Design Wall-May 20, 2013

My design wall has not changed since I put another UFO on it! I talked about it in this blog Asian Swap blocks

With everything the past 2 weeks it is still in the same place-nothing done! No decisions made!  I did however finish the binding on the kids bright swap block flimsy UFO

Tuesday I'll make a trip to UPS-get the quilts off, a few birthday presents along with a few other packages of things I have been promising people!
what eye candy do we see on other walls?

    Sometimes life just gets in the way but we do our best. Take care.

    Life will do that to us. I did not get near as much done the last few weeks with school in the way. Good luck for a better week.

A little to show this week. First off is a better picture of the Jelly Roll quilt. Still have not decided if I will border it or not. At this point I am thinking not. But then you never know! It doesn't have a name. It was designed by Sue who works at Honey Bee in Austin for one of their strip clubs. It's a combination of a 4 patch, 2", 4" up to 20" strips. While in the motel I also worked on quilt blocks using the MSQC Chevron u-tube video.  Here's 32 of them. Had to do a little frogging on several . there will be 40 total. Think I will make 2 small quilts-4 x 5 with a narrow border of white, then a 4 inch wide print border. One layout I am thinking of using from her video has some half blocks, so I'm not rushing to finish the last few until I get it all laid out. I used a layer cake I had on hand. It's a floral. Forget the name but probably still have the particulars some where! Have several more projects started - the motel was go...

  April 1 2025 And a month later I’m doing a blog post! March was a strange month.  The Weather was crazy- cold days, warm days. Days where you didn’t want to be out much. Smoke from the wildfires west of us,  not to mention the dust being driven to us by strong winds. And very little rain.  Our total so far for the first 3 months.  3.77 inches.  We got .6 while towns along the coast got 14 to 20 this past week. Galen wasn’t able to get out much but he did get a few pictures. He went down to our small lake one afternoon looking for Dragonflies.   While there an Eagle flew in fairly close.  He thought he had seen one a few weeks earlier but it was flying away so he wasn’t able to get any pictures.  This time he did. Eagle at Forest Creek Several times we had Cedar Waxwings in the yard feeding on our Yupon Holly bushes.   They really go after the berries. Galen managed to get one picture with them at the birdbath.  Just befo...

  Mother’s Day 2025 First off Happy Mother’s Day.  Being a dog Mom Lady wished me a happy day. Not sure what made me think of this. Many years ago- mid to late 50’s into early 60’s we almost always spent Mother’s Day by going shad fishing! We would get up early in the morning,  Mom would pack a lunch, load up Dad’s aluminum boat on to the car top carriers and we would drive to Port Deposit, MD.  Spend the day on the water fishing on the Susquehana River.  Sometimes we caught shad, sometimes not. Mom was always very careful when she fileted them- very boney.  I had not thought about that in a very long time. We were lucky and had rain earlier this week. Up to 6.66 inches for the year.   Get to keep the irrigation system off for another week. Galen was out last Sunday with a friend.   They went to an are near San Antonio.  He did get some nice pictures.  Comanche Skimmer.       Golden Cheek Warbler P...
