme of course cupcakes are the dessert of choice monkey cupcakes sanford s own cupcake was a snow monkey no chocolate yet we even had the florida kids here visiting it was a special birthday maybe mostly for nana until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels birthdays sanford monday november 19 2012 i went fabric shopping i had an extra day at home this weekend and decided i needed to clear off my cutting table to make room for other things on the top of the pile was my second mountain trail quilt again it was a scrap attack project but this time it s with brighter more contemporary colors and designs you might recognize some of the designers this is not my usual color palette but through the years of making things for kiddos or for store samples i had enough scraps to make this mini the issue was i didn t have enough for any kind of border 2 sided or more oh no i had to go fabric shopping i headed to the shop in town called mama said sew after which moda s designers sweetwater named one of their current line this shop caters to the younger crowd and carries a more contemporary style of fabric i auditioned fabric and auditioned more i couldn t get a sense of what to do larger bold print warm or cool some made the raspberry color trail too dominate a light fabric was washed out others were just yuk maybe it was just one of those day where nothing seemed right but finally i found a piece freshcut by heather bailey jelly beans i think it works let s climb the big rock candy mountain 22 5 x 27 5 look how the pink is less dominate and how it takes on a warmer orange color this is not my trick photography fabric will do that it s just what i wanted it to do maybe i ll have time to quilt it soon but for now it s done until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels quilts scraps friday november 16 2012 turkey jack it s been many many thanksgivings ago that turkey jack came to be a special part of my thanksgiving decorations turkey jack 30 tall i don t remember the pattern designer or exactly when he was made but i do remember the fun my friends and i had making turkey jacks the instructions were long and involved and included sewing painting stuffing making clothes and all the other details that makes jack so great rather than each of us work on our own we assembly lined production each person had a portion to do and then we put all the parts together and all the turkey jack came into existence he s my thanksgiving decorations for this year and seeing i don t cook a turkey for the holiday he loves to stay around and just hang out with the family until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels thanksgiving turkey jack wednesday november 14 2012 i finished the trail at the end of september lori at humble quilts began a quilt along with a quilt she was calling mountain trails i m a slow hiker i know but i ve finished one of the quilts that i had started i challenged myself to a scrap attack and to use only the fabrics that were in my scrap bag and here s one of the quilts 21 5 x 22 5 follow the cheez it trail remember i had help choosing just the right fabrics with the trail done in a cheddar color and the shape a small square all i could see were cheez it crackers making a trail i found a great fabric in my stash to use on the back can you tell how old this fabric is good grief it s 20 years old already time to use some it don t you think other quilters who are faster hikers than i am have posted their quilts here i have one more quilt partly sewn i ll let you know when i finally get to the end of that trail but until then happy trails to you till we meet again until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 11 comments labels creativity quilts stash monday november 12 2012 send a little warmth i know many quilters have already seen victoria findlay wolfe s of bumble bean inc appeal and drive for quilts and blankets for those who were affected by hurricane sandy i ve donated to this group before it was easy and it made me feel like i was making a difference in someone s life with a token of warmth and friendship i m sending this quilt 54 x 72 yes it is halloween motif but i figure some kiddo will think that it s fun it s was a pattern that was available from maywood fabrics and the fabrics were designed by bonnie sullivan i made it in 2007 as a store sample and it s never been used it needed a home check out the information here if you would like to contribute it s a small way to help quilter s have such big hearts until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 3 comments labels charity friendship quilts friday november 9 2012 howling coyotes one thing i was looking forward to on our mini retreat was a full night s sleep but it was not to be what do crying babies have in common with howling coyotes they both think 3 00 am is a good time to start they are both very good at a long continuous howl and they both seem to do it for no apparent reason as i laid in bed listening to the coyotes i smiled and knew the same thing was probably happening in denver until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 4 comments labels baby life forward stitch backstitch home subscribe to comments atom welcome kyle welcome you
