timeless reflections june 2013 thursday june 27 2013 two fnishes finally michelangelo said every block of stone has a statue inside it rome 2007 and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it awhile ago i gazed at my bag of scraps and thought inside that bag there is a quilt i just have to find it after some inspiration from lori at humble quilts and her quilt alongs this is what emerged candy land 22 x 26 all those little scraps were just waiting to be sewn together to create this design i finally got it machine quilted with a diagonal star pattern and then bound it s bright and happy the second quilt i finished is also a sal sew along from humble quilts it s been sewn together but waiting for quilting inspiration humble abundance 30 x 42 it started out as one block then two and finally six i knew it wasn t finished until then it s machine quilted in the ditch and i did feathers in the borders which don t show up except on the back but it was good to practice them anyway notice the thin strip of fabric on the backing that s what happens when you need a yard of fabric for the backing and sometime in the past you ve cut off a short 2 inch strip humbling but it was the perfect fabric for the backing there s no difference in looking in a bag of scraps or a pile of fat quarters or at yardage for a potential quilt it s in there you just have to discover it i saw the angel in the marble and carved until i set him free michelangelo until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 14 comments labels 2013 quilts monday june 24 2013 indulge since i ve been home and been on a completely different schedule with different activities it s been a challenge to stay focused there s so many wonderful quilt projects and ideas i want to try or at least get back to maybe my approach shouldn t be one idea at a time but lots all at one time just stack them up and start sewing and enjoy the high but where do you begin what do you put at the top of the pile something old like the roseville album quilt something new like all this fun new fabric or something i ve already started hst for a red and white ocean wave or new patterns that i ve been thinking about or better yet just waiting to see what the day brings but whatever i do i ll just grab life by the tail or head swallow big and smile and be happy analogy graciously given by the heron in the backyard until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels projects thursday june 20 2013 i m where have you ever found yourself driving and suddenly thought how did i get here probably not a good driving technique but it does happen last week i was playing on my ipad and thought what would happen if i googled myself what would show up suddenly i found myself in a very unexpected place and had to think for a moment how did i get here see where i ended up and then i found myself here oh my i was on ebay and i was vintage how did i get there here s the story about 4 months ago i did a major purge throughout the entire house 2 pickup loads to the dump and 2 pickup loads to our local goodwill i had included these two pieces they were perfect but not what i decorated with anymore i was willing to send them on to a new home and i guess i am in an indirect way as of yet no buyers that makes me feel sad lesson you never know where you might end up it s a weird world out there until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels ebay stitchery vintage monday june 17 2013 off to the antique fair i always look forward to a wonderful antique fair in denver called old glory there s always so much to see and plenty of temptation shabby chic remains strong everyone s booth has beautiful displays i could have bought all of these how about you red chairs were everywhere it s a tendy color there weren t as many quilts as in the past and those that were available had a hefty price tag but they re always beautiful none the less i did find two treasures this sweet vintage kindergarten sized chair besides evoking school time memories it will be the perfect little chair for sanford to stand on to be able to reach the sink to wash his hands brush his teeth and basically play in the water i suppose the chair could be sanded and painted but look how the varnish has worn away from so many little people sitting on it or how the paint has worn away from the legs of the chair as those same little students put their feet under the chair and wrapped their legs around the metal legs sometimes it s nice to leave the memories there the other piece was this simple primitive wooden basket there s always room for another basket and think what it can hold during the summer months it s fun to wander through an antique fair flea market or every a few garage sales you never know what treasures you ll find happy treasure hunting until next time posted by kyle at 6 00 am 5 comments labels antiques old glory thursday june 13 2013 a daughter steps in i ve stepped away from the computer for a few days and invited my daughter elizabeth to be a guest blogger hope you enjoy her thoughts how do you say happy father s day to one of the key people in your life i think for the three of us girls it is always hard for us to find enough words to express our thanks and love to our dad his continuing devotion and support to us as we have grown up and stepped out into the world has never lagged even as we have all gotten married and have new men in our lives no one can ever replace our dad this is never more evident than during home improvement projects we love our husbands dearly but they are still in the learning phase since moving into our first home 3 years ago there have seemed to be an endless supply of projects so who do we call daddy of course small projects helping with the garden and big projects b u ilding us a new front porch amazing right we all appreciate everything he does for us from building on our homes to building our character he is caring loving hardworking and the best father three girls could ever ask for many years ago today now he is imparting all of his wisdom and love to the newest generation sanford and pa i know they will love and respect him as much as we do happy father s day daddy until next time elizabeth posted by kyle at 6 00 am 4 comments labels father s day forward stitch backstitch home subscribe to comments atom
