I am on a roll(love having the bobbin work done already)..so I realized that since I am using the same colors for my hearts, I can consolidate/cheat :mrgreen: It turned out allright I think.
|
Beautiful, Candi.
|
Well, yes you can!! What a smartie you are! It looks just great that way! Your bobbin work is really lookin' good...you picked that up so quickly too, great job!
|
Thanks Judy and Pat.

Candi,
I'm having another duh moment......How clever (and time saver) plus looks great to boot..... I'm so anal, I never think of these things , I have to wait and see it then copy someone else! |
mmm, candi, these colors are going to play so well with the others, woo hoo. :thumbup:
The wonderful thing about all the clever things you all come up with...we all learn for future use. Course I don't see meece-self trying the bobbin work just yet. I'm curious...what makes doing it from the bobbin, so different? Your sewing from the back side right? Somebody really ought to come up with a stem stitch look alike on these machines,...but then...the mouse would have to have a new machine,...can't do that! (need fabrics and notions more...and grandbaby outings!!! :XD: ) |

that's good info, candi. I'm just not that brave a mouse.
When I first started quilting... It took me forty forevers to cut my fabric...I'm talking months! I had been sewing since I was 10! Just hate messing things up, but it's been a real learning experience with quilting. Ye shall mess up, and you shall learn to live with it and go forward if you want to quilt. Good thing you can also make quilts out of scraps :XD: |
Well, miss mouse, thats what they mean when talking about lemonade!

Jeannie Thanks so very much, luv! Wasn't Tom, the black kitty avitar, swaying to a lovesong, or looking through a fishbowl ? If you pronounce "Phydeaux" fast - well !!!!LOL! In any case, ITs a real cutie pie! ...and luv, you don't know it but I sent in some shoecats to the FC swap, and will send in some shoedogs to the FD swap...The whole thing is a wonderful laugh, and I enjoyed it immensly! There is a photo of a shoecat in the FC swap pages too...I am currently contemplating how to arrange some of my Funky Cat blocks that I got back into two wallhangings. One around a kelly green tie-togther color. I am so glad that I found this board, and it is people like you that make it special! Jeannie Ps, I was just lurking - because the blocks are so pretty. I just don't have time for everything I would like to do. :-) |
Yes, you are right...Tom was the black kitty avatar that I used right before this one~ Phydeaux.
The other day, I was wondering how the shoedogs were coming! :) |

My computer just would not respond so here I am again. Hope I can get block 21 on here. Sorry now it has gone in twice-computers at times seem to have a mind all their own.
|
All the blocks are so pretty. They are going to make beautiful quilts! I am anticipating seeing them when they are finished!
|
Flossy, another beautiful block. You are quite experienced at hand applique, aren't you? It shows in your lovely work. Can't wait to see the next one - &&&& - when you get the center 16 done & together!
|
hi, taking my meds like a good mouse, but only messing and gauming with the fabrics, on 'rest' orders and don't really have any energy.
ok, so much for mousie updates. florence, your block is super yummy, gf! :thumbup: |
Florence, your block is beautiful! Your work is just stunning and I love the layout of your color choices. Very very pretty!

You got me, what is "gauming"? and this is not the block with curls!!! hoo boy I guess I'd better be off to go to bed! I know why I stopped - it is a pretty block - all of them are! Jeannie |

Jeannie "what you believe IS your reality." gauming is a little like putzing, finagling...slightly different meaning there...playing...you get the gist ;-) If you use the phrase and your talking about children...somebody's being a little naughty :-) I think of it as doing something while in your own little world...not trying to be real productive, but actually having peace of mind and contentment is quite an accomplishment. Geesh,...even a mild fever can't keep this mouse quiet for long :lol: |
