I'm not frantic but this post may be! I'm continuing to recap my wonderful weekend.
I told you I went to the quilt exhibit at Quiltworks. Well Saturday they were having a parking lot sale. It wasn't the quilt store, just quilters who needed to get rid of some stuff. Needless to say I found a few items to come home with me.
I've made one of these, but still couldn't pass this up. Isn't it cute? I can add a few stitches and finish it up and it will make a wonderful gift.
Painted quilt block boards to put up on your house, barn, or garage.
The weather had been extremely hot and this day was too. I think they would have had more people selling if it wasn't 100 degrees!
I found some classic Pilgrim and Roy prints.
And a few other beauties I couldn't pass up.
Isn't the piece of toile pretty?
Later that day I attended the Vintage flea market at Pomegranate Home and Garden. (first Saturday of the month all summer long)
And picked up this cute little red chair. It will fit perfect in my home.
As far as any sewing......
I'm probably the only one that could read my notes on how I want to piece my quilt backs. I'm not sure I'll be able to figure it out when I get to this one! LOL
I did get one backing pieced.
And fabrics chose for one more. This is going to be for my Stars in a Time Warp top.
These sheep made their way into another pieced backing.
My son and gf have finally made a decision about where they are traveling next. (they've been traveling around the western part of the US for a month) and now they are in Boston, heading to Norway, then Denmark. My son hiked for a month in Norway and lived for a year in Denmark, so it will be fun for him to show his girlfriend around that area. We'll miss them, but we are glad they aren't heading to South America. (not yet anyway!)
And my Instagram feed for the week.
Adventure awaits! make it a great weekend!
