LOL Jelly Roll

My picture today is the next Jelly Roll Quilt I’m making.

Our niece and nephew spent last weekend with us and I let Isabelle pick out the fabric she wanted for her Jelly Roll Quilt.

She choose the LOL by Me & My Sisters Designs for Moda Fabric.

I had bought it at one of our local quilt shops and I was happy she choose this one because it’s very bright and cheerful.

Personal stuff (aka health update) …instead of retyping it here … I’ve updated my health page with all the details, click here.

I still have a sore throat and my tummy does not like what I’ve eaten after my tests so I’ll leave you for now … See ya!

Miss Kate Flannels Rag Quilt

April 5, 2015 by Angie 5 Comments

This is what I’ve been working on this week … a Rag Quilt using the Miss Kate Flannels.

I’m giving this quilt away to one lucky person over on my Chic n Scratch website. It’s going to be an ordering incentive for the month of April and everyone that orders will get one ticket per $25. (Laura and I will take turns writing the names each day.)

I will work on getting a better picture …. it was cloudy today!

Personal stuff …. the last I spoke I think I mentioned a cat scan …. no results yet …but …. it took them five sticks to find a vain…. they finally used my wrist. You do not want to see my arms ….. five pokes from them … one from blood work on Monday and another from blood work Friday before and ….. I slipped with the scissors and cut myself … as you can imagine … it’s a scary sight!

I hope you had a Happy Easter! We had our niece and nephew in from Indiana … we had an awesome visit with them … but I’m totally exhausted!!

See ya!

p.s. Isabelle picked out her fabric this weekend …. so I’m going to start working on her Jelly Roll Quilt … I’ll start showing pictures soon!

Bernina Activa 230

April 3, 2015 by Angie 3 Comments

I loved reading everyones response to the question of what kind of sewing machine they have and the pros and cons!!

So much so that I’m going to continue asking people to share. Click here to leave your response on my original post.

I’m not in the market for a new machine …. yet … but ….. when our lake house is finished …. my Bernina Activa 230 will be staying there.

The Bernina Activa 230 was the machine that I carried back and forth to our old lakehouse … in our new house I’ll have a small sewing room … right off the living room and I can’t wait for it to be finished so that I can sew for days.

We have a rule of no video games … and no work unless it’s absolutely necessary at the lakehouse. In the past, I had a hard time following that rule …. I typically can only last about 3 days and then I go a bit stir crazy and find a way to go home. But with my very own space to sew I think I’ll be more likely to stay longer.

I’m working on a Rag Quilt as a giveaway on Chic n Scratch ….. I’ll be sharing pictures soon (I’ve made very little progress … hopefully to fit a few hours in this weekend).

I have an Cat Scan in a few hours ….. need to get in the shower.

p.s. I posted some info on how to purchase Instantly Ageless and it was wrong. I will fix it as soon as I get all the details (the packing and prices just changed … hence the reason for some of the confusion).
