Whats under my foot…

Setting up and organizing

organize, organize, organize, I’m getting close to being very happy with my space. There are more lights to hang, getting wires under control, and lots of organizing. With all of the storage space I am totally overwhelmed but thinking ahead. Remember those kitchen cabinets I told you about that were left in the home when we bought it? The over head cabinets are being used for AccuQuilt dies, you can see one in the photo below, the rest are under my quilt frame. Then there are the tall cabinets which is great for bolts of fabric. If I decide to keep them they will eventually be painted white because as you can see, I have enough natural wood around me.

I think I kinda like this apple basket hanging on the wall, the basket is older than me and came from an apple orchard that was closed back in the late 60’s, early 70’s. Now that I know it works I can clean the basket and decide what to put in it. There is also a lid.

Machine Embroidery

I actually found some time to play on the embroidery machine with glow in the dark thread, it amazes me. The alphabets are from Embroidery Legacy.

    Yesterday I shared my For the Birds/Create for a Cause quilt. With this finish I discovered I really do love improv quilting and learned to accept sometimes the block placements do not always work.

    The first Island Batik Challenge of the year will be a Log Cabin quilt and blog hop using one the soon to be released fabric collections. Because I’ve already made 3 of my Log Cabin Tree of Life quilts it’s time to come up with a new design. Sooo, my mind is on overtime trying to outdo the Tree of Life pattern. The first IB box of the year is scheduled to be delivered today, so I’d like to make a design decision before Friday.

    This week I have been working on a secret sewing project for Jennifer’s (Inquiriing Quilter) upcoming fabric collection with Island Batik. No sharing yet, but I think sometime at the end of April you may start seeing sneak peeks. It is definitely one collection of fabric that online swatches do no justice.

  1. Does the Glow in the Dark thread keep glowing after being washed? Just curious. I enjoy seeing how organizing your studio is coming along. Happy quiilting!
